• Bracing: Scalloped Adirondack spruce bracing enhances the guitar's projection and volume, allowing it to sing with a full, resonant voice.

Sound & Playability:

• Action: The guitar has been professionally inspected and set up by a luthier, resulting in smooth, low action for easy playability, even for complex chords high on the neck.
• Intonation: Intonation is spot-on, and the frets are smooth and polished.
• Sustain: This guitar boasts incredible sustain, with notes ringing out for well over 15 seconds. 

Condition:

This vintage instrument shows signs of its age and history. The guitar needed some work upon acquisition, including a neck reset and bridge reset.

There are various nicks, chips, dents, dings, scratches, and some mild finish wear throughout, which add to its authentic vintage charm and beautiful patina. 

Includes the original hardshell case, which shows some wear and tear, and a portion of the back clasp is missing. However, the case remains sturdy and fulfills its protective function well. 

This 1975 Guild F5-12 is a rare and exceptional 12-string acoustic guitar, offering a rich history, premium craftsmanship, and outstanding tonal qualities that will inspire any player.
