FIND BEAUTIFUL TONE AND DESIGN IN THIS ORCHESTRA-SIZED GUILD
The Guild OM-140CE is a mid-sized orchestra-shaped acoustic guitar that has a pleasant, balanced tone and works well for both fingerpicking and strumming. The OM-140CE has a solid Sitka spruce top, solid African mahogany back and sides, and a graceful cutaway for access to upper frets, making it the ideal choice for the flexible performer. For gigs and live performances, this guitar receives the ideal amplified boost from the secret Guild/Fishman AP1 with Sonicore pickup. A mother-of-pearl rosette and a bone nut and saddle are further quality elements. Additionally, this model features Guild’s new premium acoustic gig bag, a 134″ nut width on a vintage-styled Guild neck, the iconic Chesterfield headstock emblem 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 Guild OM-140CE, which features flawless construction details and elegant trimmings with an emphasis on enhanced tone and longevity, continues this legacy. The Guild OM-140CE’s tone and resonance are improved by a real rosewood bridge, a real bone nut, and a real bone saddle. Additionally, scalloped X-bracing made of spruce enhances resonance and sustain while also ensuring long-term durability.
