Guild F-412 Jumbo Acoustic Guitar (with Case, 12-String)
Come through loud and clear with this Guild 12-string acoustic. It's true to the original 1960s model from the gold hardware to the G-shield headstock logo.

"Guild F412 with D-Tar"
I own several other acoustic and electric 12 strings, but none have the commanding, gorgeous, full sound that this beautiful Guild maple jumbo produces. The low end, the crisp single note clarity, are what I've been wanting to hear for years. The construction on mine is flawless; and it sounds great plugged in with the D-Tar system. The neck, while bigger than some, becomes comfortable with a little practice; and believe me; you will want to practice after hearing it.
The only contact I have had with the manufacturer was a question about the truss rod, which was answered promptly, but with incorrect information. They informed me that it had two truss rods (which used to be the case with this model,) but mine only has one, with two graphite rods on either side. This change was made several years ago, and is the current standard arrangement for this model.
