This increasingly sought-after late 1960s Eko Ranger XII is a 12-string dreadnought acoustic guitar manufactured in Italy, featuring a remarkably stable bolt-on neck construction.

The instrument boasts low, even action across the fingerboard, which facilitates comfortable playing and smooth fretting, ideal for both strumming and intricate fingerstyle techniques.
