This 1979 Fender F-55-12 12 string acoustic is a decent player with a solid spruce top and it is in excellent cosmetic condition as well.
The odd thing about this guitar is the fretboard. For some reason, someone has lowered the fretboard level by sanding and/or filing it, leaving the frets at their full height. It is an interesting way to get better playability out of what are low frets from the factory. Frankly, it worked - the guitar does play well and is likely far easier to fret than it was. The work was done with skill, however misguided the effort was. The frets show little wear, as is the case with the rest of the guitar.
When we received the guitar there was no saddle in the bridge, so we shaped one to fit.
Aside from the fretboard, the guitar is all original with no other repairs or issues.
A hard case is included.
