I just ordered a 12 string electric guitar (Burns Double Six).  What are some things I should listen to to rip off err.. I mean, for inspiration?  The Searchers are high on the list.  Maybe you know some cool things that I don't know or forgot about.

Byrds, Byrds and more Byrds. The Dovers, Roosters, Guilloteens - basically tons of Californian folk rock/garage, '65-'67.

Great Fookin' Geetar mate!   I have one of those on my wish list, last I heard was that Burns wasn't gonna ship them to the US or other countries anymore.  

 

Congratulations!

I just saw the Cynics play and that guy used an electric twelver on many songs.
Burns? GOOD CALL!!!! I Have a Dano, which I like a lot, but I have tried a couple of Burns and they were great guitars....just a bit out of my price range......I am with Mole, but would add some of the bands on the Hideout comps....particularly The Ugly Beats on Vol.2.....
From what I understand, Burns is just starting to distribute in the U.S. again.  I have mine on order and it's going to take a while to be delivered.  It was impossible to find a 12 string in a store to test drive or even get someone to get a price and delivery date not just on a Burns but any 12 string.  I finally  went through a local dealer that the stateside Burns rep pointed me to.  I wonder why so many people order things on line (sarcasticlly).

check out Leadbelly if you're into the old delta blues sort of thing.  He played acoustic 12-string but it's still great stuff!

The Zombies are on my rip off list, too.

O Lendario Chucrobillyman.
Hes got his CD for free download on Myspace.


the intelligence have alot of guitars done with 12 strings.
I think Koti only uses 6 strings on his 12 string guitar, has anyone ever seen him use 12 strings?

Listen to The Choir, "I'd rather you'd leave me" has a mean 12 string intro. Also check out The Turtles first couple of albums.
