OUSTANDING DESIGN, DETAILS, AND TONE IN A ROBUST DREADNOUGHT
The Guild D-140 dreadnought offers musicians a traditional acoustic sound and balanced voicing thanks to its full-bodied and strong tone. The D-140 has a solid African mahogany back and sides, a solid Sitka spruce top, a bone nut and saddle, and a mother-of-pearl rosette. Additionally, this model includes Guild’s new premium acoustic gig bag, a 134″ nut width on a vintage-styled Guild neck, the classic Chesterfield headstock logo reminiscent of Guilds from the 1960s, and a period-appropriate tortoiseshell pickguard.
Following Guild’s decision to move its design and construction headquarters from New Jersey to a Rhode Island furniture factory, the Westerly series of acoustic guitars represents the start of the company’s second chapter. This more spacious, renovated area provided a new focus and attention to enhancing their already superb craftsmanship. The D-140, which features flawless construction details and elegant trimmings with an emphasis on enhanced tone and longevity, continues this legacy. The Guild D-140’s tone and resonance are improved by a real rosewood bridge, real bone nut, and real bone saddle. Additionally, scalloped X-bracing made of spruce enhances resonance and sustain while also ensuring long-term durability.
