Now it's time for a Squier CV Electric XII, there is no excuse since there is a fitting bridge in production now!

Whoa, interested in pricing vs vintage.

You can search for those at Thomann but the product pages are not there yet. Comes in LPB, OLW and 3TSB.

Re: Fender Alternate Reality Electric XII 12-String
ok. im sorry but now it's on here, i can say this.
one of my mates in a local guitar shop hinted this was coming but i wasnt aloud to say. he knew i loved electric xii's and simply said "keep an eye out in the next few months for the return of the hockey stick"
now we know a price. im gonna be saving.

Re: Fender Alternate Reality Electric XII 12-String
Sweet, that's one of this forum's most tenacious dreams come true. First it was the Squier Bass VI and now this. I can't wait for the months to come when no one gives Fender shit for anything

Re: Fender Alternate Reality Electric XII 12-String
It's interesting when you see features such as the bridge go into production by Fender.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe it was Faction guitars that came up with the metal surround for the gotoh 12 string bridge.
It's cool that this forum itself is having a direct influence on fender.

So happy about this, been making offer on vintage ones for months with no luck but this is affordable! brilliant.
Now to decide which colour...
