Yes, Revelation 12 strings! Looking good! I wish I had a white one! Or that I could at least try one somewhere close to me (meaning without the need to step in a plane!)
And congrats on your multiple new guitars! Enjoy!

If you still need another Japanese guitar, there's a Domino Californian 12 String on Reverb at the moment. :whistle: (no affiliation)

OP: how's the Dano 12-string? I'm looking at one at the moment. Eric Haugen's video with it was great.

Right now it's still in a box, about 30 feet and a flight of stairs away from me. I've got the Rivolta and the Revelation out and tuned up, and plan on plugging in & testing out those two tonight.

Yamaha and Danelectro will follow when I get a minute.

I'll post when I have impressions & opinions & good pics!

I had a Korean-made dano-12 for about six months several years ago. It sounded nice and played well, the neck was quite confortable for a 12-string. It was a bit neck-heavy, but that's to be expected. However, I didn't keep because I couldn't make the unison G-strings stay in tune with each other. It was the weirdest thing and I don't remember exactly why, maybe it was my own incompetence that was causing the problem, but I just couldn't intonate them.

Looking forward. If I could find one of the Rivoltas locally, I'd buy it.

Yeah, I guess you're not the only one with tuning issues on 12-strings!
