General

The Guild D-1212 Natural Westerly is an impressive 12-string dreadnought guitar that features an all-solid African mahogany build to guarantee a rich, mile-wide acoustic sound and a long, traditional sustain. Meanwhile, the looks of this charming guitar are based on vintage Guild guitars from the sixties, as evidenced by the tortoiseshell pickguard and the iconic Chesterfield logo on the headstock. The whole thing even comes coated in a glossy lacquer for that extra bit of elegant flair and, as a welcome bonus, Guild throw in one of their Premium Acoustic gig bags.
