Thread Name: Twelve-String Guitars
Subject: RE: TWELVE-STRING GUITARS
I love my 12, but may have to give it up due to a physical problem. My 12 is a leftie Martin J15-12. The body of it is narrow and seems to sit nicely under my arm. Martins' J series is similar in depth to their 000 & 00s. I find this depth to be much easier on a woman for playing. I had a bit of trouble getting used to the heavy neck bracing as it puts the guitar a tad out of balance. I use a Kyser 12 string capo with it.
That 10 string sounds interesting Q. Do you have any idea how it was tuned?
