Angus McSweeney Tuning a 12 string? (56* d) RE: Tuning a 12 string? 27 Dec 03


Another thought - it's pretty common to tune down at least 1 full step just to protect the neck of the instrument - there's a lot of tension with twelve strings - and you don't want a warp in your neck over the years - likewise use a light gauge string set. Happy pickin' - and just use a good 12 string capo (yes, there is such a thing - to step up to were the 6 stringers are!
