What We Think

Weight: 7.6 lbs.

Condition: Used, Great - Minor scratching, pick & buckle rash

Guild has made a number of awesome guitars over the years and I've been fortunate to have been able to play a few of them, but this is the first time that I've had the pleasure of picking up the X-160 Rockabilly. I was instantly taken with its Tennesse Orange finish and flowing body contours, which combine to convey a sense of both classic design and free-spirited playfulness. Its pair of white DeArmond 2000 pickups deliver all of the snap and twang that you'd expect from a guitar with "rockabilly" in the title and the USA Bigsby tailpiece gives you even more expression in your playing. This X-160 is bad to the bone!
