Is the Eko Ranger XII VR 12-string electro-acoustic worth buying, or should I consider alternatives?

The Eko Ranger XII VR in Honey Burst suits a buyer looking for a 12-string electro-acoustic at the lower of the two supplied electro-acoustic prices. At £299 new, it costs £60 less than the Fender CD-140SCE-12 Dreadnought 12-String Electro Acoustic Natural.

The Fender is the most directly relevant alternative here. If you can try both, compare playing comfort, tuning stability and amplified sound before deciding whether the extra spend is worthwhile. The supplied information does not establish a quality or playability advantage for either guitar.

If buying used is an option, the Best-value used acoustic guitars list is another place to compare options. Check each instrument’s condition and setup rather than assuming a used guitar will necessarily be better value.
