Beautiful tone complemented by gorgeous abalone, ABS and mother-of-pearl appointments.
Guild's jumbo-bodied F-55E acoustic-electric (formerly F-50R) produces an extraordinary amount of volume and warmth, matching a tight-grained solid Sitka spruce top with solid Indian rosewood back and sides for extraordinary separation and clarity. Its strong, focused bass response, sweet, singing mids, and crisp highs give it a distinctive voice that sets this guitar apart from all others.
The F-55E boasts elegant cosmetic appointments include the classic Guild “V-block” inlays, gold Gotoh hardware, and a beautiful nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Exceptional build quality and premium specifications make it a worthy heir to the historic Guild jumbo legacy.
Available in Natural or Antique Sunburst finish, the F-55E features L.R. Baggs award-winning Anthem electronics, with a proprietary condenser microphone placed just under the bridge plate, great feedback resistance and soundhole-mounted controls.
Case sold separately.
