The Guild P-240 Memoir is a diminutive Parlour Guitar, designed to be perfect for fingerpicking and platpicking. Vintage cues abound in the aesthetic of this guitar, from the classic logo on the slotted headstock, to the rectangular bridge and simple rosette. A solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides provide suitably vintage tone, while the 12th fret body join results in a more mellow sound.

Guild P-240 Memoir Parlour Guitar

Here to help you write your own story - the P-240 Memoir. This small-bodied parlour guitar is built with a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides with a sleek, gloss finish and a 12 fret-to-body neck. Compact but powerful, the P-240’s tone is clear and bright–perfect for finger and flatpicking. The mother of pearl rosette, vintage-inspired Guild Script Logo and slotted headstock pay homage to the classic styling of instruments from the 1920s. The P-240’s sound is instantly familiar and, despite its small size, full and precise - almost as if its tone has been perfected over years of fireside strumming and family jamming.
