The best 12 string acoustic guitar is one that fits your budget, playing style, personality and delivers the rich chorus sound you want. Our range is comprehensive, with acoustic/electric hybrids, hollow body and solid body models in left handed and right handed orientations.
When you’ve mastered the six string and feel capable and confident in your playing ability, investing in a 12-string is a great way to push your creative boundaries. Coupled octave strings can make playing a little more difficult as it requires more force, but the results are rewarding, with a shimmering sound that will enhance your performances. The 12-string acoustic guitar is no stranger to the spotlight, having been in the hands of Tom Petty, Bon Jovi, R.E.M, and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. It’s also responsible for the iconic intro solo of The Eagles’ Hotel California.
It’s easy to fall in love with a 12 string acoustic guitar at first glance, but remember, the action is likely to be high, so you’ll need to press a lot harder for clear notes. Usually players delving into the 12-string world will be capable of hammering down with force.
Decide if you want an amplified sound from your 12 string acoustic guitar, best captured by hybrid models that offer both acoustic and electric sound.

Each one of the options in our range are as impressive to look at as they are to play.
