Hi everyone, I just got my new Krappy 12 string touchstyle guitar. Uncrossed in 4ths. Anybody out there live in Tennessee that might want to get together sometime? I am in Knoxville. Looking forward to learning all I can about the touchstyle guitar.

Sorry, I don't live anywhere close to Tennessee, but it would be interesting to know who else around here is playing uncrossed parallel 4ths.

I have one instrument in this tuning, which I use for bass lines (left hand) and accompaniment chords (right hand) along with a band. Is that what you were going to use the tuning for?

Probably want to be able to do solo stuff, bass & chords, melodies, etc. might be interesting to use it in a band context though......

My only fear is being able to train the right hand to tap or touch, the left hand is no problem for me, after playing regular guitar for 25 or so years....

If you're right handed, that won't be a problem. Yuor right hand can do anything your left can do, only better and faster. Youre right hand will quickly reap the benfit of training the left for 25 years. They're connected to the same brain you know.
