Seagull

A great sounding twelve-string that will stay in tune!

The Seagull Coastline Series S12 is a cedar top dreadnought guitar with a rich, full sound that only a quality 12-string guitar can produce. With a warm mid-range tone and of course, the award winning craftsmanship and value Seagull is known for, the S12 Dreadnought features an ultra thin semi-gloss finish, a select pressure tested solid cedar top, and eco-friendly wild cherry back and sides.

12-string guitars must endure a great deal of added stress on the neck. The Seagull neck design offers superior stability, even on 12-string guitars tuned to concert pitch. The straight string pull of the tapered Seagull headstock is an especially big advantage when it comes to tuning a 12-string guitar and keeping it in tune.

Guitars in the Seagull Coastline series are among the world's outstanding values in acoustic guitars. The back and sides of Coastline series guitars are crafted from a 3-layer lamination of wild cherry wood. With a sound that lands somewhere between the mellow tone of a mahogany guitar and the bright sound of maple, wild cherry has proven itself to be an excellent tone wood. Grown locally, wild cherry is also an ecologically friendly choice. Seagull Coastline series guitars feature very smooth necks made from Silver Leaf Maple.

My favorite guitar!

| Review By: Scott Greene | 6 months, 4 weeks ago

0 people out of 0 found this review helpful

Features:

I would rate it an 11 if the scale went that high.

 

I can't say enough about this guitar!!!!

Quality:

The quality that Seagull puts into their guitars is exceptional.  I will eventually get a new 6 string and the first guitar that I will look at will be a Seagull.  I haven't gotten the new 6 string yet because I'm afraid I'll spend allthat money and still end up going back to my 12 string.

Value:
Overall:

I have played guitar for about 10 years and have had several guitars, but this one is, by far, my favorite!

It's showing some wear now, after 9 years, but it is a workhorse.  I play every week in church and several times a week for fun and I'm never disapointed.  I got it set up right after my purchase and after that I've never had one thing done to it.  I use D'Addario 80/20s or Phosphor Bronze lights on it and it stays in tune as good as any 6 string I've ever played, which is rare for a 12 string.

 

The cedar top is soft and is succeptable to dings and nicks, but with care it will last a very long time.

But, this cedar top is why the sound is so great out of this guitar.  Spruce couldn't top that cedar.

Am I Dreaming?

| Review By: Bob of the North | 7 months, 3 weeks ago

Features:

Having heard how fantastic John Butler sounds on a 12-String, I decided to take the plunge. Because I own a Seagull Maritime 6-String, I knew what to expect when I recently purchased the Coastline S12.  Excellence.  I was not disappointed.  After only 2 days of minor string tuning adjustments it has stayed in tune for 2 weeks now (My Seagull 6-String also rarely needs tuning).  The fine woods, the craftsmanship, and the overall look and feel of this instrument is astounding. I never use picks, just thumbnail and finger work and I can get amazing sounds out of this thing.  Very Happy.

One of the best

| Review By: Frank D Simpson | 8 months, 1 week ago

2 people out of 2 found this review helpful

Features:

I have owned many 12 strings over 40+ years including a few that cost way more than this one. There is only one other that I liked as well and it cost 6 times what this one costs. Everyone who has played it gives me the same review as my review within the first minute of playing it. It starts with "WOW" this plays very easily, the action is outstanding, the tone is so balanced, the highs don't overpower the mids and lows, it sounds great and everyone is able and willing to play songs that aren't "12 string songs".  I have read many reviews and they all seem to have the same statements. Unless you own one, you will not be aware or appreciate how well it stays in tune. Every once in a while top quality is available for far less than top price. I'm not selling my Seagull S 12.

Quality:

Once it is set up, you're done.  It probably needs new strings but it sounds so good I can't bring myself to change them.

Value:

When I open the hardshell case and take it out, I always take a wiff at the sound hole, the wild cherry is always wonderful.

Overall:

I have owned probably 100 guitars in my life. This one is one of the very best.

this guitar is simply amazing-- I haven't played many martins or gibsons or the like but with this guitar I'm not even interested in looking for another twelve string- ever.  It just sounds perfect, barely ever needs to be tuned, and plays smoother than any of my six strings-- you can't ask for a nicer guitar-- my advice is if you're looking and can afford, definitely buy this-- no way you'll be dissappointed

Well on 2007 I saw this guitar at a local store, I strummed a open G chord and I knew I wanted it, there was a lady nearby looking to buy her first guitar and when she heard the guitar she was so impressed with the sound that thought I had something to do with it and started asking me all sorts of questions about guitars luckily I was able to answer most... Next month my then fiancee now wife got it for me as a Christmas present, that nearly brought tears to my eyes, I may not play it as much as I should but every time I do I am pleased and it rarely goes out of tune, I'm forever thankful with my wife for this!. I can't think of another 12-string sounding better.
