Old-school slope shoulder dread built to inspire.
Guild's DS-240 Memoir is a retro-looking slope shoulder dreadnought built with a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides with a sleek, gloss finish. The vintage-inspired mother-of-pearl rosette and Guild Script Logo pay homage to the classic styling of instruments from the 1920s. The DS-240 Memoir's sound is instantly warm, clear and inviting—almost as if its tone has been perfected over years of fireside strumming and family music-making.
