General
What do Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Jimmy Page and Don Felder all have in common? They have composed some of the most legendary songs in music history with a 12-string guitar. Guild offers this Jumbo F-1512E 12-string with Fishman electronics that offers a full sound thanks to its huge body. It features a C-profile neck, a flat fretboard, and a broad string nut for optimal playing comfort. What's more, this model is adorned with a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, black-and-white purfling, and a richly decorated sound hole rosette.
F-1512E: Fishman Sonitone pickup
The Guild F-1512E has a solid spruce top and solid rosewood sides and back, which offer a splendid visual contrast and a balanced tone. Spruce provides extra clarity, while rosewood adds warm accents to this guitar's sound. It sounds great when played acoustically, and thanks to the Sonicore pickup by Fishman, it sounds great when amplified as well. The Sonitone preamp gives it an extra-rich sound that you can fine-tune to perfection using the volume and tone controls. In short, the F-1512E is an excellent option for playing plugged in as well as unplugged!
Guild Westerly Collection
Guild have been building high-quality instruments since 1953, and their acoustic guitars hark back to earlier, vintage models. Each of the steel-string guitars in their Westerly series feature solid woods and are equipped with a number of tasteful, luxurious details. What's more, the headstock is adorned with a pearloid Chesterfield emblem inlay and all of the guitars feature a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard. The Westerly series offers top-quality acoustic guitars at an attractive price and each guitar comes with a compatible Guild Polyfoam case.

Wrote the following about Guild F-1512E Natural Westerly electro-acoustic 12-string guitar
Mooie, ronde en luide klank. Speelt prima. Lekkere brede hals. Mooi afgewerkt. Goede materialen gebruikt. Ik kon het niet laten om Give a Little Bit en Even In the Quietest Moments van Supertramp te spelen.
Een minpuntje: het valt niet mee om de batterij van het element te vervangen. De batterij (9 V) zit in een zwart hoesje dat met klittenband aan de basis van de hals is bevestigd. Je kunt er niet bij met je vingers zonder een aantal snaren te verwijderen. Zeker de eerste keer als er nog geen batterij is geplaatst. Bij levering zat de batterij los in de koffer.
