About This Listing

Hey, glad you made it! Hang on tight, because this one's special.

So what is it? Guild Acoustic.... Dreadnought.....handmade in Nashville, Tennessee.

Yes you read that correctly.

This example is in fact one of two Guild Custom Shop D-55 Dreadnoughts that were produced in Nashville as production samples.

Acquired locally from the builder, they had kept this guitar primarily in storage over its 22 year life.

Featuring solid rosewood back and sides, spruce top, ebony board, two-piece mahogany neck, and beautiful mother of pearl and abalone inlays.

Instrument is free from any damage, deep scratches, scuffs and dings, although worth noting are two cracks in the finish which we've highlighted via photograph.

Will ship in original Hardshell case.
