Guild F-130CE Sunburst GAD electro-acoustic western guitar
Product no: 9000-0014-7761 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

This luxurious electro-acoustic western guitar responds to the name Guild F-130CE SB (Sunburst). It is a high-quality all-solid instrument from Guild's GAD series, and it features an Orchestra body, which means that it is relatively compact for a more direct core sound than the popular Dreadnought. Such features make it a great choice for guitarists who switch between fingerpicking and strumming. Along that vein, it's also well-suited for musicians who enjoy more complex fingerpicking styles, thanks to the 1.75-inch string nut and the slim, satin gloss neck. This guitar conveniently comes with a deluxe case for storage and transport.

F-130CE SB: quality sound

One of the most important features of this guitar is the fact that it is made entirely with solid wood, which is uncommon for guitars in this price class. All-solid guitars guarantee a rich, far-reaching sound that has the right ratio of sparkle (spruce) and depth (mahogany). Even when you connect the F-130CE Sunburst to an acoustic guitar amp or a mixing console, you can count on getting the same great acoustic sound, thanks to the Fishman Sonitone pickup and active internal preamp. Volume and tone controls are available on the inside of the sound hole so you can adjust your amplified sound.

Guild GAD guitars

Guild has enjoyed an excellent reputation since they began building guitars in 1953, and their current incarnation of the GAD series (Guild Acoustic Design) offers you more value for your money than ever before. Each of the western guitars in the series has an all-solid body and is equipped with a number of tasteful, luxurious visual details. A lot of time was spent on ensuring maximum playing comfort during the design phase, and you can see that in the smooth-playing neck with a satin gloss finish. This guitar is an excellent choice for guitarists looking for a great sound and an impressive price to quality ratio.
