[NAMM] Guild Standard Series

The Series includes 12 guitars in total – six acoustics and an acoustic-electric cutaway version of each.

The Standard Series Cutaway models are all outfitted with an onboard 18-volt D-TAR Wave-Length pickup system. Each Standard Series guitar features a Sitka Spruce top with Red Spruce bracing. The guitars also offer a satin-lacquer finished neck; a slimmer neck profile; bone nut, saddle, and bridge pins; and a dual-action truss rod.

The D-40CE and D-50CE are classic Guild Dreadnoughts that feature solid mahogany and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, respectively.

With the F-30CE and F-30RCE, the Series offers two Standard Orchestra acoustic-electrics that feature a smaller body size, 1 ¾” bone nut and full scale, making them good for everything from tuned-down finger-style pieces to folk-style strumming. The F-30CE’s mahogany back and sides are designed to produce a strong and focused sound, while the F-30RCE’s rosewood back and sides are designed to produce a rich, complex and warm sound.

The Standard Series also now includes two Jumbo acoustic-electric cutaways. The F-212XLCE 12-string jumbo cutaway features solid mahogany back and sides for a balanced sound and a wide dynamic range, while the F-50CE boasts a unique arched laminated maple back.
