Sound Pure's Take
Condition Used, Very Good
Between the titanic names of Gibson and Martin, we find that Guild is too often overlooked. A finer traditional, true American instrument you will not find--prime example right here, folks! A warm, forward, tight rhythm machine suitable for its namesake, this D-40 is as dependable an axe as you will ever find, for the money or otherwise. Trust us, the slogan on the label is the truth: "Made to be Played!"
From Other (Miscellanous Used/Vintage/Consign)
Guild Traditional Series instruments represent more than half a century of fine US craftsmanship.
Guild has been a premier name in acoustic guitars since 1953, and our Traditional Series instruments carry on that legacy with premium specifications, exceptional build quality, and the balanced, articulate sound that has become Guild's signature.
Guild Traditional Series models feature red spruce bracing, bone nuts, saddles, and bridge pins; dovetail neck joints and pure nitrocellulose lacquer finishes. Experience the tradition of great Guild tone in these exceptional instruments.
