Hi!

In this clip I compare two great 12 stings:

    Rickenbacker 620/12

I'd very much appreciate your feedback and critique.

Cheers!

Nice playing, Johan. 8) The Gretsch may allow for easier string-bending and vibrato and thus is more useful for blues, but, even with the stock hi gains, I think the Rick simply blows the Gretsch out of the water for shimmering 12-string folk-rock tones. There's no question which guitar won this shootout.
