Guild D-240E Dreadnought - Westerly Collection

Guild's new 240 model editions to their Westerly series are great quality at affordable prices.

This is in their classic dreadnought design, and has a great no-nonsense solid feel. Comes with a built-in pickup with discrete soundhole controls and a deluxe gigbag, so it is ready for the stage.

The subtly contoured arched mahogany back feels smooth and easy to hold, with the matt finish throughout and a traditional style setup.

Built with a solid spruce top, mahogany sides, and arched mahogany back, the full-bodied and powerful tone of this Guild dreadnought provides guitarists with a classic acoustic sound and balanced voicing. Guild’s signature arched back design allows for great volume and projection, long sustain, and a lush, full sound. The D-240E features Guild’s AP-1 pickup, an Indian rosewood fingerboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, pearloid rosette, period-correct tortoiseshell pickguard, and a matte polyurethane finish. This model also includes Guild’s new lightweight deluxe gig bag.
