I was searching for some GFS lipstick pickup demos and I came across this dealy. I think it looks and sounds pretty good.

The headstock kind of looks like a longer version of the late forties Broadcaster prototype:

Looks like the neck is here.

Sounds cool, I'd like to hear it with a Tele pickup in the bridge and not a lipstick though.

The other tele 12 strings I've seen have either used this Gotoh bridge, or just the saddles from the Gotoh attached to a toploading tele bridge plate. So the main strings go through the body and the octave strings are anchored at the back of the bridge plate. I've been thinking about building one out of either a Squier tele or one of those new GFS telemaster things.
