The first step is to tune the guitar. The 12-string neck should be tuned to standard EADGBE, while the 6-string neck should be tuned to standard EADGBE.
Holding the guitar
The next step is to hold the guitar correctly. The 12-string neck should be cradled in the left hand, while the 6-string neck should be held in the right hand. The thumb of the left hand should be placed behind the neck of the guitar, while the thumb of the right hand should be placed on the top of the neck.
Plucking the strings
To pluck the strings, use the fingers of your right hand. The index finger should pluck the high E string, the middle finger should pluck the B string, the ring finger should pluck the G string, and the pinky finger should pluck the D string. The thumb of the right hand should pluck the low E string.
Playing chords
To play chords, use the fingers of your left hand to press down on the strings. The index finger should press down on the 2nd fret of the high E string, the middle finger should press down on the 3rd fret of the B string, the ring finger should press down on the 4th fret of the G string, and the pinky finger should press down on the 5th fret of the D string. The thumb of the left hand should press down on the 1st fret of the low E string.
Playing melodies
To play melodies, use the fingers of your right hand to pluck the strings while the fingers of your left hand hold down the notes. You can also use a slide to play melodies. To do this, place the slide on the string and slide it up and down the neck of the guitar.
