Stick Tunings 12-string Stick Guitar®

Offset Guitars on SG12™
  (2 string groups of guitar based tunings, offset by a 4th)

This Stick Guitar tuning is like having a double-neck guitar on one fretboard, with the two groups of strings offset by a 4th from each other, making one group better suited to accompaniment and the other to lead melody. All the familiar guitar chords and scales are there in both string groups.

A more vertical playing position eases wrist strain and gives each hand equal access to either string group.
