Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Guild’s D-240E is a dreadnought acoustic-electric with a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany sides, and an arched mahogany back. The arched-back design is credited with strong volume and projection, long sustain, and a full sound with balanced voicing. A pau ferro fingerboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, scalloped X bracing, and Guild/Fishman electronics with onboard volume and tone controls give it a practical acoustic-electric feature set. Confirm the intended handedness before ordering.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic-electric setups that need onboard Guild/Fishman volume and tone controls.
