Finn ~ My first encounter with a 12 string guitar involved the "Bells of Rhymney". This was years and years ago when a friend and I were on a smelt dipping excursion on evening on Lake Huron. We stopped to visit a fellow who had just purchased a 12 string and the song he was working on was the "Bells of Rhymney" he had an lp of Pete Seeger and had just worked out the first few bars. That evening was the first time I had a 12 string in my hands. I fell in love with the guitar and the song and within a couple of months scraped together enough money to buy a Yamaha 12. I had that guitar for years until Big Mick let me try his Guild about two years ago. I now have a Jumbo Guild (what sound). That song is still my favorite instrumental piece for the 12 string. My problem is that I just do not have enough range in my voice to ever able to sing along with the playing.

Good luck and stick with it ~ I've never been able to use tabs to learn songs on a guitar.
