oops had to correct email... Been playing for almost 40 years now with a recent 12 year hiatus. Decided to pick up guitar again and, damn do I miss playing. Anyway stashed in the garage with all my guitars amps etc was my old El Degas F209 12 String. It needed a new bridge and a tuning key. Had a craftsman in Pueblo CO fix er up and she sounds great. More than great actually. I had never really given much thought to either the name or how good this guitar really sounds. I originally traded a Fender maple guitar neck for the 12 string in 72. My friend had only owned the guitar for a couple months when the trade was made and I've had it ever since. As I said really hadn't paid any attention to the name of the guitar over the years and now with the internet i checked it out. Appears that El Degas is a respected name. Anybody else have this guitar? Can anyone tell me more about this particular (F209 12 string) model or about El Degas in general? Thanks Steve
