Summary

Finish: Original

Body Material: Basswood Body

Body Details: Solid basswood body.

Neck Material: Maple Neck

Fingerboard Material: Rosewood Fingerboard

Neck Profile: Medium C-Shape

Neck Thickness (IN): 6-String - 1st fret: .81" / 12th: 8.2" <<>> 12-String - 1st fret: 1st fret: .8" / 12th: .8"

Fingerboard Radius: 7.25

Nut Width: 1-9/16 in

Neck Details: 6-STRING - One-piece bolt-on maple neck with a bound rosewood board, volute, small double-dot inlays, and truss adjustment at the heel. <<>> 12-STRING - One-piece bolt-on maple neck with a bound three-piece rosewood board, volute, double-dot inlays, and non-adjustable truss rod. -- There are signs of a headstock repair and over-spray around the repair. The fretboard, frets, binding, and inlays do not match the 6-string neck. The neck itself appears original, however, it is most likely that the board and binding have been replaced. -- There is an open screw hole on the underside of the volute.

Electronics: Four single-coil pickups (two per neck), two 3-way toggle pickup selector switches (one per neck, bass-side horn and closest to the 6-string neck pickup), one 3-way toggle neck selector switch (treble-side horn), a master volume control and a master tone control. -- Pot code dates are not visible. -- All electronics appear original.

Pickup Measurements: 6-String - Neck: 10.4 kΩ / Bridge: 9.8 kΩ <<>> 12-String - Neck: 10.4 kΩ / Bridge: 10.3 kΩ

Hardware: All hardware appears original.

Modifications / Repairs: The 12-string fretboard and binding have been replaced. Repaired headstock break. The repair has been over-sprayed.

Case: Hardshell Case

Case Details: Vintage Fender style rectangular hardshell with red plush interior.

Cosmetic Condition: This guitar shows age and wear. Checking can be seen throughout the body. The back of both necks are clean and smooth with only a minor ding under the 3rd fret of the 12-string neck.

Tech Notes: 6-String: Currently setup with 10 gauge strings, low action, and optimal neck relief. The frets are small and very low showing light play wear. -- 12-String: This neck is currently setup with 9 gauge, extra light strings. Because of the fretboard replacement, the action is set high with significant relief due to an inoperable truss-rod. The strings fret out from the 12th through the 14th fret and up.
