Lot Essay

KK: Can you tell us about this Martin 12-string?

JC: When I got this guitar I was listening to a lot of Roger McGuinn and the Byrds. A lot of what comes over in those groups like the Byrds and Crosby, Stills and Nash are the 12-string overtones combined with the harmonies. It's very beautiful.
By now I was carrying both a 6-string and a 12-string for my concerts. Today I mostly perform on a 12-string.
