12-String Electric Guitars

The twelve string guitar is a guitar with twelve strings, which produces a richer, more ringing tone than a standard six string guitar. Essentially, it is a type of guitar with a natural chorus effect due to the subtle differences in string timbre.

Because it is substantially more difficult to pluck individual strings on the twelve-string guitar, and almost impossible to bend notes tunefully, the instrument is rarely used for lead musical parts. It is primarily suited to a rhythm, accompaniment, or solo role, and is often used in folk songs and some popular music.

Some players who used 12-string guitars include:  legendary bluesman Leadbelly, Roger McGuinn of The Byrds, George Harrison in the Beatles,  Peter Buck of R.E.M., Johnny Marr of The Smiths and Noel Gallagher of Oasis.
