Deering
Joe Satriani played a D-12 on the song, "Rubina's Blue Sky Happiness" on his "Extremist" CD that went Gold. David Hidalgo played a D-12 on Los Lobos' "Kiko" CD on the song, "Two Janes".

Thanks for the heads up on this...never saw a 12 string banjo before!
Probably best left for someone with deeper pockets who could do the thing some justice! I've never even played a banjo, but this looks pretty cool!
Thanks though!

Location: Yucaipa, California | I had a Gold Tone 6-string banjo... both the 6 & 12 have guitar necks and use standard guitar chord fingering (3 chord limit... :rolleyes: ) they are way cool... even Keith Urban plays a Deering 6-string.
I sold my 6sb to a guy in Surfer Band... should be interesting :cool: |

I'm just teasing, I really like banjos. (Just not too close.) Lets face it, Foggy Mountain Breakdown wouldn't sound right without a banjo. And a tuba. Haha, teasing again!

Location: Phoenix AZ | You know Nils, I was going to write the same thing "?? times more annoying than a 5 string banjo" earlier today but I couldn't work out the math. Plus, it's not exactly 2 and 2/5 times as annoying because the 5 string is really only 4 1/2 strings, right? Be that as it may, I think I've got a pretty good idea what it sounds like. "Nuts in a vise" comes to mind. |

My bluegrass sensibility has just been stretched to it's limit. I have had to endure newgrass by Bela Fleck on 5 strings and old old grass on gut string replicas that sounds like someone playing on bicycle wheel spokes (which I tried as a child when I couldn't afford an instrument).
12 string banjo? That is like sticking a Caterpillar D-8 Diesel in a formula 1, thinking the torque will overcome the weight.
No Way!!!
