About this listing
1965 Fender XII in fair to low condition. The good stuff, it sounds amazing. The bad stuff, well it's in dire need of a clean up. This is a road warriors guitar. It's seen some action. Feels amazing to play with a superb neck shape and the beautiful feeling wood grain. Comes with gig bag
Famous for its distinct "hockey-stick" headstock and use on recordings like Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven", an original 1965 model generally sells on the vintage market between $9,000 and $14,000+ AUD depending on condition and finish.
