Thank you very much! Too bad about breaking that finger. Yikes! Congratulations on the nice sounding guitar. Jeff

Insane. Sir, you are an inspiration to me. I just got a really cheap 12 string on eBay. It sounds so sweet. It came in the mail on Friday. on Saturday morning i broke my left index finger and now I cannot play anymore. So unfortunate. Anyway, I figure, just 20 more years of practice and I might get as good as you.

Definitely take it to a stand alone guitar store or guitar repair shop. Don't take it to a pawn shop to have this done. I think it usually will cost about $75 - $100 to have this job done right. Or, you can buy a good file at a hardware store for about $1 - $5 and try it yourself. Just be very careful. I had a shop do the nut for about $30 and then I did the bridge by myself. Jeff

Takamine's are notorious for high action it seems. I took this guitar to a guitar repair shop and they filed down the nut quite a bit. I also filed down the bridge quite myself. The action is set way higher than it needs to be by Takamine. I don't know why. Anyway, some filing makes it much more playable. Be careful though. It's probably better to have a repair person do it.

i have that exact same guitar, and i got it because i am, 6'7" tall so i have big hands and the takamine was the widest neck 12 string i could find in the 800 or less pricerange...but can I have to push down so hard when i play b/c strings are so far up from fretboard...can that be changed? strings are closer near the nut, but like half inch away near soundhole, hard to play there.

I will never be anywhere near as good as Leo Kottke. He's in a different league all together. Complete, unexplainable genius. Thank you though.

almost as good as leo kottke...get rid of the guitar body drumming though. that would sound good with a cedar top, but not spruce.

Thank you. I take it as a great compliment to be compared to Andy McKee. He's really great. I learned a lot of what I do on this song from listening to and watching the gutarist Preston Reed. Jeff
