newer ones don't have the nice bridge like this one...

http://cgi.ebay.com/1982-Fender-XII-12- ... 240%3A1318

and it international ships too, i don't know if it would be a good idea to buy it for parts though.

BAASSTTAAAARRRDDDD!

Really, did you pick it up.....

I probably shouldn'e spend any more $ right now with xmas, both kids Bdays coming up and a trip to disneyland...

But it is a fender 12 string for under 500...

FUCK

nah I'm just kidding. I've got a venus Xii with that bridge. It is a great design.

I have to think about that a bit....Long Beach to Temecula isn't too bad of a drive and it seems a decent price.

i wonder how many more are out there like this.
i wonder if anyone plans on parting on out soon.

rob, i'll chip in for the neck/tuners if you take the body

what's the point in parting them out? unless you have easy access to all the other obscure xii parts.

tis trew, i have waited a long time on ebay for a broken venus that i can steal from, and a vintage one, but the only one that i have seen was like 249 bucks or something.

i seem to remember someone saying you could get the bridge assy from japan. leftover vista parts or something.
might be tough tracking down, though.

a venus xii went for just shy of $400 a few weeks ago, it would have been good for the pickups and bridge, plus they have a bound neck iirc
