Up for sale, a 1967 Fender Coronado XII in exceptional, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Weighing a mere 6lbs 2oz, this fully hollow instrument has a bright and clear acoustic voice that translates well through the pair of original DeArmond made single coil pickups. Chiming, warm, and articulate when plugged in, the pickups deliver a wide range of tones, from sinewy twang and sparkle in the bridge position, to more mellow and full bodied tones at the neck. Professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar, this Coronado plays as well as the day it left the factory, with fresh strings and low, comfortable action. The neck has a medium C profile with a bound Brazilian rosewood fretboard sporting pearloid block inlays. The lacquer on the back of the neck shows practically no yellowing from age and the frets have been freshly leveled and crowned. We’ve also given great attention to the straightness and viability of this neck and the truss rod is working with ideal relief and comfortable action in all registers. The original nut is intact and well cut, with each course of strings evenly spaced and lining up perfectly with the pole pieces of both pickups. The F tuners on the headstock shine like new, turn smoothly and hold pitch well. On the face of the headstock, the finish shows no notable wear with a flawless “Fender Coronado XII” decal on the top of the hockey stick headstock shape. On the body, all of the electronics work as they should and both DeArmond-designed Coronado pickups have a clear, chimey tone reminiscent of the company’s famed gold foil design. The nitro lacquer finish is 100% original, transitioning from deep burgundy at the edges to amber at the center. There is one spot of finish wear between the edge of the pickguard and the knobs, a few assorted finish scratches on the back, and light wear in the pick path. The original Victoria Luggage hardshell case is included. This case shows its fair share of wear on the exterior, yet still has working latches, original handle, and a clean gold interior.
