Here is a 1972 Guild D-40 in very excellent condition. This is a picker's dream- this one sings and sustains for days! A luthier went with it when it's initial owner (thats right- one owner) brought it to me to offer for him. It has a new bone saddle and remodelled bone nut, otherwise absolutely nothing required attention on this fine piece. The action is set well, simple to play and looks efficient the 12th fret (see picture). There is small fretwear, a few small nicks and scratches (as envisioned) and the plastic heel cover has actually consulted age. It showcases Grover butterbean tuners and has actually simply had brand-new strings place on when it was cleaned and polished.
The initial hardshell case has actually been changed with a brand-new Guild deluxe hardshell case- however I kept the original documentation that came with the guitar in 1972. Have a look at the video of a quick demonstration /watch?v=e0meD-1FX5k, this one is a beauty. You might buy a contemporary reissue of this classic for more than more than once the cost, or enjoy this vintage original's workmanship with funds to spare!.
The D-40 Bluegrass Jubilee was created to optimize the tight bass and clear trebles of the traditional mahogany dreadnought. The scalloped braced red spruce top produces a dynamic range of tones, from intimate and warm to punchy and aggressive. Adored by flat pickers for its loud estimate, tight mids and punch, yet delicate enough for finger style playing, the D-40 Bluegrass Jubilee is a fantastic selection for a wide range of different styles.
