Description
What makes this guitar special? This is a simple but great-playing Guild with modest appointments and a big voice. The highlight of this guitar is its rich and impressive midrange that fits perfectly with its classic dreadnought body. The low end is present, but not overwhelming or bellowing, while the high end remains consistently crisp and full of chime. The quick attack and mid-high volume ceiling makes this an ideal candidate for flatpickers and singer songwriters who need good dynamic response from their instrument. The neck is very easy to play, the appointments are simple but stylish, and the body remains very clean for a guitar of its age.
Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall. It does possess various nicks, dents, dings, scuffs, and scratches, but most are in the back and others are marginally noticeable, leaving it clean and still looking fantastic. The frets show very little wear and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is comfortable and the truss rod is functioning.
Body: Dreadnought body with a bound solid Sitka spruce top and bound mahogany back and sides. Three-ring rosette with a vintage herringbone middle ring. Tortoiseshell pickguard. Rosewood bridge with an uncompensated saddle and white bridge pins with black dots.
Neck: Medium round C shape mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard with white dot inlays. Gold Grover tuning machines. 1 11/16” nut width. 25.5” scale.
Weight: 4 lbs 4.8 oz
Playability/Sound: The neck profile on this guitar is very easy to play and is similar feeling to many other modern guitars, making it extremely easy to transition into. The overall tone centers around a robust midrange that extends into a present but not bellowing low end and crisp top end with excellent chime. It has a surprising volume ceiling and quick attack, making it excellent for aggressive flatpickers.
Case: Includes original hardshell case.
