12 Strings

Only my cousin Chris will understand the joy of a low-action guitar. A 12 string low-action guitar! For which I traded my insanely high-action, couldn't stay in tune with itself, 6 string guitar.

My fingers hurt from playing it pretty much non-stop since 6pm. I don't know why, but I'm a better guitarist on 12 strings. Maybe it's because you've got 6 more chances to hit the right string. Or possibily it's the fuller sound, but I love it. I actually hugged it. I learned on 12 strings, and now I'm back to my roots. (as if I've grown all that much - I think I know about 20 chords in total!)

I think I'll play some more. ;)
