Everybody wants to play this guitar!!!

Tom and the rest of your associates involved in my purchase were excellent! My new Guild 12 string lacked electronics. The LR Baggs Anthem was recommended and your technicians installed it to my specifications. A new set of GHS strings was also installed and it sounds amazing! I also ordered a SKB case and requested that the guitar be shipped in the case and not separately.… read more Again, it was shipped per my request. I received shipment on Friday, Feb 18 and took it to a local open mic on the following Tuesday. EVERYONE fell in love with it and just had to play it. I have had it for about 4 months now and it just sings! Thank you, Sweetwater for once again demonstrating why you are the best!

Easy to Play, with Wonderful tone

I am just getting back into guitars after a long hiatus. I had played many 12 strings before and remembered them as tempermental and hard to play, but loved the sound. The Guild F-1512 is not that way at all. It is easy to tune and holds tune well, but better than that, it plays like a dream. The action on this guitar is beautiful from one end of the neck to the other, and I… read more have found it as easy to play as my Taylor 6-string. What really knocked me out is the beautiful tone it has. It is smooth across the entire band with excellent, balanced sound through the bass, midrange and treble. I'm sure this is due to the rosewood back and sides as well as the jumbo size. This is a big guitar, but it is surprisingly easy to handle, even for a small guy like me. This guitar is beautiful, and looks, sounds, and plays like a very high dollar 12 string. It is quickly becoming my favorite acoustic to play, due to the richness of the sound alone. Lot of thanks to my Sales Engineer Ryan McKowen, who helped me through the process of choosing the right 12 string. He also encouraged me to have Sweetwater Plek it and put a set up on it. Well worth the money, because this guitar is one I will keep and cherish! I can't imagine ever dealing with anyone but Ryan and Sweetwater for any of my music needs.

Guild Has That Chimey 12-String Sound!

This is a beutiful guitar and compares well with models costing considerably more. Well-crafted and built with care, it is very attractive as well. The 12-string sound is unmistakable for playing all of my favorite classic Beatles, Byrds, Zepplin and Nancy Wilson (Heart) songs. Could not be more pleased!
