Description
For years Guild guitars have taken a back seat to Martins & Gibsons, but when it comes to 12-String Jumbos, there is no match against the monstrous F-512. Featuring a solid sitka spruce top combined with solid rosewood for the back & sides, this gorgeous Jumbo unleashes a powerful voice that projects like a cannon! Rich, robust & dynamic, not to mention perfectly balanced between the lower & higher registers. Crafted in New Hartford, CT & made to be played!
Cosmetic Condition: Various little nicks, dents & dings along with surface scratches throughout, but particularly on & around the pickguard from heavy strumming. Overall the guitar has a great look to it with an ultra cool vibe.
Neck: Mahogany neck with multi-layer binding & black side-dots. Ebony fingerboard with mother of pearl & abalone block inlays. Frets show some wear, but have plenty of life in them. Bound headstock with ebony overlay. Mother of pearl Guild & Chesterfield inlays. Gotoh open-back tuners with Butterbean buttons. 1 7/8" nut width; 25 5/8" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Double-bound Jumbo size body with solid sitka spruce top in sunburst finish.
Rosewood bridge with compensated saddle. There's an ever so tiny gap at the back of the bridge, but it's not too bad. Tortoise pickguard & abalone rosette. Solid Indian rosewood back & sides with checkered center strip. Guitar weighs 6 lbs 1.9 oz.
Electronics: Active, under-saddle pickup with soundhole-mounted volume & tone controls.
