Guild pioneered acoustic bass guitar design in the mid-1970s with the B-50, which featured a jumbo body shape, arched mahogany back, and a 30 3/4” scale length. These vintage features are back with the B-240EF, offering bassists a workhorse instrument with big tone that plays with ease. Built with a solid Sitka spruce top over an arched mahogany back and mahogany sides, the B-240EF will hold its own in acoustic jams. Can also be easily amplified through the onboard Guild/Fishman Bass Sonitone Bass system. Features a fretless pau ferro fingerboard with maple fret lines, providing a spectrum of sounds from mellow upright bass to bright and growly Jazz fusion. Features a pau ferro bridge, slim C shape neck profile, 1 5/8” bone nut and bone saddle, tortoiseshell pickguard, and mother-of-pearl rosette. A Guild deluxe padded gig bag is included.
