    I checked out a couple of F2512's at GC

    I have used mine now for a couple of gigs since I go it and it's working our really great. Sounds great through the PA (direct into mixer and then into BOSE L1 Model 2). I have changed out the strings several times and the neck is stable and the action is incredible!

    I juts purchased a new F-2512CE Deluxe and I think it's an excellent guitar for the money! And I mean excellent. I have a 1980 F-212XL and a 1990 JF30 and so I have something really great to compare them with. My 212Xl has mahogany back and sides and is warmer, but not louder...My JF30 is all...

    Anyone own a JF212XL 12 string?

    Anyone own a JF212XL 12 string?

    Sounds good Chasmo! Mine is definitely a solid wood, mahogany back/sides 17" (jumbo) model. When I ordered it, it was supposed to have a plain fingerboard with no inlay position markers, but when I go it it had them! Go figure! Of the three I own, it is my favorite of the two acoustics and like...

    Guild JF30-E

    So great to find this thread! I have a 1990 JF30 that I just love! I had helped a dear friend find and buy this guitar and when he suddenly passed away in 1993, his wife gave it to me. The BAH on the pickguard are his initials.
