Ewan Dobson is continuing his string of prolific output with the independent release of his latest album “12-String Guitar”. Dobson recently had his Stonebridge 12-String re-fretted with jumbo frets, and he immediately put it to use to record this album. All the tracks feature his Stonebridge SJ24SR 12-String. SJ=super jumbo, SR=spruce rosewood
Here’s an excerpt taken from Dobson’s website:
The album “12-String Guitar” contains four new fingerstyle songs as well as re-recordings of some of his previous songs on the 12 string guitar including a duet (multi-tracked) version of the hit song “Time 2.” The extra strings give a new flavour to his already existing works that are normally played on a standard 6 string guitar. This album was dedicated to Leo Kottke, the American fingerstyle guitarist who pioneered the aggressive 12 string guitar style and influenced numerous fingerstyle guitar players around the globe.
