Classic Slope-shoulder Dreadnought from Guild
The Guild DS-240 Memoir is a beautifully designed, incredibly playable, slope-shoulder acoustic guitar at a great price. The DS-240 Memoir features a solid spruce top and gorgeous mahogany back and sides — a wonderful tonewood combination that produces stellar high and midrange tone with rich bass response. A gloss finish on the mahogany back and sides lets its natural coloring really pop. In addition, a comfortable C-shaped mahogany neck with pau ferro fingerboard is incredibly responsive and playable. Scalloped X-bracing further enhances the tone and durability of the DS-240, giving you years of playing and improved tone over time.
