Techniques for Contemporary 12 String Guitar

Taught By: Chris Proctor
Level: 3

This DVD lesson provides new insights into the sonic
possibilities and boundless opportunities for innovation on
the 12 string guitar. Chris Proctor tackles a wide range of
ideas and techniques, taking this richly toned instrument
into new and undiscovered territory.

This course is jam packed with invaluable information,
including important tips on tuning, stringing and setting up
the 12 string for maximum output and intonation. Youll lea
the open G and C tunings pioneered and widely used by Leo
Kottke and other leading 12 string stylists, and the way Chris
tunes down a step to get more resonance and depth from his
instrument.

Most 12 string players strike the octave and unison pairs of
strings simultaneously. Chris shows you a revolutionary way of
picking the twelve strings individually, using alteate thumb
and finger picking within the pairs of strings. Fiddle tunes
such as "Sailors Hopipe" and "Fishers Hopipe" can be
played with flowing melodies and resonant, ringing tones using
a minimum of left hand movement.

Chris covers many other important skills, including use of the
bottleneck slide, fingerpicks, string mute, harmonics (especially
lush on the 12 string guitar), and other techniques that will
help you to play powerful and evocative instrumentals. Youll
lea, in detail, "Halfway," "Bells of the Harbor," "War Games"
and "Over the Pass." The session ends with Chris beautiful
performance of his arrangement of "Merrily Kiss the Quakers
Wife."
