hi JT, AY 12 string on which I play my own solo fingerpicked pieces.
No particular setup, just the same as my 6 strings except I’ve reversed the octave / normal pairs on the EAD and use two wound ‘G’s’ .22 gauge as I usually play in extended Cittern tunings for Gaelic music.
Under 30 minuets to do a string change + clean and oil F/B.
Composition and arranging are much the same as on 6 string only that some of the more picked chordal stuff suites the 2’er better.
It’s the same instrument with different textures.
HTH
