I just got this baby in Black and boy it is sweet. I had it set up right out of the box. for the price you cannot beat it. A new set of strings and your ready to play to the angels. Yea their are better models but for your first 12 try this and enjoy. p.s. get a hard case your going to have it a long time. keep rocking

A Great Guitar, Certainly Made For The Stage

This Fender is a more than a great guitar. In fact, you'll want to take it out and play with it every moment you can. The sound is robust and pleasant, and the feeling it evokes is certainly impregnated in every note it plays.

I'm a professional musician, and I have played a lot of excellent options that I also love so much (Martin, Gibson,... ), and I can say that this is a guitar that I'll be bringing with me to every tour date.

i was looking to buy a 12 string for 6 months. i was set on the normon b-20, which has the same fishman preamp and is made of the same material. however the fender plays better and is a better looking guitar. i definatly made the right choice with the fender.

Great 12 String sound

This is full bodied so it has more sound than the cut-aways I have played. I played this once and bought it! The only issue I have is that the action is higher than what I like. I am adjusting as I change strings. (not the fun part of having a 12 string)But the tuner is great and makes tuning a breeze. The pick-up sings through my amp and the build quality is flawless. Definately a good intermediate 12 string! A True Must Buy!

PERFECT 12....

I've had this guitar for a couple of years now and it is still amazing. The tone is beautiful and the electronics are some of the best for its price. I picked the black one simply for the white binding, and the little things like the snowflake inlays are what make this guitar so great. A breeze to tune and action that is unmatched this is a must buy for fender or 12-string fans. P.S. unpluged this is one of the loudest acoustic guitars I've Played in my 11 years of experience!
