Very, very good condition with a beautiful sound.
This guitar is just not working out for what I bought it for.
Looks good on the wall, but needs to be played.
So, I'm going to pass it on to someone else.
Not making any money on it, selling for what I got into it!
These sell for much more on Reverb!

AAA Sitka spruce top with antique burst finish,
Solid Indian Rosewood back and sides.
Ebony fretboard with rosewood bridge.
Grover gold tuners.
Bone nut, saddle and pins.
Premium specs and exceptional playability for a 12 string.
There is a 9-volt pickup installed, but I don't know the brand.
Some checking in the Nitro, but hard to see.
Great neck angle.
Hardly any fret wear.
Arm rest was installed before I got it. Can be removed fairly easily if desired.
I found it to be comfortable.
There are a couple of extra truss rod screw holes in the face plate above the truss rod cover which you can see in the pics.
Don't know why they are there and previous owners don't know why they are there either!
They don't effect anything, but for the sake of disclosure, I will point them out.
It's a minor cosmetic issue.
Comes with original Guild case.

$2000 (You pay for shipping). this is a great price!
Would trade for Guild vintage dread or Martin Dread!
PM me if interested or need more info.

This guitar has a beautiful voice.
Just too big for me!
This is a good chance to get one of the best Guild 12's made.
Bottom line is $2000 (you pay shipping), 2K is what I got into it.
Got it from Rich Peterson, so you know it's a quality Guild!
They sell for much more.

Beautiful Guitar and that Corona Burst is so much like my Westerly1980 G312SB. The Amber tone seems identical and there's a bit more dark coverage but, it's the closest I've seen. They buyer will certainly have a nice guitar.

I'm no expert but let me tell you, I've played three Corona Guilds in the past year, bought one, (the other two were not for sale otherwise I would have bought one of the two).

Any misgivings about that factory are unfounded.

You mean to tell me this hasn't sold yet? At $2,000? That's a killer deal! If I didn't have one, I'd definitely grab this one!
