I can't find that older thread, so was she born in Hoboken or Westerly?
The weather would be perfect, but not what the government allows us...Still not the time to meet in a beergarden
Interesting. The label in mine explicitly says OOO. But these terms are foreign to Guild anyway, so it doesn't really matter. In any case, I hope you enjoy it, highwayman!!!
The Guild knowledge gathered at this site never ceases to amaze me, but lately that has just gone well beyond amazing! Thanks, SFIV!
Congrats on the new addition. As for size Guild didn't really specify one for these models and mine just says "slothead" on the label. The 14 fret model was called "orchestra" so I go with chazmo and say it's 000 whereas the orchestra is maybe the 0M equivalent.
Yes, he's talking about his F-312 which the few posts before explained.
Yes I meant the F312 of course. . I just mentioned the fact that it was a Hoboken label but was aware of the reason.
Hi Ralf, Thanks for claryfing this. This is of course a contradiction on the Guild side, but nothing dramatic.Guild wasn't really clear in the specs. They gave both descriptions Orchestra and OOO in one and the same spec sheet (here the hog SB example):
Now in the pricelists they called them "Orpheum® 000 SHS 12-String". So all consistent Guild...
And only 3 of 12 labels that I have seen had OOO written on the label.

Drool I’d really like to get Rosewood model 12 or14 fret ahh just make a 14 freter lolNext to the prototype the rarest of the rare is owned by our txbumper, he owns the only one made Rosewood Sunburst!
NGDx2 000-12 Fret Slothead Orpheum Heaven!
OK, I figured I would roll them both out at the same time to avoid two NGD posts. I was able to acquire the 12 string in mid January and as some of you know I recently was able to land the 6 string in the last week. Here is what we are looking at. 2014 Guild 000-12 Fret Slot Head 12 String...letstalkguild.com
The second place regarding rare Orpheums goes to our own Toni, she owns 1 of only 2 built Mahogany Natural top. The second of the two also lives in Germany but Toni's has the most beautiful mahogany wood used!
NGD - Orpheum 12-string OM Mahogany Natural
Well, the sun, finally, appeared for a bit and I was able to take a few pictures. This guitar is fabulous! Even though it is 'new', the sound and projection is amazing. It's the best 12-string I've ever played (now keep in mind, my total number of 12-strings probably equates to 20 or so...
Third place is the Mahogany Sunburst where 3 exist (mine and another one in Germany, the 3rd is in the US with musician Shane Alexander).
The mahogany wood on the back together with the sunburst gives a beatiful color on my one, here in a close-up shot:
