As Guild is so infamous for their 13 strings I'm interested in seeing if anyone here strings their 12 strings as a 6 string. I had a different brand of 12 string for over 10 years, for the most part I just strung it as a 6 string. The thing is I eventually got issues with it, buzzing, action. This was also before I ever had a clue about humidity and guitars, I never humidified my guitars, so I tend to think having half the tension by only using 6vstring sets was fine, but the humidity issues and never getting setups was the culprit.
There wouldn't be any fundamental issue with using a 12 string as a 6 string would there? I've been told you shouldn't as the neck is built for much more tension, but as long as it's a 2 way truss rod it shouldn't matter should it?
