Here are some famous '12-string' acoustic songs and riffs. I bought this 'budget' 12-string acoustic by Ferndale a few months ago and have finally got round to doing a video with it. The video didn't end up being as great as I thought it could be (also I broke a string just before doing this video and couldn't change it due to a peg that jammed in the bridge!!)

It’s a beautiful song. Don’t think I quite nailed it but had to start the video with it.

Using a capo on the 5th fret of a 12 string!👀 I thought that tales of such lutherie were merely myth or legend, 😂. Great selection 👌. Like deployed 👍 😎🎸✅️

I actually never knew that Bowie riff was a 12-string one. Nice video!

Yeah all Bowies playing is on a 12 string while Ronson plays a Les Paul

@FreezerKing Ай бұрын

My favourite Bowie song, Queen Butch! But yeah, Bowie used a 12-string a lot throughout his career, especially in the late-60s early 70s. He plays it on Young Americans, for one, you can see it during live versions. He really hammers the hell out of it.

Always enjoy the videos. Also wanted to tell you thank you, your top 20 Beatles riffs video alone was something that helped inspire me to start playing, and that’s not even counting your other videos that have inspired me

Oh thank you! Glad it inspired you. I even wanted to do another Beatles one. Hope you keep playing.

@@bloxsy_ I usually have mine tuned down a step, gives it more of a Lead Belly sorta sound.

@bloxsy_ Ай бұрын

I do that too, some of these are in Eb standard. Makes it easier

@FreezerKing Ай бұрын

@@bloxsy_ Before truss rods were a common thing, it was common for everybody to down tune 12 strings so the neck wouldn't warp from all the tension. Not really needed now but still a cool sound. Looking forward to a follow up video!
