Description:

Here we have a guitar that for years has given Martin and most other guitar makers a run for their money in quality, tone, sound and playability. This Guild D-50 Standard Acoustic Dreadnought in a Natural finish comes here with a mint/New Humidifier Wood Guild case. In fact this is a mint or really a new guitar that was bought in January of 2025 and only played a few times. Notice the unusual marking on the ebony headstock since Ebony is not always Black! This is certainty a beautiful instrument to behold and hold, but wait to you strum it!


Guild’s reintroduction of the D-50 Standard introduces our new Vintage Gloss nitro finish. This all-new finish is an ultra-thin nitrocellulose lacquer with both satin and gloss qualities that highlight the natural beauty of the tonewoods. With an even smoother texture than the original nitrocellulose satin finish, the Vintage Gloss features a hand-sprayed soft, silky coating that gives each guitar a worn-in vintage feel and tone, with a modern sleek appearance.

We ship mostly UPS through Staples pickup but use other sources to. And we ship on Tuesdays and Thursdays/Fridays. Staples is a half hour drive each way so we try not to waste time and some weeks we combine shipping days. We are also the best of packers, well Rory is!

There are no breaks or repairs on these guitars, and they are not stamped, used or are they 2nd’s
 and not a B-stock or a blem models.

And please realize that the price of shipping reflects the fact that these guitars comes in a cases, so therefore it adds to the weight & size of the package.  

Pre-Owned items are sold as-is, sale is final and therefore no returns!

At Rocking the Shack, we like guitars in cases, nice and safe! And are also big fans of strap locks! Pickguards are also nice since they do protect the finish!   
Also at the Shack we do set-ups but only when requested by customer, ( a $90.00 - $120.00 charge) Unless, at times we feel that a set up would really benefit an instrument then we just do it. 
Of course every guitar deserves a good set up with new strings. 

In the Shack we keep climate control conditions all year round and the instruments live in a smoke free environment in their cases!  
As mentioned before we love cases and strap locks for the safety and protection they offer.  Need we say more!   

Pick guards are also nice for protection of the body and when matched up right they can bring out the hidden beauty in an instrument! 

  We pride ourselves in offering quality working beautiful instruments for sale. We are great communicators and the best packers and shippers. We ship with Reverb Safe Protection throughout the states and UPS mostly. 

*Important note*
We used to sell and ship to Canada using UPS, but cannot anymore due to the hidden fee’s of UPS which are added to the custom shipping fee's at the border. And in the end the Canadian customer would have to pay bit more! We will only Ship to Canada using USPS or other services!

We spend the time needed to make sure you are a happy customer. It gives us great joy to know someone is playing and enjoying an instrument we have worked on and owned. 

Thanks so much for your interest!
