Guild D-240E Westerly Archback Limited Flamed Mahogany
Guild D240E Flamed Mahogany is a classic dreadnought acoustic guitar, a body shape which has been around for nearly 100 years. Designed for big projection, Guild have bolstered this existing dreadnought quality by adding a slight arch to the back of the guitar. This features both augments the dreadnought's natural volume-pushing characteristics, and makes the instrument lighter, with the archback removing the need for back bracing. The D-240E Limited's open-pore matt finish further enhances the body's natural resonance, while also providing a pleasingly paired-back aesthetic which allows the natural wood grain to speak for itself. The all-important solid wood soundboard is made from Sitka spruce, a tried and tested material for this application, which works perfectly with the mahogany back and sides. Bone nut and saddle ensure that the high quality D'Addario strings transfer all their resonance directly onto the soundboard. In terms of feel, the Slim C neck is comfortable to hold, while the open-gear tuners are solid and accurate.
A great guitar, which combines solid core features with a unique and stunning back and sides. We don't anticipate it'll stick around very long!
