Garrison GD-20-12 CE 12 string Guitar - Spares or Repairs - 2007 Made in Canada

Here we have a Canadian made Garrison 12 string guitar which was made in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada in 2007.

It needs a repair to the top of the guitar beside the neck(has an open crack) and a neck reset as the action is high.

The neck has previously been removed ,it is a bolt on neck ala Taylor,and was going to be repaired by a luthier.I found another 12 string and this has been unplayed for the last few years.

The list price of this guitar when new was 899 dollars!

Please see photos of damage - sold as seen.

Garrison was bought in 2007 by Gibson.

Chris Griffiths started his first company in 1993 at the age of nineteen, which was called Griffiths Guitar Works. They sold high end instruments only and did repair work. Towards the end of the 1990s the idea of Garrison guitars was in full swing and the Garrison guitar was released at the 2000 NAMM show.

What separates this guitar from others is the Griffiths Active Bracing System - This system intergrates the binding, bridge plate, neck and bracing all into one glass fiber component.See photo.

The guitar has a solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides, providing a rich, resonant sound. The neck is crafted from mahogany,

This is a great project for someone who wants to repair the guitar and have a great sounding 12 string with a fishman pickup.

Was used professionally in a well known Pink Floyd Tribute act - everything works.

Looking for cash.
