Lauren Bateman plays a 12-string acoustic guitar and explains why she loves its rich, full sound. The catch: tuning is a nightmare because each string appears twice, and picking requires more finesse since every note involves paired strings.
Do you play a 12 string acoustic? I have played some. Pam? Yeah, I have one on the wall that I'm looking at. I don't play it very often. 12 strings are beautiful. They sound great because you got the octaves on these bottom strings. They're a pain in the butt to tune, I will tell you that. I don't think they're that much harder to play in terms of strumming and chords. Where it becomes a little bit more difficult and you need some finessing is when you want to pick the strings because you got to pick two. It's the. Every string is in duplicate. Beautiful sound. They sound great. It's if. Think again. If I go back to Siri to heaven.
That part I believe is played with a 12 string acoustic guitar. So it's, it's very, very full. Great sound. They're great guitars. They sound beautiful. But those are the cons. They're a pain in the butt to tune when they go out of tune because you have 12 strings instead of six.
