Guitar Hack: How to make a 6 string guitar sound more like a 12 string guitar. jammin' with @gibber

I present to Whaleshares a "hack"to making a regular 6 string guitar sound more like a 12 string guitar, in fact, if you accompany someone who is playing a regular guitar together the sound will be the same as a twelve string. It's simple and has been around a very long time but hardly anyone knows about it these days... Let's get started. I would do this on a secondary guitar, not your main one. You will need a pack of D'Addario EJ38H, or similar strings. No modification the the guitar required or encouraged. It will take you about 20 minutes but then you can get back to jammin' ;9)

Standard tuning: E a d g b e

I need to make a small correction, I said G minor when the chord was G Major.
C Dm Em Am G F G then C Dm G
