Archback Dreadnought from Guild's Westerly Series
Guild's iconic arched back makes its return in the Westerly D-240E
dreadnought acoustic-electric. The purpose of this trademark feature is
twofold: principally, it reduces weight and increases live projection.
But it also pays tribute to some of Guild's popular models, such as the
D-25 and F-30. The result is a great-playing, easy-traveling guitar with
Guild's unmistakable look. The Westerly D-240E harks back to Guild's
golden-era flat tops with some exciting vintage specs, including a body
made from premium woods, a classic Guild C-shaped neck, and a retro red
tortoiseshell pickguard. The D-240E includes the AP-1 pickup for a clean
sound that plugs straight into a PA.

- Engineered for a comfortable playing experience
Guild Acoustics: a heritage built on great woods and features
Guild's heritage as one of America's premier early guitar makers is
acknowledged in the D-240E. Solid Sitka spruce and mahogany meet in a
traditional dreadnought body with an arched back for a big sound and
great playing experience. A real bone nut and saddle deliver golden-era
sustain and clarity. And a 1960s red tortoiseshell pickguard gives this
guitar a look that was made to be seen.
Guild AP-1 pickup captures this Westerly's natural acoustic voice
The Westerly series' AP-1 piezo pickup is one of the better options
Sweetwater has seen in this price range. The sound is full and dynamic
onstage, and it pairs great with a microphone for recording parts at
home or in the studio. Volume and tone controls are mounted directly in
the soundhole for easy access, and for a look that won't detract from
your guitar's natural beauty.
Engineered for a comfortable playing experience
The D-240E's clean playability will help channel all your creative
ideas into beautiful music. Seasoned players will notice right away the
D-240E's slinky string action all along the 25.5" scale length C-shaped
neck. The 1-11/16" nut width spaces out strings suitably for strumming,
flatpicking, or fingerstyling, with a good amount of real estate that
neither feels cramped nor causes you to reach uncomfortably.
