The finger-work, the dexterity...man..super-human....that any one person could have a universe of time to practice all of this and still not reach this level leaves me numb
Entirely depends on the individual. I began learnjng guitar aged 12...I could play "Her comes the Sun" .as Doyle is here at aged 15. For a real guitar Genius...check out Tommy Emmanuel..he makes DD look like a clumsy amature.
I have the Godin a12..outstanding guitar, and not expensive at all! takes forever to get out of tune, and sounds great for me unplugged and plugged in.
Hi! nice to meet you! i'm interested in this guitar, Could you tell me if this guitar is loud or not? actually i have an ESP LTD 12 STRINGS,its looks good but in acoustic it sounds very low, I really like this guitar but being so thin I fear that will hear very little, what can you tell me about this? I apologize for my bad english. Greetings my friend!
In today's market it is psychologically very important to keep your prices under 1000 dollars / euros. These A12s are €909.- It is a WISE decision to endorse a guitar factory that makes ecologically built guitars and sells them at a price that is AFFORDABLE. It is not stimulating for young players when they see their idol playing a guitar that they never will be able to buy. Doyle is a Christian and a 'teacher' with ideas about the world. Playing an A12 and a Seagull acoustic is a message to youngsters: "You can achieve this too, if you work a little... buy these guitars... and PRACTICE!"
just read some idiots who haven't mastered a 12.the tuning is about having enough instrument intellegence to know your instrument and how to calibrate it.you guys it's like a woman,you will never get it right but it's sure fun to try.
A 12 string is a whole other animal,you need to tune down 2 steps and use thicker guauge strings,use a lighter pick and adjust your right hand to the needs of a 12.Lets just say you dont wear construction boots to your wedding ...lol
Bob, thanks for sharing. I'm not promoting any guitar or amp...just one of the most amazing finger style guitarists I know. This was impromptu (no practice warm up or sound check), on an unfamiliar guitar and gear in an open booth at NAMM, taken with an iPhone. Please forgive the treble!
Lol! It really depends on the quality of the guitar, tuners and how hard you play. If you bend the strings like a six string (like I do) it will and does go out of tune and can sound pretty nasty. I play 12 string exclusively. I have the same Godin 12 string and it stays in tune very well. My favorite is the Takamine F-440 cutaway. However I wouldn’t use the orange amp with it :)
nut work has to be right and the small octaves have to be fresh and not old and cruddy. If those two things are good and the tuners aren't junk, the guitar will be fine and tune up well. If the nutwork is bad (especially high slot on g), it'll keep you awake at night.

I could become this good in about 1 year
@@magg93 that's quite the ego my friend 🤔
I have been playing for 40+ yrs and this Chet/Merle finger style is one of kind 🤯

This guy is just too much 👍 I'm thoroughly in awe!
I really needed to hear "Here Comes the Sun."

Obviously nothing is as loud as a full bodied acoustic...I can hear mine just fine...plugged in, this is a real beauty.
Thank you man!

Lend yours to Doyle!
Man he sounds great wish he would slow down a bit tho enjoy the song
Love you Doyle !!!
Wonderful.
Fantastic playing!
Thanks for listening. He’s one of the best, and an amazing person!
all the notes are there but i wish hewould relax and let his emotions come thru... he always is in such a hurry. i wish him the best.
Doyle could play a tennis racket and make music
nice work brother,thank you.
Like this guitarist a lot. A12 is awesome too.
great great video different guitar but no bother to him it sounded brilliant

Super👏
That guitar sounds pretty damn thin to me

What is the floating capo 😆
No one else is bothered by the dangling price tag? 😂
These guitars always seem like a good idea... until you hear them.
Godin Guitar...Orange amp... Where is this world going? Nothing will beat the tone of his signature Taylor plugged into his signature Sedona Amp!
Money!
Gotta make a living!
Yuri Gladkov The Takamine Legacy 12 string personally has a better sound
A great guitar player like Doyle can make a $50 guitar sound great!
Yuri Gladkov I thought his Signature Guild had even a better sound, didn’t like the Taylor that much
in the last the guitar string's tune is not true anymore.
And the first one.
Bob Hicks good finger picking but the sound has to much treble .

george harrison fan!
Mark Knopfler would call it a deoderized cowboy singer ,
Solid body electrics sound so wrong
surely impressive technique, but restless and prissy , and so showing little respect for the deep original mood by George
Is that what George told you?
Man that's loud!!!!!
I do not like the sound.
This guys a pickin fool.
12 STRINGS? ... YOU SPEND HALF THE TIME TUNING THEM AND THE OTHER HALF OF THE TIME PLAYING THEM OUT OF TUNE! ... I PRESENT YOU EXHIBIT B
This sounds like a cheap mandolin being played by a drunk bricklayer.
Sounds like a cheap Chinese knock off. Played Here Comes the Sun way too fast.
12 Strings... pfffssH! You spend 1/2 the time tuning them and the other half of the time playing them out of tune.
I've seen several comments that that's not true for this particular guitar.
Artie Fischel well, Doyle's Godin is out of tune. I like Godin guitars though.
Lol! It really depends on the quality of the guitar, tuners and how hard you play. If you bend the strings like a six string (like I do) it will and does go out of tune and can sound pretty nasty.

Total bollocks my dear friend...depends on the quality of your 12 string guitar and how you play it.
nut work has to be right and the small octaves have to be fresh and not old and cruddy. If those two things are good and the tuners aren't junk, the guitar will be fine and tune up well.
If the nutwork is bad (especially high slot on g), it'll keep you awake at night.
I hate a 12-string guitar no matter who plays it. Makes me want to sew my ears shut.
