This guitar is an instant classic. The 1967 Guild F-312 was built towards the end of their production run with Brazilian Rosewood, but nonetheless has a fantastically straight-grained set here that’d put Martin’s Brazilian of the time to shame. Spruce on top, plus a slick, smooth setup, makes for the perfect 12 string machine! Our repair staff has gone over this one tuner to tail and has buttoned it up with a freshly clean bill of health.

Guild Guitars were one of the first companies to put 12-strings on the map in the 1960s, singlehandedly establishing the industry standard for double-course guitars. The huge, powerful sound that we associate with 12-strings? Guild’s handiwork. This 1983 D-80-12 is an excellent example of their hallmark voice with East Indian Rosewood back and sides and a Spruce top. Built like a brick house, this 12-string is equally suited to delicate fingerstyle and aggressive flatpicking, with miles of sustain and an L.R. Baggs Anthem pickup for unrivalled clarity when amplified. This particular 12-string was custom built by the then-Master Luthier of Guild Guitars before Jerre Haskew, the former president of the company who hired Kim Walker to save it and pave the way for his own work, acquired the instrument–and we trust Jerre when he tells us, “This is the finest production 12-string guitar I’ve ever seen, heard or played regardless of brand.” If you’re interested in the classic 12-string sound in an iconic package with smooth action and a sweet, fiery sunburst finish, look no further than this Guild D-80-12.

In 1977, Guild made a D55NT that was much like any other. It was well made, durable, and ready for years of playing. But unlike many of its brethren, this one was destined to end up in the hands of an incredible artist and performer. This guitar belonged to the one and only David Wilcox, a local Ashevillian and a supreme songwriter. In his hands, this guitar shone, but eventually the two parted ways and now the Guild has made its way back to our shop in the course of its search for a new home. Recently set up and in fine playing shape, you’ll be hard pressed to find a guitar with a better story to it than this one. The classic pairing of Indian Rosewood and Sitka Spruce will have you singing right along with it. It would make the perfect stage guitar or even collector piece, depending on what you are looking to accomplish. Come check it out and see what you think!
