{"product_id":"1967-fender-coronado-xii-firemist-gold","title":"1967 Fender Coronado XII, Firemist Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eA superb 1967 Fender Coronado XII, finished in the very rare custom colour Firemist Gold and presented in excellent overall condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Coronado XII was only produced for a short window between 1966 and 1969, and even standard finish examples are not exactly common. To find one in Firemist Gold is something else entirely. It is a wonderfully striking guitar, with the metallic gold finish, matching hockey-stick headstock, bound f-holes and block-and-bound rosewood fingerboard giving it a stunning overall look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example also appears to be the guitar featured in \u003cem\u003eFender: The Golden Age\u003c\/em\u003e, photo-matched by the headstock wear pattern. That is a lovely bit of added interest and this is exactly the sort of rare, eye-catching custom colour Fender you would expect to see documented in such a book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guitar presents very well, with nicely yellowed binding and a very strong overall look. The original matching-headstock neck is stamped FEB 67 and is included, though it is suffering somewhat having been under years of 12-string tension. An additional neck with a black headstock is therefore included in the sale, giving the next owner a practical option while keeping the original neck with the guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpec-wise, it has all the right Coronado XII features: bound rosewood fingerboard with block inlays, Fender trapeze tailpiece, Mustang-style adjustable bridge, bound f-holes and the unmistakable hockey-stick headstock as seen on the Electric XII.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTonally, the Coronado XII has that jangly, airy semi-hollow 12-string voice and character. It is bright and chimey as you'd expect, great for layering in a mix to fill space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll in all, a very rare and highly attractive custom colour Coronado XII in Firemist Gold. A proper late-’60s Fender oddity, and an exceptionally cool one at that!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54909564485971,"sku":"183424","price":3750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/7258\/4275\/files\/1967FenderCoronadoXII-5.jpg?v=1788276568","url":"https:\/\/www.atbguitars.com\/products\/1967-fender-coronado-xii-firemist-gold","provider":"ATB Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
