I was hoping for a reasonable quality and sound from this Fender instrument given it is certainly not the cheapest 12 string around but I was disappointed immediately on playing it. The set up seemed okay but the intonation was out on the 14th fret and higher on certain strings. I do not normally need a tuner but I had wanted to try alternate tunings so the fact that the on-board tuner was highly inaccurate (compared with my outboard, software and other tuners) was surprising and very frustrating. On delivery the 2nd G-string was out of position (sitting in the D-string groove) and seems like the wrong weight when compared to the other string pairings (was it replaced before shipping?). The overall sound quality lacked the richness one would expect from 12 string - both acoustically and through the on-board pick-up. I have returned the instrument to Thomaan (a first for me) and will be looking to spend a little more on a quality 12-string because this Fender just does not cut it.
