strings for hamer 12 string bass?

[Builda ba5s]

so i want a hamer chaparral 12 string-style bass but i was wondering if it required special strings or whether i could use 2 sets of normal electric guitar strings and a set of normal bass strings or would that not work?

Um, no. No guitar strings. There are special strings. Try here: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. And maybe do some reading here: http://12stringbass.net/

There are a couple different pre packaged 12 string sets out there.
