Joe Carpenter commented on John Wilson's group 12-String Guitar"Unless the string pairs spacing is astronomically huge, you shouldn't have any problem hitting both of them. Maybe you're think too much about it? My suggestion is to just play & let 'er rip. ;-)
Finger picks are certainly not a…"
Joe Carpenter replied to Todd Allyn Fleming's discussion natural nails are best in the group Fingerstyle players"Hi Todd;
While I'm completely in the same boat as you regarding using natural nails, I think whatever works best for someone is the real key. It's similar to the "thumbpick-no thumbpick" issue. ;-)

Joe"
Joe Carpenter commented on Dan Gabel, Editor & Group Publisher's group Fingerstyle players"Nancy, absolutely you can fingerpick a 12 string. Take a look at Leo Kottke, Peter Lang, Leadbelly...and many others. Here is an example from Kottke (Killer tune to boot..."Air Proofing II): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKSSN_KfJ60"

Bob Mahfood said… - No, I've still got the Goodalls. This new Taylor is really intended to be a "travel" guitar, so I don't have to drag those high-priced Goodys around with me, plus the Taylor is smaller, so its a little lighter and easier to carry around. But it sure has a big voice for a mid-sized guitar.

- Got a new Taylor yesterday, a rosewood and cedar GA7. Best description - a mid-sized guitar with a lot of sparkle and understated power.
I needed to stimulate the economy.
