According to a fact sheet from Christie's auction house "a 1972 Guild F112 acoustic 12-string guitar (has been) used by Bob Marley on the 'Kaya' album, 1978, Serial No. 64026... According to the accompanying documents, Marley asked Junior Marvin if he could use this guitar during the recording of the 'Kaya' album at Island Studios and played it specifically on 'Is This Love?' and 'Time Will Tell.' Aston "Family Man" Barrett also recalls Marley using this guitar during these sessions. According to Marvin, this was the only 12-string acoustic that Marley used in his recordings, although he certainly owned a Hohner 12-string that he used at home for composing purposes around the time of the 'Survival' album in 1979".
