My first post on Lets Talk Guild...

I'd love to find a good F512 Sunburst from the 70's or 80's in good condition and having low action and no major structural issues.
What could I expect to pay for one of these beauties?
John.

I would think $1,500.00-$1,600.00 USD would buy one. I have an '81 that I wouldn't let go for less than that, if I'd let go of it at all. Mine is a natural top, the sunbursts are more rare, you might have to pay a bit more for one of those. Either way, it'll have a full, rich sound with piano-like sustain, unlike any other brand of 12 string. Happy hunting! 8)
