The William Laskin 12-string seen here is a wonderful guitar, with an interesting history and a well established provenance demonstrating its participation in folk music performance. Commissioned in 1982 from William Laskin by Garnet Rogers, it was also used by Stan Rogers for several months until his untimely death in June 1983. Since then it has been used in multiple tours, performance and recordings.
