a song that has haunted me for 30+ years and now I find it covered on an acoustic 12-string ... and it's a pleasant surprise, it just proves what someone said once , that Tom Miller was like Nick Drake underneath. I guess your version just atests the fact that the song is an eternal classic. Some guy says he'd be happy to see this...well, of course, go show him. You did a swell job fingerwise. Greetings from Portugal!
wow it's very good and I love that song and i think it sounds better in an acustic guitar!! im tryinh to learn it in an electric guitar but want to buy an acustic congrats my friend
Television, with all its angular dissonance, does not lend itself well to acoustic guitar; and yet you not only manage to do it well, but you made your version sound darker than the original. Love the way you zero in on the hypnotic done vibe.
It actually doesn't feel that different, you play a 12 the same as a 6. The only thing is that you have to choose the right sized neck for your hands. If you get one that is too narrow, it's almost impossible to pick from string to string cleanly (think Rickenbacker).
Amazingly beautiful,I was trying to do some acoustic covers of Television too and this impressed me a lot! Thx!

This is a really remarkable interpretation.

That's awesome! How hard is a 12-string guitar to play compared to a regular?
