The Guild D-40 Traditional embodies the characteristics that made the original D-40 one of Guild 's most popular and valued models. Guild uses a high quality solid Sitka top top and solid African mahogany bottom and sides. The D-40 Traditional's three-piece mahogany and walnut neck features an Indian rosewood fretboard and is connected to the body by an authentic dovetail joint. This classic dreadnought guitar features a tortoise pickguard, tortoise rosette and binding, genuine Guild mother-of-pearl peak and Chesterfield logo on the headstock, and nickel-plated tuning machines . A glossy nitrocellulose varnish gives this masterpiece an elegant finish and optimally brings out the beauty and resonance qualities of the first-class woods.
Each D-40 Traditional comes with a hand-signed, numbered Certificate of Authenticity and a Guild moisturized hardshell case. Available in Natural or with an Antique Burst top.
