Taylors 12 string version of guitar was not new but it went to become more popular because of 12 strings that results a great looking, easy playing guitar that has the celestial ring and as well as innovative features.

Hi guys,
You all guys are genius in making guitars. Wooden Craft would be good but the wood should be very smooth and strong for that otherwise you can't fix your string bridge into that.

The bridge on my violin is beginning to bend down and back toward the tailpiece. I assume it's because of the pressure of the strings, though there have been a few incidents.
Anyway, what would be the best way to flatten it back out (if that's even advisable)?

Hi,
You can't do any thing to that, Its time to go for new bridge.

On my tanglewood acoustic the string are fed from the rear edge of the bridge, much like a classical guitar. It has 2 MOP dots just behind the saddle one either side whuch I suspect are screws or bolts.
I am toying with the idea to have 6 of the strings strung this way and the other 6 strung using bridge pins, is there a reason why this setup would not work.
See I don't have that much experience but I know that if both strings and bridge mixed guitar becomes more difficult to play, better to put 8 strings using 2 bridge pins it would be helpful for you.

i am not an expert when it comes to humidity.. but my sense is that guitars will always be effected by humidity. I dont see any reason why an old guitar would be more immune to the effects of excessive dryness.. which is the problem you have. I recently posted about this and here is a great link to re-humidifying a guitar.. assuming its not beyond hope.
http://www.taylorguitars.com/contact/customerservice/ and go to videos there are a few humidity vids
I like the videos on humidity. Really they are awesome.
Thanks for that.

OK, well...I've always wanted to do an acoustic, and at the encouragement of my wife (isn't she great!), I took the plunge to build one for the charity auction that our church is running to raise money for a new building. Lacking a thickness sander, I got me the back & sides and plans from LMI and I'm off and running with the Cumpiano book as my reference.
That was about a month ago....with the goal to finish it in 6 weeks. So what happens? Work gets crazy, no way I'm getting done in time (surprise). So I'll have to hold my own auction when its done and donate the proceeds.
Its going to be a dreadnought with a florentine cutaway. So here we go: 3A Sitka spruce top being glued up; its pretty nice, 10-14 lines per inch and no flaws.
I Like the book very much, its really brilliant and the pictures no need to say anything.
Good work keep posting more pictures.

Hi ,
Beginners have to focus on,
When I decided to start playing a short time ago... I learned the basic chords A B C D E F G...along with alot of simple extra chords like Am Dm etc...and after I got good at playing those in any order without hesitation I started out trying to play songs that had easy chords. Most songs I played had 3 or 4 chords. After playing those for about a year I changed my mind and wanted to try and learn the lead guitar parts. I feel it is very important to learn chords before playing lead guitar riffs. It helps you to understand the different sounds on the fret board and build up speed which you will need in the future.
