I want to build a 12 string electric, mostly for fun, but will be buying from a parts manufacturer, like Warmoth or USA Custom. Looking at the available body shapes, I started wondering about doing a 12 string Flying V. My biggest concern is about the neck joint - Flying Vs always look like they don't have enough holding the neck on, and 12 strings would increase the tension on the neck. But, I guess that is mostly a visual thing (I guess there is as much holding a bolt neck to a V as there is holding a bolt neck to a strat)

I dunno - I've always kind of liked Vs, but just not sure about the 12 string thing....
