Description

Not every guitar boasts the ability to hold its own at a smokey speakeasy 50s jazz jam, AND on stage with today's top folk-rockers, but then again not every guitar is the Guild X-50.

This illustrious instrument remains in remarkable shape despite its 70 years of stories. Its factory original pickups and pots are intact, with its only modification being a repair and replacement of its input jack. The laminate maple body, combined with the mahogany neck and coveted Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard make this guitar sing, even before it's plugged in. These beautiful acoustic tones, translate smoothly to the Franz P90 soap bar pickup. With its rich sound and stunning aesthetic, it's no wonder Wesley Schultz of The Lumineers has been using it on and off stage for years.

Hardshell Case Included.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
