Outside of a little residual funk from a bridge repair, she is perfect. I owned one of these before and follishly traded it. Now I have this one. Church bells ringing when I play her. Neck angle is exceptional -- especially for a Guild of this vintage.IMG_2910.jpegIMG_2913.jpeg

Wow I love the vintage folkie look. im still looking for a 12 string. So aside from the appointments what are the main differences between the JF30 12 strings and the F412 and F512?

Mainly, the F412 has more bling - the Guild shield on the headstock, the fancy fret markers, maybe an abalone rosette. The backs are the same - braceless arched maple fine laminate. Some JF30-12s have ebony fretboards, but AFAIK most are rosewood. Not sure about the top bracing. They're both killer 12-strings. (The F512 has a solid rosewood back, with all the bling.)
