Best suited for the working musician, the Village 12-string which was first introduced back in 1965 is a distinctive guitar unlike anything else Fender has produced. Sticking out thanks to its maple neck with "hockey stick" headstock, this modern iteration stays true to the Villager's look but updates it with necessary electronics and various appointments. A tasteful rosette, gold pickguard, and black dotted bridge pins are just the beginning of this elegant offering, benefiting from the use of the valuable Fishman Isys III system which echoes the guitar's broad tonal spectrum and boosts its versatility, featuring treble, mid, bass, volume and phase controls for musicians have ultimate and detail control. On top of this is a well-set synthetic bone nut for solid intonation, helping bring to life the awesome acoustic tone that matched up well with the guitar's singular flair.
