How to Best Play The 12-String As A Rhythm Guitar (Harness Its Full Power) 

I have FINALLY found what I've been looking for! THANK YOU for showing me such a simple but effective way to REALLY advance my 12 string playing!!!

i've seen a few other videos trying to present the ways to exploit the unique sounds of the 12 string. yours was far and away the best and most detailed. all your videos are top notch.

That’s a great 12-string lesson - mind bending and string bending! Thank you.

Really appreciate these 12 string lessons. They are the best I’ve found. Thank you😁

This was really useful for me, as I busk for a living, and I've been messing around with chord/lead alternations, 5 strings capo-ed, dropped D tuning, detuned treble strings, and 'drone chords' (like the semi-barred chords you're using at the end of your video) for a few years now. I think getting a 12 string will really open up these possibilities for me. Am seriously considering getting my hands on that exact model of guitar you're using also. If it takes alternate tunings well then it seems well worth it. I also heard tuning the guitar's extra strings to fifths is an interesting sound. Thanks!

Love these 12 string tutorials.

Your lessons are always great, but this one is particularly useful to me. Thank you very much!

Thank you for sharing and going over all the different options

This is my favorite in a long time. MORE!

I neededbthat lesson! Thank you!

""THIS IS A GOOD-INTRODUCTION OF HOW AN ACOUSTIC-12-STRING GUITAR MUST-BE PLAYED IN THECORRECT-MANNER, ""TO PLAY-IT AS THESOUND IS LARGERTHAN-LIFE IT SELF, ""12-STRING GUITARS HAVE A HUGHSOUND""!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I find that the reverse rake near the bridge only sounds good when I intensely grimace and scrunch up my face while doing it. If I just keep a normal face it sounds terrible.

Its totaly cool tutorial ... thanks a lot .Really helpfull

Oh yeah.... Big applause for this guy. That baby was starting to PURRR.......

I love to hear that G too especially when its in tune!

Good post. My rules; no bar chords except if you're playing Space Oddity! I've only had a 12 string for 6 months, which I love, and using it on recordings where I've pretty much emphasised the lower strings (4/5/6) instinctively as they just sounded better. That's exactly what you're saying! My only caveat, the higher strings should really refer to pitch not distance from the ground. Just my take. BTW, love your cat!

Nice - I hear some of where Alex Lifeson got his sound

MAN THAT 'RAKING THE STRINGS' NEAR THE BRIDGE IS COOL, I'VE NEVER TRIED IT BUT I'M GONNA NOW. VERY COOL INDEED, WHO WOOD A THUNK IT? FROM THE REZ BKEJWANONG IN SOUTHWESTERN CANADA

Is that a FKV12 - Naked Venus 12String Cut/Electro?

Hey super cool video. You're great man! I love it. What model guitar is that? I see it says Faith on the Headstock.

Thank you.
