This guy makes every 12 string sound great.
Hey Wayne. Send me his contact info and I'll have him play in my videos. ;). I really appreciate the kind words. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Mark
I agree! Mark’s playing is fantastic! My favorite 12 string guitar videos.
Nice review. Clear and concise. Thanks!
Honest and fair review. Thanks for posting.
Loved the demo
Thanks for your honest review.
Great review, helped answer some questions I had
thank you for your videos! I'm about to buy a 12-string and I've learned so much already. Can't wait to learn more!
We all know how freely Mark gives of his time & talent to help us out with reviews, lessons, and keeping us entertained with his videos. His new product, the Rok Lok strap lock is fantastic! Let me say here that I am not a personal friend of Marks, nor do I work for any business he is associated with. The Rok Lok installs easily on your strap, and makes it really easy to attach/un attach to your guitars. I tried it on my Zager & Ovation acoustics, and an old electric guitar with Dunlap Straplocks on it. The Rok Lok fit easily on all of them. I think we all owe it to Mark to pick up a set or 2 for all your straps. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of the Rok Lok t-shirts! Thank you Mark!
I totally agree with your statement on Mark's RokLok . I have 4 of them so I can use various colored straps to match whatever Guitar am I am playing . In one minute you have a secured strap that fits almost every strap button on every Guitar. I saw a guy crack a neck on a Les Paul when his strap came lose. RokLok makes sure that never would happen.
i can't wait to get a set of those rok loks too. i have a bass that needs them.
Awesome to hear What Difference Does It Make!
Excellent demo, brother. Gave us what we need to see/hear
Thank you for this, Mark. Great review. I've been intrigued by this guitar since it came out this year. I like its unique sound which you brought out very well. I'll have to look for a store that carries one to test it out for myself. Thanks again.
Another great video! I have been on the fence about this guitar, I always wanted an electric 12 string and an acoustic 12 string. Keep the videos coming! Thank you!
Mark, I picked up the 12-string earlier this year to learn Gord songs and you blow me away every time I watch one of your videos. Thanks for helping me with my own work!
Great review. To the point and without much chatter.
Hey Mark,
Great review! I really appreciate your honest assessment of this guitar. Especially the Rick-O-Meter and your take on the “better served elsewhere” analysis.
As always, an excellent video and review. Thanks. 👍
Nice choices to demonstrate
Great demonstration. I always appreciate funk style strumming on each pickup position.
Simple and too the point. I've been waiting for you to review this. I wanted to know your opinion of it. Thank you.
thanks for a great demo of a unique guitar - never played an electric 12 string and now I'm really intrigued
Another great video Mark, thank you. Like the Demo and honest opinion of the guitar. Apart from the bridge intonation challenge; the overall sound, looks and price are very tempting.
Will need to give this some serious thought.
John 76 year young Rocker now in a rocker.
Wow great video thanks!
Nice color. Unique sound, almost too thin though. As usual, another fair and balanced review and honest summary. Thanks, Mark.
A little bit thin but that may be on me with the 58.
If you're recording a song , something in isolation may sound crap , but this could easily cut through a mix and sound perfect. I don't know for sure , but I'm thinking if you've got bass ,drums etc and you need an appegio to shine this may be a good option
He almost never plays the low A and especially the E string. Most if the riffs are played in the top 4 strings.
I think it`s because of the 1meg pots it has.
Great video - nice presentation of what seems to be a pretty cool guitar (for the money!). Great work as always Mark, thanks as always for detailed reviewing and some great playing. 😎
Thanks Mark!
Great review. Got what needed to be said without getting too deep in the weeds. Starting to lean back to the reverend as I’m more on the side of looking for the ric tone at a more affordable price.
Great selection of riffs to demonstrate- great video
Hey Mike. I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know that you enjoyed the video. I hope you have a great week. Take care and be well. Mark
Fantastic review…thanks for your videos, Mark.
Hey Don. Thanks for taking the time to support. I sincerely appreciate it. Mark
Thanks again for another useful and concise review.
And thanks for sharing the nickname of the headstock, I never knew it was referred to as a hockey stick.
great choice of riffs.
Really liked the sound this made
I've been looking for an eclectic 12 that falls out of the usual 12 string sound.
I particularly like the quick overview and assessment of the guitar. No 20 to 30 minutes of endless chatter and 'nit' picking
Great stuff Mark
I just bought one of these used off the wonderful craigslist. This video made me even more pumped to plug it in!
i'm glad you talked about the pickups a bit. i used to think Jazzmasters had p90s, but they're "Jazzmaster Pickups". interesting.
