The F-1512 is a definitely a superb looking and well-built guitar finished in a natural polyurethane gloss that really allows the beautiful rosewood back and sides to show off their lovely grain. To complete the design, you get an Indian rosewood bridge and bone saddle with ivory coloured plastic pins, tortoiseshell effect pickguard and the guitar comes with an excellent, lightweight hard case. The neck is mahogany with an Indian rosewood fretboard, small mother-of-pearl dots, 20 vintage sized frets and a bone nut leading up to a classic Guild headstock with 12 Die-cast closed gear tuners, six per side and the Chesterfield headstock logo, similar to that used on the wonderful 1960s Guilds.
The back sports a lovely inlay while the top has a three-part rosette with mother-of -pearl, ivory ABS and black bands giving the guitar a subtle, classy look.

Our F-1512E included the Fishman Sonitone pickup for a small upcharge verses the pickup-free F-1512 model.īoth F-1512's feature the same solid Indian rosewood back and sides, matched with a solid Sitka spruce top and scalloped x-bracing plus very attractive ivory ABS binding and purfling for a classic look. The Westerly F-1512 is part of the higher end 150 range and combines two of Guild's specialities, Jumbo guitars and 12-strings for a large body instrument available with and without a built in Fishman pre-amp.

After this move, the company flourished into the Guild we know today and this series is inspired by the success the move helped to generate. Guild's Westerly collection celebrates the company's 1967 move from their original Hoboken, New Jersey factory to the Rhode Island based factory in Westerly.
