Poem - Pacemaker 12 String Acoustic 1615

Pacemaker 12 String Acoustic 1615

This is an older guitar, 

and is really my mom's, 

although I play it a lot. 

It's at least ten years old if not older. 

I want to say it's an Alder neck, 

but I'm not positive. 

Good action, 

pretty 

darn 

thin 

neck

When I'm playing something acoustic, 

I always use this thing, 

despite it being a twelve string, 

which kind of chunks things up and makes arpeggios and picking hard. 

I don't have a six string acoustic, 

so this thing makes do. 

Good for just strumming regular chords, but it makes barres kind of chunky sounding. 

Not great for body tapping, but  

Very full sound

it's got good action. 

very, very well made, 

with no flaws at all 

right away. 

It has warped a little over the time we've had it, 

it does well live, and it seems to be holding up 

It hasn't worn at all, the finish. 

It does great.
