12 String

Unread post by AmazingRando7 » Sat Jan 25, 2003 1:57 pm

Hey. I'm new to these forums, but I've been coming to the site for a while. Anyway, I just bought a new Fender 12 String acoustic guitar and all the songs I know sound great. I was just wondering if anyone knew of some songs by any artist that would sound good. Let me know!
Thanks

Yeah the sound is beautiful.... it's really full and open sounding, if you know what I mean. I've been playing a lot of Dave's stuff, some older REM and also some music by the Tea Party. I think it's really a great guitar. Thanks for the suggestions, will try those difranco and reynolds

ME!! I'm gonna get a Tak 12 string. The 535. I have a 530 right now and I love it. So I'll get the 535, the only difference I see is the number of pegs and the size of the headstock.
