I had a chance to play a bit yesterday on a Taylor 652ce, which is their reverse-strung 12-string. It was very nice.

However, I already have my Guild 12-string, which is a very nice spruce and rosewood model from the early 1980s that is well played in. And what I have discovered, in the years since I acquired my first Taylor (710 cedar and rosewood six-string), is that there are probably more songs that are going to sound good on a six-string than on a twelve-string.

Not all of them though. (I spent some time playing through "Closer to Fine" today, which is an *excellent* song for a twelve-string.)

But there are not that many songs where a twelve-string would be a big plus for me.

And I have enough guitars.

Ask Gretchen. :)
