Fender first made the Electric XII in 1965, with originals commanding high prices on the vintage market. Now, the company has re-engineered the model from the ground up for the Alternate Reality Electric XII. It has the familiar body, headstock, and sound of the original, but the split-coil pickups are newly designed, with a 3-position switch that lets you player either pickup on its own or in tandem. It has a modern C-shaped neck profile, 9.5-inch fretboard radius, and 22 medium-jumbo frets.
