I've known at least one player who did this in Montreal.


Well, THAT'S a negative right there :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Canada : they were in a perfect position to get American technology, British culture and French food.
Unfortunately they got American culture, British food, and French technology

I have a 50 year background in guitar, 40 years on pedal steel and its most common tuning (E9 chromatic) has all sorts of re-entrant string placement and abstruse logic


uh oh, I always lied the sound of C6 or sacred :shock: :D

about the only think I ever learned was that cool technqiue where you can lide the harmonics starting behind the nut....
while I can't play anything on em...I can sit for hours and just make annoying sounds on one.
great instrument...etherial

big alcorn fan myself

so i have no idea i'm just throwing it out to the heads with the knowledge of string gauges...would the SG-12 be easier to set up 5ths/5ths? Not my bag not into counterpoint and am a low-ender. As for crossed-hands and not playing the melody side lower than the seventh fret, in DBR my right hand is down by the flaps alot that's where it sounds like a bass and thats why I have two hands. Like I said earlier "in theory" is one thing but put a 36" scale Grand Stick with 12 strings in your hands and see what strings and trying to play it will do. It's kind of a lab rat to me. My rat is DBR with melody down a half-step...kinda like Classic tuning w/ melody down an octave...Really.
