I asked Santa for a Rickenbacker 360/12 12-string this year. Just like last year. guillaumeb Dec 2019 #2

Yep, 12 string acoustics were never a problem for me to play, but that Ric licked me... Dennis Donovan Dec 2019 #5

And again, Santa refused.

I will try even harder next year.

I had one about 20 yrs ago (360-12, *Turquoise*). I used it on a few home recordings and sold it when I realized my fingertips were too "fat" to play one correctly. The neck is the same width as the regular 360 so both precision and thinner fingertips are needed (and I lacked both).

It was very easy to play, but it sounded too muddy when recording.
