Guild has been building dreadnought acoustic
guitars since 1963, and these instruments are revered for their value, reliability, tone,
responsiveness, outstanding projection and sustain. This full-bodied, high-volume body
style was developed with an emphasis on string-to-string balance, so that treble, mid and
bass registers project evenly. The result is one of the most musically versatile
dreadnoughts anywhere.
All of Guild's dreadnoughts are 15-3/4" wide and feature all solid woods. All employ
Guild’s time-proven "X" bracing pattern. Guild's hand-shaped dreadnought necks measure
1-11/16" width at the nut with a 25-5/8" scale length and are equipped with Grover
Rotomatic® tuners. In addition, All Guild guitars are accompanied by a deluxe archtop
case.
Guild’s flagship model, the D55 was first introduced in 1968 as a special order item
only, but the response was so strong that within a few years it was added to the line as a
regular production model. The D55 is prized by players worldwide—from John Renbourn to the
Barenaked Ladies. This model features a Spruce top, Rosewood back and sides, a three-piece
Mahogany neck, Ebony bridge and fretboard with Mother-of-Pearl and Abalone block position
inlays, and G-shield logo.
