    Nothing like a Martin acoustic and sound ! Thank God for Normans Rare Guitars saving history one instrument at a time.

    I bought my ‘65 D12-35 in ‘69 and played it a lot until about ‘88. In 1980 I took it to the factory to have the neck checked and the low
    G tuning machine replaced. While there I bought a prototype Vega that remains my favorite 6 string. It has no markings on the headstock but
    is serialized. The 12 rings, sustains, and is loud, plus it will get your fingers in shape fast! They are beautiful to look at as well as play.

    What about the bracing? It's thinner than the 18/28 and that's the main thing that gives it more bass.

      It always has seemed to me that 12 strings sound a little sharp. Think its just part of their nature

    • @boss123400
      @boss123400 6 років тому +3

      KnottyKnotty Did it sound in tune to you? The chimed note was also an A#. It could be that the guitar is overall sharp (harmonic notes) and needs its intonation reset or some other neck work.

    • @knottyknotty6894

  • @michaelparks3106
    @michaelparks3106 3 роки тому +1

    I'm surprised he didn't play "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd, it sounds awesome on a 12 string. I picked up a 1977 D12-35 a year ago to match my '77 D-35 six string. You just can't beat the sound of 45 year old aged wood.
    BTW, the D-35 has more bass than the D-18/D-28 because the top braces are thinner (1/4" vs 5/16"), I don't know if that carried over to the 12 string,. The current D12-35 has 5/16" bracing, and I'm guessing the older models did also due to the increased string tension.
