User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Worth Buying
First off, like has already been stated, THIS IS NOT THE FULL ALBUM! The original release had Ballad of Jed Clampett and Wimoweh, and for some reason, this release omitted those pieces. Maybe the original recordings were just too far gone, who knows?

That said, Glen Campbell has always been a bit overlooked when it comes to guitar talent. Most know he had (and still has) a very wonderful singing voice, but many neglect that Campbell was one of the hottest studio guitarists shortly before he began his vocal career. While he’s no Leo Kottke, Glen displays his outstanding guitar abilities on his 12 string on these folk songs. If you’re a fan of GC, or just guitar playing in general, I definitely recommend this one.

2 Stars Not the full album
Unfortunately, this digital album omits two tracks from the original 12 track release; Ballad of Jed Clampett & Wimoweh.

Techniques for Contemporary 12 String Guitar VHS VHS

This video lesson provides new insights into the sonic possibilities and boundless opportunities for innovation on the 12-string guitar. Chris Proctor tackles a wide range of ideas and techniques, taking this richly toned instrument into new and undiscovered territory.

This course is jam-packed with invaluable information, including important tips on tuning, stringing and setting up the 12-string for maximum output and intonation. You’ll learn the open G and C tunings pioneered and widely used by Leo Kottke and other leading 12-string stylists, and the way Chris tunes down a step to get more resonance and depth from his instrument.

Most 12-string players strike the octave and unison pairs of strings simultaneously. Chris shows you a revolutionary way of picking the twelve strings individually, using alternate thumb and finger picking within the pairs of strings. Fiddle tunes such as “Sailor’s Hornpipe” and “Fisher’s Hornpipe” can be played with flowing melodies and resonant, ringing tones using a minimum of left hand movement.

Chris covers many other important skills, including use of the bottleneck slide, fingerpicks, string mute, harmonics (especially lush on the 12-string guitar), and other techniques that will help you to play powerful and evocative instrumentals. You’ll learn, in detail, “Halfway,” “Bells of the Harbor,” “War Games” and “Over the Pass.” The session ends with Chris’ beautiful performance of his arrangement of “Merrily Kiss the Quaker’s Wife.”
