General

Carved out of solid wood, the jumbo-bodied Guild F-512 Maple 12-string acoustic guitar effortlessly shapes that rich, warm sound with harp-like clarity, courtesy of a Sitka spruce soundboard that not only comes supported by Adirondack spruce bracing but an arched back and sides made of flamed maple to guarantee maximum warmth and an impressive, sustain-rich sound. Guild have been building 12-strings since the sixties and it's safe to say that all of that experience clearly shines through in the F-512.

Robust Elegance

While spruce and maple are light woods, the natural graining of the flamed maple is enough to create subtly contrasting looks in combination with the black-and-white ABS bindings. Featuring a walnut centre strip, the mahogany neck makes a stunning addition and comes finished with an ebony fretboard lined with mother-of-pearl and abalone V-block position markers, while the dark nitro-finished scratchplate and the subtle, ring-shaped rosette complete the looks. Coated in ever-elegant nitrocellulose lacquer, this imposing twelve-string comes packed up inside a Guild Premium Humidified Wood Case.
