Description:
Designed in the late 1960s as Guild’s first jumbo 12-string, the F-512E continues to win over 12-string enthusiasts who love the projection, volume, and rich tone of this seminal acoustic. Legendary players like Pete Townshend, Brian May, and John Denver fell in love with the bold tone and incredible volume of this legendary acoustic. From folk to rock, the F-512E has found its way onto many great recordings, earning a reputation for incredible miked tone in the studio.
The craftsmanship of the F-512E is truly top-notch. From the scalloped X-bracing to the gorgeous nitrocellulose gloss finish, the attention to detail on the F-512E sets it apart. A genuine Indian rosewood bridge and bone nut and saddle provide wonderful tonal support. An eye-catching mother-of-pearl and abalone V-block inlay on the ebony fingerboard are added visual delights that make your playing experience all the more enjoyable. Gotoh SE700 open-gear tuners look classic and keep you in tune.
