Would enjoy some more 12 string lessons. Only really have Hotel California at this point. Also why not some Paul Simon from Simon and Garfunkel days?

Great idea!

Please put those requests in the song forum where the GT admin team will see them. Thanks!

Oh, Pretty Woman, a GT song lesson taught by Henrik Linde, sounds darn good on my 12-string... even with me playing. :D

Roy Orbison wrote that signature song on his Epiphone 12-string; the basis for Epiphone's 2009 limited edition signature "Oh, Pretty Woman" 12-string acoustic. Oh, Pretty Woman is originally a 12-string song.

Another GT lesson song, A Hard Day's Night, has a 12-string running through it. The Byrds allegedly got their inspiration to use a 12-string Rickenbacker from The Beatles.
"It takes a lot of devotion and work, or maybe I should say play, because if you love it, that's what it amounts to. I haven't found any shortcuts, and I've been looking for a long time."
-- Chet Atkins

I agree! Are there 12 string lessons already? If so, where at?
Thanks!
