Guild F-1512 Natural Westerly 12-string Jumbo Acoustic Guitar

Descrizione

While you could try to imitate the full and lush sparkle of a real twelve-string model by experimenting with different tunings, there really is nothing like the real thing. Finished to a high standard, the twelve-string Guild Westerly Collection F-1512 acoustic guitar features a big jumbo-sized body, boosting the resonance and therefore the volume and resulting in far-reaching, shimmering tone. This stunner of a model has also been polished off with some deluxe detailing, from the natural finish of the soundbaord to the faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, black and ivory-coloured purfling and the mother-of-pearl inlay work of the soundhole rosette.

The Guild F-1512: It's All About the Tone

Numerous construction details and elements can affect the resonance of an acoustic guitar, and one of the most essential is the wood. Here, Guild has selected the classic combination of a solid spruce soundboard and solid rosewood back and sides. This doesn't just complete a satisfying contrasting look, but delivers the perfect blend of clarity and warmth, meaning that this Jumbo twelve-string is astoundingly versatile. When it comes to the playability, extra room to move is afforded by the wider 48 millimetre nut, while the mahogany neck has been finished with a C-profile carve so you're assured of a comfy feel all the way up the fretboard.

The Guild Westerly Collection

Guild have been building high-quality instruments since 1953, and their acoustic guitars hark back to earlier, vintage models. Each of the steel-string guitars in the Westerly series have been built using solid woods before being equipped with a number of refined and more luxurious details. The headstock of every model is then adorned with the traditional pearloid inlay Guild emblem and the top is finished with a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard. The Westerly series offers expensive acoustic sound at a surprisingly affordable price.
