Ah, but that one is primarily a hollow-body electric once completed!Originally Posted by Bass Guy
To the extent of awareness of this user, it cannot, alas, be so constructed as to provide acoustic sounds too. Not without extensive customization that would enable it to play as an amplified acoustic in case the guitarist wants that sound.
And this user, BEING a guitarist, DOES want that sound!
No point exists in building your own guitars in cases where you yourself cannot even play them. But as long as you know, or know of, someone who can play guitars, then that should not be a problem.
Hey there Parker, myself being someone who I consider can't play guitar takes a little bit of offense to your signature. I love building guitars and just making some sound. It doen't matter what your level of expertise is, we are all here doing something we love and that's what matters. So take off your bow tie and drop the higher than thou attitude. Fair enough to have an opinion, which you have done, and I've just given mine. JB

Many apologies; the signature deserved to be revised. And it was just before this response was completed.

You are being overly obtuse in stating what you want, so it would help to stop being over-verbose.
So what you are after is a 12-string electro-acoustic in the shape of an Gibson ES? But Gibson produced many ES guitars in different shapes. ES-5, ES-100, ES-120T, ES-125, ES-125T, ES-130, ES-135, ES-137, ES-140, ES-140T, ES-150, ES-165, ES-175, ES-225T, ES-250, ES-260, ES-295, ES-320TD, ES-325, ES-330TD, ES-335, ES-336, ES-339, ES-340TD, ES-345, ES-347, ES-350, ES-355, ES-359, ES-369, ES-390 and ES-775. OK, some are variations on the same shape but nevertheless, you are going to have to be more specific.
And please be aware that PitBull don't do any standard acoustic guitar kits.
PitBull do custom orders based on existing kits, so you might be able to order an ES-5V kit with a 12 string neck with no pickup rout, and no control or jack holes, so that it will otherwise appear as a hollow bodied Jazz style, (though you may have to source a 12-string trapeze tailpiece yourself). The standard bridge would accommodate a 12-string layout, without having individual intonation adjustment for each string in an octave pair.
