M-240E

The M-240E Natural is one of the smallest instruments in the Guild acoustic archback line. Created in homage to the petite Guild F-20 that was popular with folk guitarists during the 1960s, it is ideal for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle guitarists, smaller players, and those seeking a high-quality travel guitar. The M-240E Natural sports a solid Sitka spruce top combined with mahogany sides and an arched mahogany back—resulting in a surprisingly full and well-balanced sound for a small-bodied instrument. The guitar also features a pau ferro fingerboard and bridge, a real bone nut and saddle, a mother-of-pearl rosette, and a beautiful Natural satin finish. An integrated Fishman-designed GT-1 pickup system with Volume and Tone controls faithfully reproduces the guitar’s acoustic sound when it is amplified.
