Experience timeless acoustic sound with every strum.

The Guild D-340 Westerly Collection dreadnought acoustic guitar delivers the classic Guild acoustic tone that players have cherished for decades, now at an even more accessible price. Its dreadnought body style is perfect for those who seek a comfortable, full-sized acoustic with a bold, symphonic voice. Whether you're strumming along to your favorite tunes or crafting your own music, the D-340's solid spruce top construction offers a bright, balanced tone with long sustain, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of playing styles. The open pore natural satin finish enhances the resonance of the tonewoods, allowing every note to ring out clearly and powerfully.

Bright, Balanced Tone With Solid Spruce and Mahogany
The D-340 is built with a solid Sitka spruce top, known for its bright and articulate tone, which pairs beautifully with the mahogany back and sides to deliver a balanced sound with rich overtones. The combination of these tonewoods ensures that the guitar has a dynamic range suitable for both light fingerpicking and robust strumming. The Sitka spruce bracing provides structural support while enhancing the guitar's natural resonance, giving you a powerful and expressive sound that projects well in any setting.

Smooth Playability With a Comfortable Mahogany Neck
Designed with a smooth C-shaped mahogany neck, the D-340 offers exceptional playability that's comfortable for extended playing sessions. The satin finish on the neck allows your hand to glide effortlessly across the rosewood fingerboard, which features 5mm pearloid dot inlays for a classic look. With a 25.5" scale length and 20 medium frets, this guitar provides a responsive and enjoyable playing experience across the entire fingerboard. The dual-action truss rod and bone nut contribute to the guitar's stability, ensuring accurate tuning and consistent performance.

Vintage Aesthetics and Reliable Hardware
The D-340 is equipped with Guild's Vintage 16 open gear tuning machines, offering smooth and precise tuning adjustments. The rosewood bridge, paired with a compensated bone saddle, ensures excellent intonation and sustain. Aesthetically, the guitar features a black tortoise pickguard, black body binding, and a nickel Guild Peak headstock logo, all of which contribute to its timeless and elegant appearance.

Built for Musicians Who Demand Quality and Tone
Whether you're an experienced musician or just beginning your acoustic journey, the Guild D-340 is a guitar that will inspire you with its rich tone and comfortable playability. Its solid construction, premium materials, and thoughtful design make it a reliable instrument for any setting, from the stage to the studio to your living room.
