12 strings
— modification of a six-string guitar, where 6 pairs of strings are used. The strings within each pair are at a minimum distance from each other and, usually, are tuned in unison or an octave — that is, roughly speaking, they sound together (however, professional guitarists also use more specific tuning options). Such an instrument is mainly used for rhythmic accompaniment: the paired strings are inconvenient for solo parts, but they give a very rich sound in chords and are great for accompaniment. Also note that within the same pair you can use strings of different materials, which gives the sound a special colour.