Me too. I was educated only recently. :)
I bought a Reverend at your recommendation. It is awesome. Demo so about twice the price of a Danelectro, and I like it twelve times as much. I think pickup type may make a huge part of that difference. These pickups on a solid body make a different sound again. Very nice.
some lovely tunes fella ...keep up the good work ...
Worth it all the way😮 outstanding!!!
I think it's a wonderful weakness. Or is it a strength? We all love the sound of a 12 string! Another great review, Mark. And great playing, as usual. Thank you. 😊
I'm loving the tone you got out of the guitar, in all three switch positions. The bridge pickup, in particular gave you a really rich tone but still had a big dose of "jangle" to it.
Thanks to your suggestions on some of the other videos, I've started plugging my Guild F2512E Deluxe through my little Spark Mini. Just a touch of chorus and reverb really brings riffs like Motel Kalifornia to life!
I have a 6 strings, but I’m completely in love with the 12 strings sound
You give the beat reviews!!
I think the middle position sounded best. Thank you for the review
Good review. I'm tempted with this Jazzmaster XII. Need to see one & play it. 🙂
This is why It's hard for me to choose an electric 12 string when I watch these reviews. Mark makes EVERY 12 string sing ❤
once again outstanding video the Jazzmaster sounds great and I do like the color
You can't beat the color Robert. I'm partial to Red but I really like the blue on this one. Mark
Wow sounds great. Squier did a great job on these.
I’m sold ✌️😎
Thanks quick review. The guitar looks cool. I'm not sure what I think about the headstock, though. I like the sound. The intonation problem is a concern, though.
I have been looking at one of these but have not had a hands -on yet. If it feels good that would seal the deal. I like the sound demo a lot. Good demo examples. First one was my fav: Supertramp IIRC.
Current electric 12 is a D'Angelico Premier DC 12 string in cherry red. Awesome Seymour-Duncan factory buckers and ideal string spacing. Unfortunately discontinued, so by necessity this one is a keeper. Used ones turn up now and then on various sites. Mine heavily moded with CTS, Orange Drops and a Master Volume with treble bleed circuit on lower horn like a Gretsch layout.
I learned guitar basics on a 60's German made Framus 12 string. Could not afford the Fender Coronado electric 12 string I lusted for then.
Will always be a 12 string player. Have 5 acoustic 12 strings currently as well.
Great review Mark. I also thought the guitar sounded to thin. It is a beautiful guitar though and I believe the thin sound could be addressed with amp tone changes.
Gotta get it
Hey man. Thanks so much for checking out the video. I was just at NAMM and a bunch of us were talking about why the 12 string isn't more popular. Definitely a nice sounding guitar. I think I just got thar 1/1000 with poor intonation. I think you'll be happy with it. Take care. Mark
Great vid
Man! It's almost TOO in tune! That's a nice sign! Good review man!
Hearing the opening Smiths riff sold me
Nice review and nice to hear some Who! I think people forget Townshend used Rickenbacker and Fender Electric XII 12 strings.
Sounds good!
Good one! Thanks! :)
Much appreciated. I hope you have a great day! Mark
Mark, I’m an aspiring guitar player. The twelve string seemed very daunting to me at first. Your videos have really open my mind to the uniqueness of the instrument. I love the sound. I really want to give the twelve string a go now.
Thank you for being so very thorough in your lessons and explanations.
Hey Arland I have been playing 12 strings for about 40 years. Give it a go for sure. My advice is make sure you have a 12 that has good string spacing. For Example my Rickenbacker 360/12 has a very narrow neck and is hard to play cleanly. My Eastwood and Danelectro are very easy to play. Almost as easy as a 6 string. Good luck on your future 12 string playing
I have played a 12 for as long as I have played, >50 years. It adds some challenge as well as a whole new voice and will further harden your fingers. Well worth doing. Go to a big shop and try as many as you can for both body and neck fit to your frame and hand.I learned guitar basics on a 12. Own 5 of them at present time. With time you will be at home with and own both acoustic and electrics. They become another voice you can use.
@@ratwynd Same here, it was called a Ranger Xii by EKO. bought it in 68, it was as easy to play as a 6 string. Lost it 6 years ago in the Ca. wildfires.
It only sounds as good as the speakers you’re hearing it on.
That being said, thank you Mark. I always value your opinion. I’m leaning towards the Harley Benton as my electric 12.
Pretty cool 👍👍
I up and got one from Sweetwater.
Intonation is fantastic right out of the box, even in first position.
Nut hight perfect!
The tuners feel ok, but the buttons were plated with out cleaning mold seams. The slots are course.
