All-solid tonewood combination with tortoiseshell appointments and extraordinary Antique Sunburst finish.
The Guild F-40 Traditional Jumbo acoustic guitar embodies the features that make jumbo-sized acoustics some of Guild’s most beloved and revered models. Using a high-grade solid Sitka spruce top and solid African mahogany back and sides, Guild added scalloped Adirondack braces for power, nuance and responsiveness. The F-40 Traditional’s three-piece mahogany and walnut neck is topped with an Indian rosewood fingerboard and is joined to the body with an authentic dovetail joint. This classic jumbo is handsomely appointed with a tortoiseshell pickguard, rosette, and binding, a genuine mother-of-pearl Guild peak and chesterfield logo inlaid on the headstock, and nickel-plated open gear tuners. A lustrous nitrocellulose lacquer provides an elegant finish to this masterpiece, optimizing the beauty and resonant qualities of its premium woods.
Each F-40 Traditional includes a hand-signed, numbered certificate of authenticity, and ships with a Guild humidified hardshell case. This F-40 Traditional features an Antique Sunburst top and is proudly made in the USA.
