Guild USA M-25E California Burst Electro-Acoustic Guitar
Product no: 9000-0062-5730 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The impeccable Guild USA M-25E electro-acoustic has a smaller parlor-style body that shapes deliciously rich and warm sound. Just as with the more basic, yet no-less legendary M-20, this more luxurious and slightly more compact guitar has been crafted by the Oxnard workshop in California to deliver incredibly resonant, vintage-feeling sound due to an all-solid mahogany body construction. Besides the sound, the lacquer, sound-hole rosette detailing, and binding, all give this model a distinctly refined look that's only backed up by the buttery smooth feel of the satin-gloss finished C-profile neck. To ensure optimum vibrational transfer, a bone string nut and bridge saddle have been mounted, and when plugged in, the natural acoustic tone is faithfully registered by a fitted LR Baggs pickup. The sensitive construction alone is enough to bring a smile to the face of any devoted student of Nick Drake.
