Let's hope it feels and sounds as good as it looks..
Oh and that the frets are level and non lethal at the fingerboard edges..
It's apparently coming on Monday,,,which seems like ages away..lol

I've owned a couple of original Fender XIIs in the past both from 66 if I remember correctly. They are great instruments BUT the 'F' style tuners from that era are pretty ropey for a XII and the newer 'F' style reissues don't fit. In my case I was lucky because both were made during the transition between the older and better Klusons and the ropey 'F' tuners - on these transition models Fender had already drilled the screw holes for the Klusons and then drilled new screw holes for the F type tuners  and the large 'F' covers the unused Kluson holes. So, in my case I was able to fit the reissue Klusons without modding the headstock while I had the guitars and refit he tuning was then great. If you are in the market for a real one I'd go for one with the Klusons - it saves a lot of hassle but they are rarer to find.
