Notes:
Circa 1920s Stella Grand Concert model (AKA the "BBQ Bob Model") made by Oscar Schmidt. Oscar Schmidt Grand Concert sized 12 string guitars are exceedingly rare. These guitars are a holy grail for 12 string tone fans! This guitar has been rebuilt by Dan Lambert including repairs/enhancements to the original ladder bracing, retaining original wood whenever possible, new ebony fretboard with slight radius, new ebony pyramid bridge, new jumbo frets, crack repairs, and new bone nut/saddle. Also, two carbon rods have been inserted into the neck to enhance the structural integrity for another 100 years of playing.
