The Guild M-40E Standard showcases the inspiring tones of solid spruce-topped mahogany within a remarkably comfortable, concert-bodied package. Optimized with the forward-shifted bracing of Adirondack spruce, the equalized balance of a Sitka spruce top, and the warm resonance of mahogany back and sides, the quality craftsmanship of the M-40E Standard affords players a confident, well-rounded voicing that will strum with impressive character and fingerpick with equally precise percussiveness.
A C-shape mahogany neck with an Indian rosewood fingerboard delightfully enhances the command of this 14-fretter, matched down at the body with an Indian rosewood bridge and held in check up top by Guild Deluxe Vintage open-gear tuning machines.
For stage play, an appointment of LR Baggs Element VTC onboard electronics instills accurate, dynamic performance when plugged into amps and PAs.
Charmingly polished with double-body binding, a tortoiseshell guard, that classic Guild Peak inlay at the headstock, and premier vintage gloss nitro lacquer finishing, this wonderfully wieldable M-40E Standard shines brightly as a genuine poster child for gorgeous-sounding, all-American-made guitars
