    The jumbo-sized Guild F-40 Standard Natural acoustic guitar is meticulously crafted in the USA*. A descendant of the rare Guild F-48 Navarre guitar, produced between 1972 and 1976, the F-40 Standard Natural adds modern touches while retaining its predecessor’s vintage flair. Solid African mahogany back and sides provide warmth, while a solid Sitka spruce top adds brightness and clarity—and combined with the jumbo body size, they produce a big, bold, well-balanced sound. The comfortable C-Shape neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard also make the guitar easy to play. A Natural Vintage Gloss nitro finish that highlights the beauty of the woods, complemented by a tortoiseshell pickguard, pearloid rosette, Guild Peak headstock inlay, and Deluxe Vintage tuners with cream buttons, gives the F-40 Standard Natural a timeless look. A deluxe hardshell case and a Certificate of Authenticity are included.

     

    Also available is theF-40E Standard Natural, which includes an integrated L.R. Baggs Element VTC active pickup system with Volume and Tone controls.
