This Guild Newark St. Bluesbird in Gloss Black is a sleek, lightweight, and musical take on the classic single‑cut. With its chambered mahogany body and carved maple top it delivers a perfect blend of vintage warmth, clarity, and dynamic response.

If you want a guitar that feels alive in your hands, balances beautifully, and covers everything from blues and soul to rock and indie, the Bluesbird is one of the most underrated choices out there.

Includes nice gray Guild gig bag.
