Best value:
Excellent
General appearance: good grip. Quality of wood and finishes.
UTILIZATION
Channel: it is large and heavy but the strings are very close to the handle making the game easy. Better to wait a few days after the Spanish tuning, not to hear the strings sizzle (woodworking) as was the case on the first day.
SOUNDS
Sound: It is improving day by day, it thickens and heats up a little more.
Attention, the set of strings with a preinstalled conventional octave that one does not sound the same as 6 strings amplified. The sound is less serious and less cumbersome than what I watch, but at the same time new tones appeared in my ears; tones that I was not on my 6 string. As is often said, the game on 12-string is quite different from that of 6.
For me, pieces of rock or blues-pop makes them less well, while songs with open chords become majestic (interesting for the picking)
OVERALL OPINION
I read and reread all opinions about this guitar before I buy on the internet.
In short, I was afraid to buy a piece of wood with a dozen strings stretched ready to crack your fingers of the hand.
I also read everything related to the tuning of this type of instrument.
After a month of use, I recommend this guitar for those who like me want to start the 12-string without breaking the bank. (PS: tuner required) by insisting on the fact that it is an instrument well away from the 6-string! Beware of disillusionment.
