    I’m sitting here with the exact same 12 string hung around my neck. It’s been 2 weeks since I bought it and I still can’t put it down. Killer guitar!

    I would very likely grant this guitar to all who cannot afford an expensive Rickenbacker, it gives the Byrds sound for more than half the price. I am for that reason also very pleased with my Hagström Viking DLX12.

    Yes I built a 12 string tremolo jazzmaster using a 12string TOM bridge with 12 individual adjustable saddles. LOVE the sound and it stays intune reasonably well.

    I know that Vox made a 12-string tremolo back in the 60s, but I am unaware of any contemporary manufacturers. The pickups really shine in this format, definitely worth picking up one if you're interested.

    • @TSFAHTPS

      I had a Vox Phantom XII with a Bigsby-style vibrato in the ‘60s; it was a nightmare to restring (although not as bad as a Rickenbacker 360/12!) and even worse to tune. A vibrato is worse than useless on a 12-string. If you want to do dive-bombs with a sort-of 12-string sound, get out your heavy-metal Floyd Rose-equipped guitar and run it through a Digitech Mosaic 12-string-effect pedal, if you can find one.

  • @jungleperry
    @jungleperry 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    my opinion is best sound is clean with compression/sustainer pedal. sounds really awesome that way with a digi delay

  • @Paul_Lenard_Ewing
    @Paul_Lenard_Ewing 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Right now for my 12 string thing I use a DigiTech Mosaic 12 string pedal using a Fender Duo Sonic but with a Rickenbacker PU put at the neck. This is impressive though I would be tempted to put Ric PU's in it. Ric sells them as replacement parts so you can get them. They make them from scratch right down to the covers that are triple plated and real scatterwound hand winding. It is $90.00 USD ea. for single coil and $160.00 USD ea. for a dual coil Toaster PU.

      Together with this guitar and my Hagström VIking DLX12, I can also recommend the Guild Starfire I12 if you want a cheap Rickenbacker alternative. Especially the Hagström and the Guild stay far better in tune.

    Ok so many comments here (1) has Alex just returned from 6 months at sea 🤣 (2) what a fantastic guitar sounds so full when playing clean or distorted (3) first time I have seen an electric 12 string normally only see them acoustic so this is very cool. (4) that must be a killer to try and bend a double string (5) how do they deal with pick ups on the double string seems to work though. Really impressed guys.

      I really liked this guitar…I never thought that I would but I really did! I particularly liked it with the low tuning thanks to the Virtual Jeff …baritone 12 string is something I could definitely see myself using…

      I just received one yesterday from MF. Mine was a “blemished “ model basically meaning it had some pick scrapes on the pickguard. If had obviously been a Demo somewhere, but it also arrived perfectly set up. I just had to tune it up and start playing for 5 hours straight.
      I’m beyond happy with mine. It actually sounds better than my USA made Strat and Tele.
