Is there such thing as 12 string fretless guitar?!!
In: Rocking in the free world Thursday Jan 10,2008
Today somebody entered my site searching for 12 strings fretless guitars. Man, is there such thing as 12 strings fretless guitar? What would you do with such an instrument? What would be the use? The exact use of those 12 string would be for strumming while I would find difficult to use chords while fretless…
Anyway, maybe use it like a mandolin? The mandolins I think that have the strings doubled to sound full and can be used at “soloing” at the same time. Because I couldn’t find a picture with a 12 string fretless guitar, here’s a mandolin! 
By the way, if you know somebody knowing somebody who has a friend owning a 12 string fretless axe, let us know!

a Sitar would almost qualify (thinking of the drone strings)…

A sitar has frets, Dr J, if you think abut it. Not quite the “usual” type of frets, but still…

I know the top layer of strings does, but you don’t fret the drone strings (and aren’t there like 15 of them!)… But you’re correct…mea culpa!

Well, my mistake also, actually. I am not that familiar with sitars, I mean I have never had one in my hands, here in Romania they are not that famous. I guess in US neither
but you seem to know what you speak about while I was not aware of the sympathetic set of strings, I always had the impression that it is kind of a regular string instrument: guitar, mandolin, violin, etc, just one set of strings.