The beast says in tune, just fine, but
There is some binding at tye string retainer or nut with the Ds & As strings.
I will put a treb pass to control the beast.
With the 9.5 R and medium low string hight fretting out ( during bends ) is not a problem, un like with my factory set up '66 E XII, with 7.5R.
Thanks you helped me decide to grab one. Amazing!
The question of how that narrow neck is at the nut has been posed here and on other channels and yet nobody seems to want to answer it.
Another good demo Mark, it does sound and look good, apart from the headstock of course, but a little bit of sawing and sanding could easily rectify that. 🙂🎸🎸🎸🎸
Hey Sandra. I'm not a fan of the headstock either. Thanks for always showing up and supporting. Take care. Mark
Great stuff there Mark, the guy I bought my used HB from said he was selling it 'cause he just got the paranormal!
The HB has served me very well. It's great for heavier tones like When the Levee Breaks.
I think that you could take the cheapest guitar and make it sound great. Thanks for the video - I just love your videos. You are such a superb player and it's a pleasure to watch every one. Cheers.
Sounds nice to me. Certainly unique!
Yes Linda. It has a sound all its own. To me, that's a good thing. Some people are looking for the bargain Ric tone. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Mark
Hey Mark!! It truly does have a unique sound … If I had to put it into words I’d say it sounds Nasal .. as someone who’s voice winds up in their nose as opposed to projecting from the chest …That’s probably just the overall personality of the treble tones of Fenders personalities to begin with… Nice enough but I wouldn’t want one….
Amazing playing as usual. You could make a broom stick sound good.
Great and honest review Mark. Personally I don"t like the shape of this Guitar . I like symmetrical shapes on a Guitar. And to me the Headstock is hideous. It does sound pretty good. Thanks Mark once again for getting me a set of RokLoks very quickly. I hope sales are Booming
I am glad that I bought the Hagström DLX12 instead, but I have to give Squier the credits that they produced a very affordable cheapo to the Rick. Sounds very good.
12 string very limited but great. Finally, someone that knows how to play songs. Congrats on tackling some difficult ones. Finger picking 12 strings is not easy and you did an excellent job. I own one of these and like it better than a Rickenbacker I owned. Much easier to play the Squier, very narrow neck on the Ric. Tube amp clean is a must for 12 strings to get the overtones and jangle. imo
Nice looking guitar. I have a Jazzmaster 6 string which looks cool. The 12 string sounded great in your hands as always but maybe it’s too thin in tone like a Danelectro 12 I once had.
You do make them all sound great, Mark! I probably won't be buying this guitar, but it does seem to be worth the price, and down the road, who knows?
I bought one when they first came out. It is definitely worth the price now. “Down the road” after they quit making them they might not be “worth” the prices that people will be asking (and getting) for them then. I highly recommend buying one now if you are the least bit interested in it.
I fucking LOVE the Rick-O-Meter
LOL. Thanks FH. I really appreciate it and I apologize for the grossly late reply. DOH. Take care and have a great weekend. Mark
Not terrible for the price, The Harley Benton sounds better, and even with shipping might be a bit easier. The tone is thin on the Paranormal, Perhaps Steve Howe could make good use of it...😂
That damn international shipping. Not just the cost but the all in factor always gives me pause. I've been lucky so far but I've been very selective about the HBs I've purchased.
Nice review...I'll stay with my acoustic, though!
To bad you didn't know Don Felder who is the main guy for the song Hotel California, and got his permission to play it. Then you could tell Don Henley to Beat it ! Another great review Mark !
Henley called the shots and ran the show. Felder was a very unappreciated hired hand in Henley's eyes. He would have absolutely no say in this from what I understand.
I was skeptical about this one, even though I already have 3 Squier axes. A Strat, a Tele, and a “Hello Kitty”. Each one cost me $100 when Matthews Music closed their doors. The Strat is definitely a keeper and the other 2 I just have. I have 2 regular Fenders and an Alvarez acoustic 12 which has until now, been satisfying. I feel the need now
I don't know how the prices line up compared to the other guitars you have, but really... you've made me a fan of that Reverend 12, although from today's video I may look into the Harley Benton. Still kinda like the old Danelectro 12 and Ovation 12's though. Good job all around, Mark. I'm sure Dan Henley thinks so, too! ;)
I think the Reverend is the one. if i could only ever have one 12 string electric.
