Here's one you don't see every day - 12 string AL2500 with mini-hums. $269 with a hard case is a pretty good price in the current market. MGR always jacks up the shipping, but they are taking offers.

Ha - looks like they are trying the reverse price strategy and marked it up to $274.99. Reverb surcharge to cover the data loss incident?

FWIW, here's the original product listing:

I wonder why they don't have it listed on the MGR website?

Ahh..and they are toasters and not mini-hums, good reminder.

Based on what I've read in the past about the stock toasters, it would probably sound noticeably better with a set of those GFS NYII/IIIs in it:

Based on my ability to completely hack it up on the first 12-string guitar I've ever owned, you could probably put a real toaster on there and it wouldn't make too much difference
Chords are somewhat recognizable but beyond that I need help.
