Gold Tone F-12 12-String F-Style Mando-Guitar

Gold Tone F-12: 12-String F-Style Mando-Guitar with Pickup and Case

The Gold Tone F-12 12-String F-Style Mando-Guitar redefines hybrid stringed instruments by merging the richness of a 12-string guitar with the compact body and look of a mandolin. Handcrafted with a solid spruce top and maple back and sides, the F-12 combines precision craftsmanship and tonal balance for both acoustic and amplified performance. Its F-style mandola body enhances air resonance, providing a fuller low end and superior projection that sets it apart from traditional 12-string designs.

Sonically, the F-12 offers a unique tonal palette—its 12 strings produce shimmering, chorus-like tones with clear articulation and depth. The solid spruce top delivers sparkling highs and rich sustain, while the maple construction maintains tight, focused bass response. The bridge-mounted transducer pickup ensures natural sound reproduction on stage or in the studio, making the F-12 an ideal choice for both live performers and recording artists.

Designed for guitarists, singer-songwriters, and multi-instrumentalists, the F-12 offers mandolin-inspired textures without the need for alternate tunings. The 15" scale length provides comfortable string tension and playability, while the Zero Glide nut and radiused rosewood fingerboard support effortless chord transitions and precision fingering. Whether used for folk, rock, country, or experimental compositions, this instrument invites endless creativity.
