Played by a host of seminal artists from Tom Petty to David Gilmour and Stevie Ray Vaughan, the new Guild F-512 is a perfect recreation of the original ‘60s legend. Beautifully made in California, USA, the F-512 is a tour-de-force, boasting a AAA-Grade Sitka Spruce soundboard, braced with Adirondack Spruce for a balance of shimmer and attack. Solid Indian Rosewood back and sides effortlessly combine tonal richness and projection, while everything is finished in a perfect nitrocellulose lacquer coat. There’s always a sense of awe when these arrive in the shop from California, and they don’t tend to stick around for long when they do!

Supplied in a humidified wood case, sumptuously lined in green felt, this stunning instrument is in stock at Merchant City Music, and ready to go. Every guitar we sell is rigorously checked and professionally set up before it goes out the door, for your peace of mind. We ship fast and secure to the UK and Europe.

Guild F-512 Rosewood Natural

The F-512 Rosewood is back and better than ever. Formerly the F-512, this USA-made jumbo has been a staple of the Guild line since the late 1960’s. and features a tight grained solid Sitka spruce top with Indian Rosewood back and sides. Created on the same arch press that’s been a part of Guild manufacturing since 1985, the F512 provides shimmering highs, singing mids and a warm, focused bass response that truly sets it apart. Braced with delicate, scalloped Adirondack spruce, this model produces the legendary sound that players have come to expect from a Guild 12-string.

Elegant cosmetic appointments include the classic Guild “V-block” inlays, gold Gotoh hardware, and a beautiful Nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Exceptional build quality and premium specifications make it a worthy heir to the historic Guild 12-string legacy.
