Jumbo acoustic-electric with Sitka spruce top, flamed maple back and sides and Fishman pickup.
The Guild F-250E Deluxe Westerly is a modern jumbo acoustic-electric guitar with designs rooted in Guild’s long heritage as a leader in big-bodied acoustics since the 1960s. The tonewood pairing of Sitka spruce with flamed maple back and sides is not only eye-catching, but, combined with Guild’s signature arched back design, allows for enhanced volume and projection, long sustain, and a lush, full sound. Performers have long revered maple for its ability to sing over a crowded room and resist the feedback problems of boomier, bassier tonewoods.
Other premium features on the Guild F-250E Deluxe include scalloped Sitka spruce bracing, bone nut and saddle, an elegant white body and fingerboard binding, Guild Vintage 18 tuners with 18:1 gear ratio, and mother-of-pearl rosette and Guild headstock "Peak” inlay. The body has a high gloss finish that brings to life the flame on the back and sides, and the neck is satin finished for a fast and smooth playing feel. Additionally, this tone cannon comes alive in amplified settings with a Fishman GT-1 pickup system with soundhole mounted volume and tone control.
