Congrats!!! I love mine! I believe you'll be happy with your purchase!
Approximately 4 3/8 inch, at the end pin.
Congrats on this purchase!
I've seen specs on the F-30R ranging
Are you referring to Oxnard Guild ?The F-30 and F-30R have a lot of history and apparently are well made with very good tone characteristics. Why did Guild discontinue this classic size popular model, and also, then not replace it except with the much more expensive Orpheum Series? OM and 000 are very popular with just about all guitar makers. Martin has been extremely successful with their low end and middle market products, selling more guitars than any other maker.
I was hoping for 4 3/8" at the wide section of the lower bout, which would make it more like almost 4 1/2 at the end pin. But, the tone is what really matters..... Thanks geoguy for the data.
I've seen specs on the F-30R ranging, scale length under and over 25', and nut width 1 3/4" and 1 11/16", and varying body depth too.
From Neal, (Just to help you along)
One thing that amazes me about the Standard Series is the quality of the wood that was used. This is my third one, and all three have had the most beautiful, heavily-silked tops on them. Other high-end touches include the attractive backstripe on this F-30R. It really makes the rosewood on either side of it pop. Most other makers putting out a "budget-friendly" version of their more expensive models do not include a backstripe, nor do they inlay MOP on the headstock. Add to that red spruce bracing, bone nut, saddle and bridge pins on this F-30R, and wow, there is just a whole lot of value in this guitar.