after seeing mark's video[s] with the rev airwave, i bought one! and it sounds terrific! it's truly the One Ring haha! and, i've got a HB 612 in my cart at Thomann - just waiting for my payday to order 😉
Hey James. The killer with HB is the international shipping. It's not that it's bad but you kinda gotta go all in. I've had great luck but some people don't like them. I'm not a Dano fan. I'm not a fan of their corporate structure either. LOL. Take care. Mark
Apparently the trick with Thomann is that two guitars ship for the same price as one. Considering that shipping is (particularly recently) a significant percentage of the guitar price, particularly on the lower end models, that you may as well buy two! I just bought the HB612 a couple months ago, and sort of wished I'd bought another acoustic to ship with it. @@8MinuteAxe
I loved it - but I might go for another 12-string electric... but the price atm is awesome at this guitar so there's that.
aha! i knew it! seeing that in your last video, i thought - no, that can't be an original xii, can it? and i was right! but i'm still unsure if page used one of those in stairway to heaven or not - i've read conflicting stories - some say he did, others say he used something else. oh, well! haha at least don didn't hammer on your door this time, mark! and you sound great on that - and i love the hockey stick head - go gretzky! one more thing - amazon canada does not stock your rok-loks, darn it [heavy sigh] ! regardless, love from canada, and as always, now i'mgoing to pick up my reverend airwave and practice some of those classic songs, cheers!
I seem to remember him talking or writing about it somewhere, although I don’t think it was in his book but while the one he used escapes me using one of these sounds wrong to me but I don’t want swear to what is was but I’d assume he actually knew. I believe the same bit got quoted in the little book that’s just about recording the fourth album. That thing is pretty thorough.
Thanks for the video, Mark! The Don Henley/copyright strike bit was hilarious. Do you like XTC? They had a lot of killer 12-string riffs.
Let me know when the Rok Lok t-shirts become available
Will do Robert. Very soon. Enjoy the rest of your day. Mark
Hi Mark, love your videos. I’d like to buy a 12 string electric guitar on a budget. Having played both which would you recommend, the Squier Paranormal 12 string or the Harley Benton 12 string?
Hi Mark, I like the looks of the Squier Parranamal Jazzmaster 12 and your Rick o meter lol, but it sounds light. I think my Harvey Benton RB-612 sounds better at almost half the price. Plus I am not sure how much it weighs but being a solid body it mine be a little hefty. Nice review
I think I’m going to order one of these next week. What amplifier do I want to go with it? Living room/ kitchen/back porch performance with an occasional open mic night thrown in.
I recently bought a Boss Katana and it is great! I'm going to do a video on it over the next few weeks. Enjoy the new guitar, looks great 🎉
If you're looking for a solid classic tone you can't go wrong with a Blues Jr. or a Vox AC4. Blackstar makes some really nice amps too.
@@8MinuteAxe Is it permitted to play a Fender through a Vox amp? Asking for a friend.😁🎸😆
Hey Mark, great review, although I was surprised how thin this beautiful looking guitar sounds. I think, maybe, Fender/Squier should have spec’d it with a ‘beefier’ plckup, maybe the Squier version of the ‘WideRange’ or similar. Interesting point regarding the bridge intonation problems you experienced. I had the same type on my Burns Double Six and, although the ‘secondary’ saddle adjustment can be a bit fiddly I do think that the hardware is much better than the far more compromised ‘standard’ 6 saddle bridges found on many 12s.
Your Henley reference made me chuckle… what is wrong with the guy⁉️ He’s as rich as Croesus and, as Fil on the ‘Wings of Pegasus’ channel has proved, does nothing to stop engineers using the dreaded ‘AutoTune’ to decimate the sublime vocals of Randy Meisner on Eagles classics.
Much as I love early/mid Eagles output - and just love Joe Walsh (I saw them, live, on London’s South Bank in ‘72 just after they released their first album, recorded at Olympic in London, and tickets were a less than a quid - U.K. Pound -❗️, when the band was a democracy. Their set consisted of said album and a 💩-load of Roy Orbison covers) - even live, then, the harmonies were sublime. But the guy turned into a total A-hole (sadly as did his mate Frey)❗️Their treatment of Don Fender was truly appalling.
