Jeffrey,
I'll sure have to agree with Borderstone on that one....and your choices for the three representations to Gordon,could'nt have been any better.The only one I think You might want to give some consideration to would be the guitar...This is just a thought, and some input from other's on this site would be helpfull too.As I'm sure,everyone here is aware that I am one of the proud owners of a D18GL(I apologize,I can't help it)I think some serious consideration should be given to Gordon in action with the 12 string.In as much as Gordon is synoumonis with the D-18,I think and especially in regard's to some of His most popular recordings such as "The Wreck" and CRT and many others,You might want to consider the 12 string also.This is just my opinion, But I think Gordon has done as much for the 12 string as He has done for the D18..... That's a hard call to make,but I honestly think if I was in Your sitiuation,I'd Go with the the 12 string...
I,ve got many great photo's I've taken at show's I've been to,6 or 12,whatever You may decide,I,ll gladly send You whatever you need or want...
Great project!!! Have Fun!!!
