    Twice the strings, twice the solos. First one went well, but the backtrack peetered out at the end, so I did another take right away. I thought I’d play my 12-string for a change as a solo instrument. It is not plugged in. It’s just loud. This is a bit aggressive, some may find it a little too heavy…

    That’s good stuff @charlie_d 👏👏👏 Like the ax🤩 I think it and the melody paired well with the backing track👍👍

      Thank you @Bill_Brown . I should really play it more often. It is an all mahogany Taylor 12-string.

    Nice change hearing a 12-string. It’s a beauty. Good job!

    I had a 12-string for about a cup-of-coffee back in the 80’s but I kept breaking strings and got annoyed with constantly changing them out.

      Thanks, @JoeW! I like the 12-string sound, but tuning and changing strings are always a chore. I usually play it to do rhythm and sing once in a while. Should do this more often to keep it from being neglected 😉