Anyhow, keep up the good work! 👍
Hey Rob. It's a bit thin but I think it's more to do with the how many levels of compression exist between the natural sound of the guitar and the final video. So much of the information is gone by the time the video is rendered and then uploaded it's hard to get an accurate portrayal of any sound. This is especially true for tube amps. I'm taking a 15 to 25 gb raw file and rendering it to maybe 1 gb. Then during the youtube upload it's scaling it down to 20 mb or so. I appreciate the feedback and the support. I hope you have a great week. Mark
A couple of years ago Fender issued a limited run of what they were calling the Alternate Reality Electric XII, which was an updated version of their classic Electric XII from the 1960s. I bought one, and straight away I hated the Gotoh bridge on it, which is the same bridge this Paranormal Jazzmaster has on it. They claim it has twelve individual saddles for best possible intonation, but that's misleading...there are twelve saddles, yes; but the saddles for the octave strings ride on top of the saddles for the standard strings-which means they're not truly independent of each other, and limits the amount of adjustment you can do with them. I hated the bridge so much I returned the guitar, which is a pity, because otherwise I liked it. If Fender had reissued the original Electric XII bridge on the new model-which has twelve GENUINELY independently adjustable saddles-I'd have kept it.
what a great comment. YES. exactly as far as the bridge goes. There's nothing more frustrating than having to cut your losses on one of the strings. I usually can tolerate it being a little out of pitch, but that's my forgiving nature when I'm TUNING. As far as intonation, as soon as I start hearing the issues, it spirals downhill. And it really knocks the wind out of you. You want to play but you're afraid to go up or down or hit a 5 string chord. Crazy. I've seen a couple of the fenders for sale on Reverb. They also made a line in Japan for a few years I believe. Thanks so much for checking out the video. I really appreciate your time and comment. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day. Take care and stay safe. Mark
Hey, love your channel. What string(s) wouldn't intonate ? Were the G strings both plain steel ? I have the Fender Alternate Reality XII that they made a few years back. It looks like it has the same bridge as your Squier. Mine came with both G strings unwound, which I think is a terrible configuration for a 12 string. The non-octave G was an unwound 17, and that string would not intonate at all, not to mention it frets sharp anyway (at least for me). Once I switched it to an 18W, everything fell into place.
Thanks, Mark - EXCELLENT review (as always!). Most electric 12-strings are usually compared to Rickenbackers. Do you think the Jazzmaster XII could be restrung like a Ric? Would the nut have to be replaced? Could the grooves in the bridge saddle be reversed to accommodate each string? Anyway, what a nice-looking guitar! My only other hesitation is the length of the guitar - it won't fit into a hardshell case!
Hi Mark, I've been sitting on the fence with the Jazzmaster. What can you tell me that will make me fall one way or another?@write_me_MinuteAxe8
I'm in for the giveaway!
I thought I was noticing a distinct lack of Ticket To Ride.. until you played it!
No intonation problems with mine, but that overwound, overcompressed (12k!) bridge pickup had to go. I have a set of PV65s in mine now - real Jazzmaster pickups - and it feels much better, much more open and alive. I may try a slightly darker bridge p/u though. We'll see.
I’ve been looking for that Substitute intro fingering version for while. Everything I find is only the 2nd go around with the conventional D.
First time seeing one of your videos I subscribed. To me it sounded a bit thin. I recently saw videos on a Danelectro vintage 12 string. I was very impressed. To my ears the Danelectro sounded much better.
Sorry to hear about the intonation mines perfectly intonated! Minimal adjustment
Thanks for letting me know. That's why I gave it a fair review. I've probably ordered 20 guitars online (including two other Squiers) and every single one has been perfect except the Jazz12. I really appreciate you checking out the video too. Please take care and be well. Mark
@@8MinuteAxe I wouldnt mark it off as bad good** on you! Maybe a second one would do you better ? Sell this one ?:)or giveaway blessings
Been saving for one of these since they were announced, but can't decide against one of the new, revamped Burns SSJ 12s.
The Burns reissues from last year are really hard to find and about 3 times the price unless you're referring to something that's just been released in the last month or so. If I'm going to spend $1500 I'd just assume spend the $2500 and get a vintage model. Thoughts?
I think you sold me on one of these
Ive never understood why anyone would buy a jazzmaster without the tremolo that makes them so great
I agree on a traditional Jazzmaster, but this is a 12 string. I don’t even know if Fender makes a trem for 12.
On a side note, I bought the exact same guitar, last weekend and the intonation on mine is perfect with the exception of the octave G string, which is a touch flat. I’ll adjust that when I do my first string change. Killer guitar!
reminds me a bit of the schecter 12 string line ..im wondering if they use the same bridge hardware?
I wish they had a maple neck version
Hey Brian. I feel like I haven't talked to you in forever. Thanks for checking out the video. I would agree that a maple fretboard (I think that's what you're getting at) would have been a better call to distinguish the guitar from the Dano or even HB. Thanks so much. Take care and have a great weekend. Mark
Nice looking guitar. Would you be able to recommend a reasonably priced electric 12 string that is reverse strung??
I wonder if string thru and top loaded together is the norm for twelve strings
