Fender Villager 12-String Walnut Fingerboard Tortoiseshell Pickguard Aged Natural
Inspired by the iconic designs of Fender electric guitars, California Player acoustics evoke the west coast spirit of adventure and freedom, inviting musicians to explore their individual creativity and disrupt the status quo. Crafted with an X-braced solid spruce top and sapele back and sides, the Villager™ 12-string features a non-cutaway Newporter auditorium body shape which produces a versatile voice that’s both articulate and powerful while offering a comfortable feel for hours of inspiration. The nato neck is designed with an easy-to-play slim “C”-shaped profile featuring graphite reinforcement rods for stability, a 24.75" scale length for comfortable tension, and a 1960s-inspired ”hockey stick” headstock for a distinctive look born from Fender’s acoustic heritage. Other notable details include vintage-style tuning machines for smooth, accurate tuning, a GraphTech® NuBone® nut and saddle for signature 12-string chime, and a Fishman® Flex preamp system that allows faithful reproduction of the guitar’s natural sound when plugged into an amplifier or recording device. A deluxe gig bag is included. Bold, eye-catching and unique, California Series instruments make no compromises balancing effortless playability, superior sound, and standout style for those who aspire to play something different.Product SpecsGeneralModel Name: Villager™ 12-String, Walnut Fingerboard, Tortoiseshell Pickguard, Aged NaturalModel Number: 0970792134Series: CaliforniaColor: Aged NaturalOrientation: Right-HandCountry Of Origin: IDNeckHeadstock: Vintage Fender® Villager™ ShapeNeck Material: NatoNeck Finish: Satin UrethaneNeck Shape: Slim "C"Neck Construction: Set-Neck with Graphite ReinforcementFingerboard Radius: 12" (305 mm)Position Inlays: White DotNumber of Frets: 20Truss Rod: Modern Heel AdjustString Nut: Graph Tech® NuBone™Nut Width: 1.77" (45 mm)Nut Material: Graph Tech® NuBone™Fret Size: 2mmScale Length: 24.72" (628 mm)BodyBody: Solid Spruce Top with Laminated Sapele Back and SidesBody Finish: Gloss PolyBody Shape: NewporterBody Binding: Aged WhiteBody Top: Solid Sitka SpruceBody Back: SapeleBody Sides: SapeleBracing: Forward Shifted Scalloped XRosette: 2-Ring B/W/BHardwareBridge: Modern VikingHardware Finish: NickelTuning Machines: Vintage-StyleStrings: Fender® 70-12L, 80/20 Bronze (.010-.050 Gauges), PN 0730070423ElectronicsControls: Volume, Tone, Push Tone Knob For Phase ControlAdditional InfoCase/Gig Bag: Gig Bag
