Wow; great sound for a "parlour" size. I'm listening to the YouTube demo from 2011, with Paul Brett playing both the 6- and 12-string models. Are those still only available in the U.K.?
I've still got the old Yamaha acoustic (with a sound hole pickup) that was my first "real" guitar, and my only axe for many years. In 2005, I added a Jay Turser Hawk-12 solid-body electric, and not long ago, a Fender Villager.
I really need to work on fingerstyle playing.
Have fun with your new Vintage VE8000PB-12.
