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.

The Guild USA series represents the spearhead of Guild's series produced guitars. Each instrument is hand-built in the Californian workshop and is subject to strict quality controls .
In July 2014, Guild began construction on a new, state-of-the-art facility in Southern California . The manufacturing equipment was shipped from the previous factory in New Hartford and brought into the new production facility. Ren Ferguson, a legendary luthier, has been named vice president of production and research and development. Ren Ferguson's experience with Guild and his many years of guitar building experience made him the perfect visionary to set up and design the new Guild factory. The instruments of the Guild USA series are now manufactured in this factory.
Guild is ushering in a new era of USA production . The interpretation of classic Guild designs through an innovative approach and the use of modern technologies ensures that these guitars feel and sound better than ever and are sure to be enjoyed by any serious guitarist.
