Do you have any information on 12-string guitar that I can do?

I'm looking to buy a guitar string 12 but do not really know much about it and before i spend my money on it, I was wondering if someone could please give me some pros and cons of this, a price range of a normal 12-string, and all you know, like what type of chain is best to get, etc. Thanks:)

12 string guitars with six courses of paired strings. Both best pairs are tuned in unison and the last four are tuned in octaves. Since there are twice as many strings, the force needed to fret the strings is duplicated and therefore very demanding on the fingers and hand. For this reason it is important that action is just right, not so high as to make things even worse. I believe 12 years have accompanies a better singing voice than as solo instruments. This is because the highest score at 12 is the third partner, octave G. This means that only runs strings from low to high strings sound strange as it seems the playing field of a record drop suddenly. I would not recommend a chain of 12 for a beginner. It is better to learn by 6 and then get a 12 on the line when you have more experience. They are available in all price ranges but the cheap ones are not recommended. The best 12-string guitars are made by Breedlove and Taylor. The Breedlove SJ25-12 is highly recommended as is the LKSM Taylor (Leo Kottke Signature Model). The chains are entirely a preference personal. For any string of six states that since it is likely to be a 12-string counterpart. Martin, Elixir, and many others are good chain of 12 sets. Good luck.
