General

Guild USA present the electro-acoustic version of the F-55E: a formidable acoustic guitar in terms of size, sound and dynamics. Built using a solid spruce top and a solid maple back and sides, this all-solid acoustic guitar throws down a strong foundation sound supported by clear mids. The F-55E features a satisfying C-profile neck and Guild wouldn't be Guild if the famed American guitar-builder hadn't fleshed out this premium model with several eye-catching extras like the deluxe finish, matching gold-plated open-gear tuners by Gotoh and pearloid-style and abalone V-shaped position markers. Plug this superior six-string guitar into your acoustic amp and revel in the high-quality sound shaped by the built-in LR Baggs pickup system with matching tone controls.
