Guild F-2512E Maple and left-handed F-2512E Maple LH jumbo 12-string acoustic guitars feature solid Sitka spruce tops, maple sides, arched maple backs, and C-shape mahogany necks. Their rounded jumbo bodies and arched backs provide the big sound and extraordinary projection that Guild guitars have been famous for since the 1950s, while their tortoiseshell pickguards, mother-of-pearl rosettes, ivory binding, and other elegant appointments contribute to their beauty. Integrated Fishman-designed GT-1 pickup systems faithfully reproduce their acoustic sound when they are amplified.
