<p>[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 853908, member: 55"]Nice price, and does look like a solid spruce top, rather than plywood - you could tell by a close look at the edge of the soundhole. 12-strings, especially inexpensive ones, are prone to have the action become high due to lifting of the bridge, which can be an expensive (and "don't try this at home" ) repair. The photo of the action looks a bit high, but perhaps not so high as to be unplayable.</p><p>But if the action is good, it is a bargain.</p><p>(My first guitars were both Harmonys, way back when).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
