There are now a few acoustic patches to choose from so I thought I might as well have a go!

This one is really designed to be out on it's own or certainly dominant and it's also designed really for picking which is it's strong point as the demo hopefully shows.

Ctrl 1 switches 12 string and Ctrl 2 switches reverb. Alt tuning is drop D.

It is heavily limited but nevertheless is still quite responsive. The demo was created with no extra FX, GK3 on GK3 setting and 9 gauge strings.

Enjoy  ;D

The demo is all finger picked except for "Even in the Quietest Moments"

EDIT Revision 2 Quick update with something that might be usefull - I've added a liveness control on the GK volume pot so you can go from dry to a subtle but effective live ambience.

Cheers guys  :)

Should say that was done with fresh set of Ernie Balls (hence the tuning issues lol) and also I run my GK3 sensitivity pretty hot
