So...my F512 finally came after 9 months of waiting and this is a thing of sonic beauty. I absolutely love the shimmer, vibrancy, power, and subtlety, that this thing can put out. But yesterday, I finally put it away to take up my older 6 string guitar so I can keep working on my lessons (I was working on them with my 12 string before).
Thing is, it just sounded so flat (not off pitch, just...flat) and it felt almost unnatural in my hand. I found it harder to do barre chords on my old one and it just didn't...feel as joyous maybe?
I love all my guitars, but I am wondering if my guild broke me for other guitars, of is this just something that happens and eventually I will feel this same passion for the 6 string again? Has this happened to any of you? If so, what helped? Is this something you even want to get over?
I've been in love with the 12 string sound since I was young and the music of the 60s-80s just cemented it my my soul. Folk, rock, country...anything with a 12 string sang to me. John Denver, Eagles, Bon Jovi..even the soundtrack from the old animated version of the Hobbit.
I know that many people think of the 12 string as a situational guitar, but do any of you play one as their main guitar? If so, is there anything you would rather play on a 6 string over your 12?
