  • Sounds a little tinny or is that just the recording. Im considering buying one would you recommed this model? How are the lows?

  • @shckltnebay

    it's a cheap guitar with a cheap sound, just what the blues needs :-)

  • @daddystovepipe I'm looking for a cheap 12-string. What whould you recommend?

  • @Hlotar

    it depends what you define as cheap

    my 1969 Gibson LG12 costed $700

    you can play blues on any cheap guitar; just check that the action is playable for you

  • Nice rendition. Do you play live shows, or just on-camera YouTube shows? The 12 string sounds great.

  • @thingamabob2k2

    thanks bob, I'm a typical livingroom picker who rarely comes out to play live

  • Hey, love it - can we get a tab?

    would be much appreciated

    

  • Ohman, Boss. I was told to check out an acoustic of the Catfish to take into consideration. Love how you did it, and it gave me a different perspective. =D And just so you know, the ending was probably what made it so great. Watch through the whole thing and loved it. I'm definitely using your rendition as best I can.

  • @daddystovepipe Cheap guitars make blues sound rich and priceless.
