    Thanks a lot. This is such an amazing idea. I still can’t find something the right size yet though. Can’t wait to try it on my 12 string

    Amazing!
    Its got the Jawari sound for sure…
    The next step would be “sympathetic” strings haha :P 12 strings may kinda duplicate that sound

    is that all you have to do? No string changes?

  23. thenewzen1 on February 27th, 2010 10:09 am

    Nope, that’s it!

  24. thenewzen1 on February 27th, 2010 10:11 am

    Probably not, as the nylon strings won’t create a buzz like the steel strings will just because of their texture. Not to mention that the bridges on those things are really high.
