  • your videos are fucking USELESS

  • WTF? This doesn't do any good to anyone trying to play a 12-string. All this video does is show the most basic blues scale and a couple examples of some (bad) noodling around using it. Yes, he is playing a 12-string, but he gives absolutely no useful information about how to play a 12-string. This would be like if I posted a video called how to play blues while jumping out of a plane and then spent the whole time only talking about how to play blues.

  • expert village........the best place to find the worst tutorials

  • Interested in 12 string guitars...I just started a facebook page dedicated to 12 strings and need input from 12 string players.

    On face book search for " 12 string guitar fans " and join in.

    Thanks

  • @DAGSTERZ26 come on, expert village is dire! i play fiddle a lot, and i'm forever coming across what look to be promising tutorials giving tips, when actually they don't help AT ALL

    it's not just this guy, expert village is shit

  • thats my every day warmup scale... so this helps me with 12 string? nooo

  • @wackedoutsports 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd pairs are tuned in octaves, 1st an 2nd- in unison.

  • ???????this video has to be a joke!

  • Really? Do you work for expert village too?

  • Agreed. I want tips on the different tunings for my 12 string. This guys videos are too short to effectively explain anything anyways.

  • The sound and also the neck, also it takes longer to tune and most likely a while to get used to.

  • The difference is just the sound it makes.
