The concert-sized Guild M-240E is no exception. This little guitar plays great and knows how to cut through a mix. Its classic mahogany/spruce construction produces a warm, natural tone with complex overtones and surprising projection that can fill a room with music.Guild AP-1 pickup captures this Westerly's natural acoustic voice The Westerly series' AP-1 piezo pickup is one of the better options we've 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.Guild M-240E Westerly Concert Acoustic-electric Guitar Features: Iconic arched back pays tribute to Guild's early acoustics Unique design is lighter and louder than comparably sized guitars Comfortable concert body can fill a room with music Vintage-profiled C-shaped neck with Indian rosewood fingerboard plays comfortably 1960s red tortoiseshell pickguard looks great onstage Bone nut and saddle enhance sustain and clarity 1-11/16" nut width suits strummers to fingerstylists 24.75" scale length has a slinky-smooth action Guild AP-1 pickup system provides a clean sound for the stage and studio SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Concert Back & Sides Wood Mahogany Top Wood Solid Sitka Spruce Finish Satin Polyurethane Color Natural Body Bracing Scalloped X-bracing Binding White ABS Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape Slim C Radius 16" Fingerboard Material Pau Ferro Fingerboard Inlay Pearloid Dots Number of Frets 20 Scale Length 24.75" Nut Width 1.688" Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Bone Bridge Material Pau Ferro Tuning Machines Guild Vintage-style Open Gear Electronics Guild/Fishman AP1 with Sonicore pickukp Strings D'Addario, .012-.053 Case Included Sold Separately Body Length 18" Body Width 13.8" Lower Bout, 10.25" Upper Bout Body Depth 4" Lower, 3.25" Upper Overall Length 39.5" RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
