i was kinda curious about this 12 string guitar... but i dont know why it have 12 strings :DD if im not mistaken, jimmy page was using a double neck guitar and it have 12-strings on the other neck... can anyone tell me why it needed 12strings? im planning to buy a les paul (yes my first electric :DD) would it be better to buy a 12-string guitar? and just put 6 strings instead of 12?
ha wow finally cracked that suspended code... feel kinda of stupid now..... but thanks, first expert village video i actually watched all the way through
can anyone tell me if we can actually turn a 12 stringed acoustic guitar into a 6 string one. I know the design and etc etc depends but still. Does anyone has any experience????? Thank you !!!
I'd like to point out that the A maj and A min suspended 2nd was the same chord.... without the 3rd (C# or C) you can't identify whether it is major or minor, therefore it's just an A sus 2nd.... I hate instructors who don't know basic fucking theory T_T let's get some EDUCATED PEOPLE DOING THESE FUCKING VIDEOS FOR "EXPERT" VILLAGE T_T....
ok first off, 12 string is same as 6 string. just 1 more set of octave strings added to it. second, chords on a 6 string are the same as a 12 string with octaves added in to give it an extended sound and more full rich sound. third, no beginner guitarists are gonna buy a 12 string anyway unless they are stupid or spoiled rotten rich.
@metalhead142 That's not true. I got a cheap second hand 12 string as my first guitar, it was bought for me by my grandfather who was not a guitar player, or rich, and almost totally blind. I liked it but it was as much use to me as a pair of socks on a guy with no feet.
@Dave54600 well i mean its kinda like the same question when people ask when am i ready for the gibson les paul or sg or explorer or dean martin acoustics and what not. my best advice is play around a ton on a normal six string, get more than comfortable with it, use a capo and fool around with it and then once u feel like ur good 2 go (and when u dont mind changing and tuning 12 damn strings) then pick up tht 12 string again and itll sound really good and be fun to play. cheers
@metalhead142 I wouldn't say you need to fool around with a capo before you use a 12 string... I've personally never been into capos but I play on a scalloped fretboard (I play electric) so bar chords seem to be able to ring easier (I find that scalloping takes a lot of tension out of the fingers, resulting in easier barring, etc. (after some practise), which would therefore result in a good ring and sustain using bar chords...
12 strings are, for me, plain fun... plus they sound awesome!!!
@brossej07 yeah but i was saying that to someone who was just starting out. i was suggesting they do that so itll give them more possibilities and more range and fun of playing like i did. i picked up a 12 string just this year and i already knew how to use a capo and it worked wonders for me and i came up with good material because of it
@Lucer1t0 - LEARN TO READ... as i have already said, "IT USED TO SAY....". Not my fault the guy who posted it did so incorrectly and it stayed that way for quite a while before HE changed it.
@rightwingted - When I made that comment almost a year ago, it was, and it stayed that way for a while before EV changed the title. I've responded to this a number of times.
IIRobertoII why should i look at other videos with the same title, when i'm looking looking at this one, of which the title is INCORRECT!... It might be a series, or on another video, but, because there is NO TUNING IN THIS VIDEO.. my comment shouldn't be read as ignorant crap. So before you post more ignorant crap, mr. roberto, i'd recommend to you, that you know your facts..
@IIRobertoII he also isn't referring to any other videos in the "series" in the description ., and i've noticed that i'm not the only one who is bright enough to see that there is actually no tuning in this video,, so i don't really understand why are you commenting on me?? you should really feel stupid right about now
@StrawhatxLuffy everytime you hold a fret down on a 12 string you are holding 2 strings down at once because a 12 string is a string with another string right underneath it... making it harmonize.
this guy seems a lil hopped up. second guitar sounds like shit.... yes i had an instant diablo flash back. and i still dont know if im tuning my fuckin guitar right
It's not that you can't figure it out. But nobody can PLAY when they want to, without previously learning, all the chords, there are more chords than you can count.
So I suppose you can KNOW all the chords, but can you PLAY them all?
You think about it, the possibilities may be infinite, it's enticing really, I'm thinking of picking up a 7 string and making that my official instrument to venture from. I honestly don't want to know every cord if I could, there's no fun in this life if you know everything. But then again, think of the resonance you'd be able to make from these beauties. It's like a good shroom trip that you never come down from.
@TravisMaxima there are like thousands of chords and each one of them has a bit off an add-on or something Cadd9 or something it will drive you mad if you really knew all chords
WHAT kind of guitar are you playing i got the same guitar for free but i dont know what brand it is and i really want to know!! plz any1 help me out it you can. thnx
VicksVids.Its the other way around with the octaves.The thinner strings from the G to the Lower E are tuned up,not down.!!The high E and B are tuned the same..Hope you had a good party with the drinks man!!
there are 12 tuners, beside every normal string theres a thiner string tuned one octave lower, they are thin thats y u cant see them. sry for misspells i made - i'm kinda drunk :p
Thank you for the Info! Now I realize every thing. Tell me something more please. Is it a double stringed Guitar, because I know that more then 10 strings it's a double strings!?
tunning down opens up a wider vocal range, but nowadays the stress level on the twelves isnt such a factor as say back in the day when you'd tune down because of losing bridges and bending necks.......all of my twelves are tuned standard A-440...I agree , this teacher isnt a 12 string player, and most arent anymore....it's a particular instrument and this lesson lacked anything of value, but he's a decent six string teacher
I learned absolutely nothing at all. Makes me feel better, considering they are experts and all. Guess I am an "expert" too. Maybe I will make a video about guitar. "When you hold your guitar, what you want to do is strum the strings, this will in return, make a note. Then listen to the note and try to make more sounds.

