Was expecting better
Ordered a RB-612CS guitar even though they were out of stock, waited not very patiently for it to arrive after its pre-checks were done. When it arrived I was disappointed with some of the surface blemishes that were visible and with how it played. It did not suit me at all and I would rather play my Gibson Double neck for its 12 string neck than use the RB-612CS. I returned it to Thomann for a refund.
I will say though, that when you couldn't see the blemishes the guitar looks stunning, every bit like the Rickenbacker it is supposed to resemble.

Pretty good 12-string
Taking into account the price range of this guitar, it does pretty good what it has to do. You get this typical 12-string sound you would expect from a higher price range guitar like danelectro or even the rickenbackers. Logically, the price comes with it's negatives in the finish. I had to adjust the bridge and sadle pieces myself a bit with some filing to get the string height better. They weren't from the best quality, but hey: you got a 12-string for under ¤300!

Needs more work that some of the others
If you are prepared to get this re-strung R*ck*nb*ck*r style [thick strings at the top, not like this [acoustic style] with thin strings at the top] then even with the pickups it has it sounds amazingly close to a 330 or 360/12. How do I know ? Because I also have a 360/12 and used to have a 330/12.
So much of that classic sound comes from being able to pedal bass notes and this can get there with mods that cost less than a R*ck*nb*ck*r case does !!
