Product no: 9000-0090-5652 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Combining lush twelve-string sound with the big projection of a jumbo body, the Guild F-512E electro-acoustic breathes tonal warmth as well as plenty of unplugged volume. Bearing the very best that Guild has to offer, this guitar has an all-solid build including a solid Sitka spruce soundboard, a solid rosewood back and solid rosewood sides. Inside, scalloped Adirondack spruce bracing enhances the natural timbre of this all-solid wood combo with unparalleled clarity and a powerful mid-range presence that could be compared to that of a harp. This broad and full sound is captured in detail by the integrated LR Baggs Anthem preamp system which combines a piezo pickup and microphone to near-flawless effect. Adjust the balance between the mic and pickup and tweak the tone and volume to shape the amplified sound and engage the phase control to filter out any of the frequencies that might be in danger of causing dreaded feedback.

Powerful Design

The Guild F-512E has been given a mighty look to match the mighty sound. The soundboard has been coated in an Antique Sunburst lacquer to set off the dark rosewood back, sides and fretboard, while a set of V-block abalone and mother-of-pearl position markers and a dark nitrocellulose scratchplate provide elegant finishing touches. Since an instrument of this calibre only deserves the best, Guild includes a Premium Humidified Wood Case with a built-in humidifier so you can keep this supreme model in full health for decades to come.
