Lax Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 Funny thread Sorry I don't have pics with launchers In order of appearance in my life (since 5) : -Crappy classical (have two, the second is the 1/4 for children obviously) -Electro-accoustic Kent (vintage imitation found in garbage) -Lyon Washburn (bought to play in my first rock band) -Jackson Dinkey EX with EMG 81/S/89 (to follow my hard rock needs) -Vline sword shaped (custom which belonged to laurent voulzy, a french singer, full carbon) -BC Rich warlock translucent (very nice and ultra heavy plexiglass, with ultra distortion pickups, i play SOAD stuff with it) -Music man john petrucci (was my dream as a fan of dream theater, and willing to play hard stuff) -Music man john petrucci (with piezzo and green/red/violet cameleon color, to continue playing the stuff i love !) That's all for my babies I think i'll buy a 7 strings red music man JP, but i don't even think about selling all non music man guitars, would break my heart to get a few bucks for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

screamin_weasel Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 i got a new 12 string acoustic a couple of days ago - it is amazing. 6 strings just sounds absolutely *beep* compared to 12, i cant see i will ever be playing my 6 string again. will post some pics soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Holmes Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Only reason that I have never even concidered getting one is because I already hate tuning my guitar with six strings. 12 and I would die (lazy *albartroth* who just wants to play). That and the price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 i thought the same two things dude. but i am converted. the guitar i got (Seagull) was half price at my shop. it cost me 172 pounds, and i have seen it on the internet priced between 350-400 pounds. it was half price becasue it had a couple of marks no bigger than half a finger nail. and it needs new strings. the tuning is easy once you know it. the guitar is tuned as follows (low E group at top) e (octave up) E a (octave up) A d (octave up) D g (octave up) G b b e e as you can see, the top 8 strings are paired in standard/octave up tuning, and the bottom pairs tuned to the same note. easy. pics soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lax Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 That's a way to do, but a 12 strings guitar is not used basically to play 2 notes chords automatically Usually we set the 2 or 3 first strings to up octave, and the others in 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th or whatever This allows to play rythm+melody with effects (nostalgic tones etc...) Your config is what a simple pedal can do Quote Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) yes but what you just said above flies completely over my head. alhtough i have been playing for about 2 years, i am compeltely self taught. hence any technical knowledge of music and how it is constructed i know nothing about. i dotn knwo abotu scales, keys, song construction, 7th's, 8th's, minors all that ###### i dont know. i can play songs, and i can write stuff that sounds good. whether it is 'properly constructed' is another matter, and one which i am nto bothered about. to me, if it sounds good, its fine. anyways, here are some pics of my guitars, inclding my new Seagull 12-string. L-R, T-B :- 1962 Fender Telecaster Custom, 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom, Fender Standard Stratocaster Limited Edition Finish (with red tape on ) Seagull Cedar 12+ Acoustic 12 String, Fender DG Acoustic. the electrics are posted elsewhere in this thread. and i am VERY much a Fender man. had a Les Paul, sold it. tried an SG, for about 1 minute. tried a 335, didn't bother.

Lax Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Well mate Sorry for making you feeling uncofortable I just exposed the classical sad conservatory use of a 12 string, i've never had one furthermore... So excuse me Do it your way, you'll always be right, as soon as you feel the groove Cheers ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 to be honest, i had never played a 12 string until the day i brought this one (yes, that is pretty impulsive, especially as i cant afford this guitar ). i played a Faith 12 string earlier in the day, which was nice, but expensive and the wrong colour. then i played this one, loved it, found out is was half price, and my mate brought it for me. so i know mext to nothing about the implementation of a 12 string, but what i do know is that they sound SOOOOOO much better than a 6 string when chording...
