"This is an incredible guitar, the best I ever owned."

Quality:
The binding on the sides of the neck seem to loosen after a few years. Might need a better glue in this area. The rest of the guitar is great.

Value:
Good value when compared to other top of the line guitars suchs as Gibson, Martin, Taylor, etc.

Desirability:
A beautiful instrument.

Sound:
Outstanding.

Support:
Never really needed anything for this instrument, but when I talked with the Guild factory, the people were nice and helpful.

Overall:
I had my F512 for 25 years and just love it. It has the best action I've ever seen and the sound in just incredible.
