Guild S-300 Deluxe VSM (Vintage Sterling Metallic) Solid Body Electric Guitar
Classic Guild craftsmanship meets bold vintage-inspired styling in the Guild S-300 Deluxe VSM (Vintage Sterling Metallic). Originally introduced in the late 1970s as one of Guild's most distinctive offset electric guitars, the S-300 was ahead of its time with its futuristic double-cutaway design and versatile electronics. Today, the S-300 Deluxe faithfully revives that iconic model with premium appointments, exceptional playability, and the rich tones modern guitarists demand.
Finished in the elegant Vintage Sterling Metallic (VSM) finish, this guitar is as visually striking as it is sonically versatile. Its solid mahogany body and set mahogany neck provide outstanding sustain, warmth, and resonance, while the comfortable Vintage Soft "U" neck profile makes both rhythm playing and lead work feel effortless.
Equipped with a pair of Guild HB-2+ Alnico V humbucking pickups, the S-300 Deluxe delivers everything from smooth vintage cleans to powerful rock overdrive. Independent volume and tone controls for each pickup, a three-way selector switch, and the signature phase switch provide an impressive palette of tones that easily cover virtually any musical style. Whether you're performing live, recording in the studio, or rehearsing with your band, the Guild S-300 Deluxe is ready to inspire.
