Is that ebony back and sides, I looked for ages trying to find one in a 12 string to try before buying a T5-12 which I was disappointed in somewhat. I took a real bath selling it but it ended well, I got a wonderfull LO5-12 that I absolutely love. I did really want to try a ebony CR25 12 though, just none in my neck of the woods at the time.

A red cedar top - thats interesting. I've never played anything with that wood - although I've built a few things with it. Beautiful grain and color. I remember thinking it would make a nice guitar top - How's it sound?

Great shots, what kind of camera do you use?

Michael, the CR part of the C25/CRH stands for Cedar over Rosewood the H is for the Herringbone, I just recently sold the one I had.  As far as I know they don't make a twelve string in the pro series model, they have a dreadnaught, the concert size body above (both Cedar over Rosewood) and they just recently came out with a all Koa model (35th anniversary limited edition).

Here's the one I was looking for but I have my L05-12 now, but I was sure wanting to try this one.

That is a beautiful looking guitar Michael. The Pro series is assembled at the custom shop in the US but some of the parts come from the china shop where they make the atlas series.

[Mr_LV19E]

Just checked their website, they don't make the pro series anymore.

Just as well, Jim Holler set up my LO5-12 with the strings level at the top and intonated it all the way up. The Mahogany was likely a better choice for what I wanted in my 12 anyway. Not too twangy, warmer and clean, I think the eboney might have been a little high in the overtones like some of the rosewoods I played but I sure did like the looks, and every pro series I could find played very well.

I am a happy camper with my 2 Larrivees.
