Playing along with a bass track recorded just before, which is as close as I can get to a live performance without using four hands at once.

  • How do you do so that the 4th string doesn't sound weird? when y play any note on that string on my 12strin guitar it sounds differente how do you do?

  • I'm not sure what you mean... Could you upload a video showing what you mean and I'll take a look.

  • mmm I don't think i can but i'll try to explain. The 4th string is made up of two strings (G) one an octave higher than the other. When i play something it sounds weird because two notes are playing (one with high tone another with low tone) but yours sounds perfect (excellent job by the way!) do you know why?

  • Either your guitar is out of tune, or you're just hearing the normal sound of a 12 string. That's why it has the paired strings, to get that sound. My guitar is doing that too. Sometimes I'm playing strings on the "up stroke" which may change the sound, because on a Ric the thin string will get hit first on the upstroke (for most other kinds of 12 string, the thin/thick strings are fitted the other way round).
