Rickenbacker 360/12
30 available from $2,099.99Made famous by George Harrison in the ‘60s, the jangly Rickenbacker 360/12 12-string electric guitar has become perhaps one of the most iconic 12-string electrics. With a semi-hollow body and thru-body neck, the 360/12 is able to create a unique tone that is difficult to create with other 12-string guitars. Though this model has undergone many changes and seen many iterations through the years, the newer Rick 360/12 models have a slimmer neck and are still highly-sought instruments. - 4
Rickenbacker 330/12
46 available from $1,999With sharp double-cutaways and the recognizable Rickenbacker body shape made from maple, the semi-hollow Rickenbacker 330-12 12-string electric guitar has proven to be one of the brand's most popular models since the 1960s. The 330-12 has been used for its jangly sound, perfect for pop and various other genres, by the likes of Tom Petty, Johnny Marr, and Peter Buck, to name a few. - 5

Guild Starfire XII Cherry 1966
2 available from $1,950The Starfire XII was introduced as a 12-string version of Starfire IV and V. Like the rest of the Starfire series, the Starfire XII was part of Guild's efforts to break into the electric guitar market in the '60s. While these semi-hollowbodies are considered fine instruments and were adopted by some players at the time, they are of far less interest to collectors than their Gibson equivalents such as the ES-335.
Years of Production: 1966 - 1973
Body Style: Double cutaway semi-hollowbody
Wood Composition: Laminated Maple or Mahogany body, three-piece Maple/Mahogany neck, Rosewood fingerboard
Design Elements: Two humbucker pickups, chrome-plated hardware, harp tailpiece, four control knobs
Notable Starfire Players: Buddy Guy, Lightening Hopkins, Jerry Garcia - 34

Hagstrom XII Sunburst
One available for $2,252.45Like other Hagstroms of this era, the Hagstrom solidbody 12-string was produced in Sweden. This guitar shares a body type with the popular Hagstrom II. The 12-string version, however, does not include a tremolo tailpiece.
Years of Production: 1960s
Notable Hagstrom Players: Kurt Cobain, Frank Zappa, Dave Gregory - 38
Rickenbacker Rickenbacker 620/12 (2000 - 2011)
2 available from $2,599.99A 12-string version of the Rickenbacker 620, the Rickenbacker 620-12 was first launched in 1981 and is still being manufactured today. Sporting the Rick classic cresting wave body, the 620-12 is comprised primarily of maple with a rosewood fingerboard. There's not much of a difference between the 620 and the 620-12 other than, obviously, the six extra strings, but you will get that attractive jangly quality you can find with Rickenbacker 12-string guitars. - 39

Rickenbacker 360/12W
2 available from $2,999The Rickenbacker 360 is considered one of the if not the most iconic Rickenbacker guitar. Both the 12-string (360-12) and 6-string version of this guitar helped define pop music in the '60s most notably as used by the Beatles.
In 2014, Rickenbacker introduced a Walnut version of the 360 (along with several other models) using a Walnut body with Maple neck and fingerboard.
Body Style: Semi-hollowbody, Double cutaway
