Guild F-250E Deluxe Blonde

Introducing the F-250E Deluxe Blonde, a contemporary marvel among jumbo acoustic guitars, seamlessly blending modern innovation with Guild's rich legacy as pioneers of large-bodied acoustics dating back to the 1960s. Crafted with the striking "blonde" tonewood fusion of Sitka Spruce and Flamed Maple for the back and sides, this instrument not only captivates the eye but also delivers unparalleled sound quality. Guild's renowned arched back design, coupled with this tonewood combination, ensures heightened volume, remarkable projection, enduring sustain, and a sumptuously rich tonal palette. Musicians have long admired maple for its ability to soar above ambient noise and combat feedback issues associated with deeper, bass-heavy tonewoods.

The F-250E Deluxe boasts a plethora of premium features, including scalloped Sitka Spruce bracing, a bone nut and saddle for optimal resonance transfer, elegant white body and fingerboard binding, Guild Vintage 18 Tuners renowned for their precision with an 18:1 Gear Ratio, and exquisite Mother of Pearl Rosette and Guild headstock "Peak" inlay. Its high gloss finish accentuates the flame of the back and sides, while the satin finish on the neck ensures a lightning-fast, velvety-smooth playing experience. Moreover, this sonic powerhouse shines in amplified environments, thanks to the Fishman GT-1 pickup system equipped with soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls. With the F-250E Deluxe Blonde, Guild continues to redefine excellence in acoustic guitar craftsmanship, offering a truly unique instrument that stands as a testament to both tradition and innovation.
