The ultimate Guild jumbo is here: the F-55 Maple Blond, featuring a tight grained solid Sitka spruce top with arched flamed maple back and maple sides.
Created on the same arch press that’s been a part of Guild manufacturing since 1985, the F-55 Maple provides sharply focused trebles and an articulate mid-range, perfect for a full, centralized, harp-like sound.
Performers have long revered maple for its ability to sing over a crowded room and resist the feedback problems of boomier, bassier tonewoods, and the F-55 Maple does not disappoint.
Elegant cosmetic appointments include classic Guild “V-block” inlays, gold Gotoh hardware, and a beautiful Nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
The Guild USA factory in Oxnard, California, provides exceptional build quality and premium specifications. The Guild USA F-55E makes a worthy heir to the historic Guild jumbo legacy. With LR Baggs Electronics. Includes a Guild Premium Humidified Hard Shell Case.
