OK,

FAUX XII

FENDER XII are 12 strings.

The original idea was to copy the look of the FENDER XII but have it be 6 string.
as time has went on it looks less like a FENDER XII. but I kept the faux(fake/pretend) XII name.

that looks kinda like slayer, but it actually looks really cool visually especially the color scheme with the logo and the guitar itself(i.e. white and red)
