Overview
Strumming, fingerpicking or plugging into a PA all suit this left-handed Guild dreadnought, built with an unlaminated spruce top over an arched mahogany back. A Fishman designed pickup system sends the sound to an amp through a standard jack.
Left-handed players rarely get a dreadnought with an unlaminated top and a pickup, and this one adds bone nut and saddle and an arched back for projection. The matte finish is understated. No case, strap or tuner details are listed.
Who it's for
Lefty singer songwriters and worship or coffeehouse players get full dreadnought volume plus a pickup for the stage. Right-handed players need the standard version, and anyone wanting a small travel body should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Built for left-handed players
- Non-laminated spruce top
- Arched back aids volume and sustain
- Bone nut and saddle
- Case or gig bag not listed
- Scale length not listed
- Matte finish shows handling over time
Performance notes
An unlaminated spruce top vibrates more freely than laminate, and the arched mahogany back reflects sound outward for projection and sustain. Amplified tone depends on the pickup system and the amp or PA it feeds.
