Builders! 12 string spacing at nut and bridge?

Don McClellan · From: California/Thailand

If you were making a 12 string lap steel with a tuning that called for little or no slanting at all, what should the spacing be at the nut and bridge? I think this question is a little different from the other string spacing thread currently going because I believe they're talking about 6 or 8 stringers which one would want to do a lot of slanting on. Anyway, thanks for any and all comments. Don

The 12 string SuperSlide utilizes .284 at the nut and .344 at the bridge according to a previous post here somewhere. This is also a common pedal steel spacing. Should be fine for what your looking for.
