1966 Fender Electric XII 12-String Sunburst
1966 Fender Electric XII 12-String Sunburst
SETUP & INSPECTED BY OUR TECH TEAM
All of our guitars come with a FREE professional setup to a comfortable action as specified by that instrument’s manufacturer. Our setups always include inspection of (and necessary adjustment to): action, intonation, tremolo angle, truss rod, frets, nut, bridge, and more. We can accommodate special setup requests - additional charges and/or shipping delays of 1-2 business days could occur.
INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED
After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.

SPECS
Weight: 8.1 lbs
Case: Original Hardshell Case
Year: 1966
Condition:
This vintage instrument has truly lived a full life, with the wear and tear to prove it. Covered in dings, dents, scratches, and plenty of character, it tells a story of countless songs and years of playing. There is one finish-only crack in the neck pocket.
Tech Notes: Guitar plays great up and down the board! It is setup with an easy playing medium low action with almost no relief. The neck angle is spot on and there are no dead spots up and down the board, but past the 15th fret it starts to lightly choke, a very common issue for older Fenders. Pickups sound strong and clear. There is little to no fret/board wear. Setup with a standard D'Addario 10-46 12 string set
Rotary Switch was changed and re-wired…
1 - neck pickup
2 - both pickups in parallel, out of phase
3 - both pickups in parallel, in phase
4 - bridge pickup
Which we left alone since it was quite convenient and worked great!
Neck Profile: D shape
Neck Thickness: 1st: .89" / 12th: .91"
Fingerboard Radius: 7.25"
Nut Width: 1.64"
Scale Length: 25.5"
Electronics Layout: Volume, Tone, 4 way rotary
String Gauge: 10-46 (12 String
Please note: All measurements are taken in-house. While we strive for accuracy, slight variations may occur compared to manufacturer specifications due to the nature of hand-measuring.
