Roger McGuinn of the Byrds in concert tonight. He still handles the 12 string guitars pretty well.

Delightful.  On the right is an 8-string guitar.  I've only seen instruments like that in Ireland.

As soon as I saw your title, these lyrics played in my head:

McQuinn and McGuire,

Couldn't get no higher,

But that's what they were aiming at..."

He played the 8-string extremely well but the best sound came out of his 12-string. The venue was small (400 seats) and the acoustics were superb. The concert was unusual in that he spent about half the time talking about his early years in the business.
