Here is the complete scale, so, as Joe pointed out, if you know the chords in 'C' but want the song in 'D' you go up two frets. If you want it in 'E' you go up four frets. I hope this helps.

G# or Ab
G
F# or Gb
F
E
D# or Eb
D
C# or Db
C
B
A# or Bb
A

The way dudes asked about is the way Rickenbacker 12-string guitars get their unique sound.  But, as others pointed out, it would require re-working  the nut and bridge slots.  The reason Ricks sound different is that the human ear hears the very slight delay in the picked strings even though the difference is less than a second.  We end to remember the last note  played.  It would be interesting to see if Rickenbacker would be interested in making an acoustic guitar similar to a 360-12.

Thank you for this Bob. I did not know that Rickenbacker strung this way.

Phill, Roberto is Dutch and he goes to an English speaking school here so his English is perfect (he also speaks Portuguese fluently).

He soon realised his mistake from our reaction.

From 18:00 to 19:00, Rock Choir Members, Naomi (a 14 year old singer), Roberto (a 14 year old lead guitarist), Bruno (16 year old bass player), Howard and myself have a session to sort out new stuff for the choir. It is at the shop so there are a number of guitars around including Howard's Ovation Thunderbolt.

This evening Roberto went to Howard and asked, "Do you mind if I play your Ovulation?".......Well we just cracked up.

When I could speak again I told him he could, but only for a short period.

Here you go Josh (unfortunately you sent them in a zip file so the definition is not as good as it could be, they were only 100kb photos when I usually work with at least 2Mb).

Try pressing control and minus (ctrl and -) to reduce your screen resolution. This usually does the trick.

It is not my guitar it is a customer's. It had been shipped from Sweden and arrived like this. The owner brought it in and gave it to us to break for spares..... he had a nice surprise next time he called in smile.

With wooden dowels and some strong wood glue it could be repaired. Here is the before and after of an Ibanez that I repaired a couple of years ago although with the long break it did not need dowels:

Open the song in your songbook by clicking on green word "edit" to the right of the song title.

This will take you into the editable chopro version of the song. All the chords are between square brackets, i.e. "[F#m]". Alter the chord to the one that you want then press the 'Update preview' to check it is OK, then press 'Save'.

Hi Bobby,

I did manage to find these chords but I have not checked them for accuracy and, although the key is probably difficult, you can transpose from here. It should give you a basis to work from.