@DAGSTERZ26 Well here's some more advice : hold your dick in a tight grip with ALL your fuckin' fingers in the palm of your right hand, unless you're left handed, and shove it straight up your fuckin' ass !
@DAGSTERZ26 It's not MY fault if i'm a Homo after your Dad corrupted my sexuality ,made my asshole the size of a frying pan and gave me A.I.D.S. ; i'm sorry if you didnt know he led a double life.He also made secret guitar tutorial vids showing 12 string guitar techniques whilst fuckin' your Mum in the ass
Because of the high amount of stresses found in most 12 string guitars, a lot of musicians tune them down either 2 or 4 semitones to D or C, but with the same intervals as your standard guitar tuning. It makes so much sense, but can make things confusing if you are trying to jam with other guitarists.
why does he say " something cool on 12-string?" u can do that on a 6-string. This isn't exclusive to 12-string or anything. I'd rather appreciate a comparison of sound between 6 and 12 strings.
do you think it would be a waste of time for me getting a twelve string?? i'm only 13 (14 very soon) and i've been playing for just over two years(not to boast but i'm pretty good). i've never played a 12 string but i love the sound.....and do they play just like a 6 string?? any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
thanks man!! i'm pretty good at finger picking, the first song i ever learned 100% the way through was Study In A Minor and it's a finger picked classical piece, i can do a few other finger pick songs aswell, thanks for the adivce!!
A 12 string is a little tougher on your fingers. Also the scale, at least on my Guild 12 string is much longer than my Les Pauls or PRS 6 string elec. guitars. You need to stretch your fuingers a little more but once you get a bit used to it 12 string guitars sound so nice. I would say go for it. If within n a couple years you got good on a regular 6 string you ought to be able to play a 12 string. Try a few models before you comit to one. Good luck !
thanks man!!! i'm away tonight to try one at one of the two music shops in my city. i've been playing a lot of acoustic sort of stuff lately so i'm just gonna give that a go on the 12 string! yet again thanks!!
hey dude, it plays like a 6 and sounds great, but it takes twice as much to change strings and three times longer to tune it. mabey you find a video on here where they show you how to tune and not a bunch of bullshit suspension cords like this dude is trying to do, this guy sucks... if you want a 12 string get a fender, they sound great....
thanks a lot for the info but, i tryed one out just a few days ago, it was a Yamaha APX700-12 and it was awsome!!! i like it just as much as my Gibson SG if not more. but the sound is absolutely amazing! so i'm definatley going for one! thanks again buddy! :)
i'm 12, started playing just before christmas and never had a lesson but am stillpretty good. i never played a 12 string but really want one so........ they're just 6 string with the strings doubled. meaning its tuned EEAADDGGBBee
I got one when I was your age for 100 buks. I played it a lot, then got serious on the classical guitar. Chances are you'll prolly get bored of it and just play a six string later. unless you get really good at it!
this guy is talking bullshit,instead of showing how to tune 12 string guitar he is bullshiting ,idiot should shut the fuck up and show how to tune, am I right ? or wrong,his lecture is very boring . Ilove playing guitar and also listen to the others playing,certainly not this kind of crap.sorry someone has to speak out
Holy Crap.. What does this Rubbish have to do with "TUNING" a 12 string... If i wanted sus chords and tonic scales and stuff thats what i would of searched... Title these videos right you muppets.

Because of the high amount of stresses found in most 12 string guitars, a lot of musicians tune them down either 2 or 4 semitones to D or C, but with the same intervals as your standard guitar tuning. It makes so much sense, but can make things confusing if you are trying to jam with other guitarists.

why does he say " something cool on 12-string?" u can do that on a 6-string. This isn't exclusive to 12-string or anything. I'd rather appreciate a comparison of sound between 6 and 12 strings.

There is a rather large diffrence in sound.. with the 12 string EADG all ahve a lower octave string and a higher resulting a a very thick sound.

do you think it would be a waste of time for me getting a twelve string?? i'm only 13 (14 very soon) and i've been playing for just over two years(not to boast but i'm pretty good). i've never played a 12 string but i love the sound.....and do they play just like a 6 string?? any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Start fingerpicking songs, like blackbird for example, and get good at those, once you've done that have a go with a 12 string.

thanks man!! i'm pretty good at finger picking, the first song i ever learned 100% the way through was Study In A Minor and it's a finger picked classical piece, i can do a few other finger pick songs aswell, thanks for the adivce!!

A 12 string is a little tougher on your fingers. Also the scale, at least on my Guild 12 string is much longer than my Les Pauls or PRS 6 string elec. guitars. You need to stretch your fuingers a little more but once you get a bit used to it 12 string guitars sound so nice. I would say go for it. If within n a couple years you got good on a regular 6 string you ought to be able to play a 12 string. Try a few models before you comit to one. Good luck !

thanks man!!! i'm away tonight to try one at one of the two music shops in my city. i've been playing a lot of acoustic sort of stuff lately so i'm just gonna give that a go on the 12 string! yet again thanks!!

hey dude, it plays like a 6 and sounds great, but it takes twice as much to change strings and three times longer to tune it. mabey you find a video on here where they show you how to tune and not a bunch of bullshit suspension cords like this dude is trying to do, this guy sucks... if you want a 12 string get a fender, they sound great....

i'm 12, started playing just before christmas and never had a lesson but am stillpretty good. i never played a 12 string but really want one so........ they're just 6 string with the strings doubled. meaning its tuned EEAADDGGBBee
Dano94910 2 years ago
well, it's more like EeAaDdGgBbehigher-e because, normally, they are tuned not the same, but the "doubled up" strings are one octave above.

I got one when I was your age for 100 buks. I played it a lot, then got serious on the classical guitar. Chances are you'll prolly get bored of it and just play a six string later. unless you get really good at it!
