[Picking Moose]

I own 2 hand-made custom 12strings and I fingerpick on both.
Since most of the time the thumb plays a downstroke and the other fingers go up-stroke I have both guitar strung with the 2 G strings inverted so that the index catches the higher octave string before the lower one. Having it the standard way would mean that the high octave G string would always be covered by the bigger sister making it sound faint or weak.
Having those G strings inverted changed dramatically (for the better) the sound I make when I fingerpick.
