ImageAnd this is my twelve string.This guitar is in perfect shape except for the rusted screw heads.The body has the normal checking, but not a chip or scratch anywhere! Nothing beats playing one of these!

Very nice indeed! I keep two Mosrite Ventures XXII's in my collection as they are, IMHO, the best electric 12ers ever made. -Marty

What a sweetie. Dig it. Enjoy her!

Is the neck on a 12 any wider than a 6?

It doesnt seem to be. If it is, its only a hair.Im pretty sure its not. All of the components on the six and twelve are the same except the extra long headstock. Body, pickups, tremelo, are the same. The bridge saddles and nut and tremelo just have twice as many holes.
