Guild F-55E Jumbo Acoustic/Electric Guitar Antique Sunburst W/OHSC.

I love these Guild guitars. I have owned a few of them over the years and they are incredible. The tone out of these just plain kills anything Gibson puts out in this price range. They are not only extremely well made, they are incredibly playable and beautiful as well.

This guitar is in incredible shape and has no issues.

The rosewood back and sides are awesome. The finishing touch is the best acoustic pickup system on the market, the LR Baggs Anthem. About the only thing this guitar won’t do is play itself.

Comes as pictured with original, very deluxe case that even has a built in humidifier and all the paperwork and case candy you see pictured.

Stellar guitar, these are $4700 new. Save over a grand off of new price and get this one in basically ‘new’ condition.

 

 

Specs/info:

The jumbo bodied F-55 (formerly F-50R) produces an extraordinary amount of volume and warmth, matching a tight grained solid Sitka spruce top with solid Indian rosewood back and sides for extraordinary separation and clarity. Its strong, focused bass response, sweet, singing mids, and crisp highs give it a distinctive voice that sets this guitar apart from all others. Elegant cosmetic appointments include the classic Guild “V-block” inlays, gold Gotoh hardware, and a beautiful Nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Exceptional build quality and premium specifications make it a worthy heir to the historic Guild jumbo legacy. Available in Natural or Sunburst finish, and also available with LR Baggs Electronics.
