What's special about this item?

Fishman Sonitone electronics Natural sounding and loud; great live projection
Solid spruce top Punchy, articulate and warm sound
Rosewood back and sides Warm tone with long sustain
Mahogany neck Great sustain, strength, and warm tone

A full-figured force of nature, the Guild F-150RCE acoustic-electric guitar adds Fishman electronics to a jumbo body with a solid spruce top, for booming tones that reach even the cheap seats.

Big Body, Big Sound

Jumbo acoustic guitars are known for naturally deep sounds and well-defined lows. The Guild F-150RCE lives up to that image with its modern jumbo design. Chords ring out with authority and single notes remain articulate even in busy fingerpicking passages. That single-note clarity and the ability to handle the low spectrum are two reasons the jumbo guitar shape has found a home among players fond of alternate tunings.

Solid Tonewoods

The F-140RCE's solid spruce top lends a resonance to the body that will only get better with time. The carved back helps the F-150RCE belt out that well-rounded tone. Solid rosewood back and sides reinforce this Guild's large frame, and are elegantly capped off with ivoroid binding.

Electronic Headroom Abounds

There are some situations when even naturally loud jumbo guitars may not be quite loud enough. That's when the F-150RCE's Fishman Sonitone pickup system shines. The system uses an under-saddle transducer to faithfully reproduce the guitar's shimmering clean tones in a live setting. The discreet volume and tone controls located in the guitar's soundhole help to preserve its natural look.

Design Choices Enhance Playability

The Guild F-150RCE's mahogany neck is carved in a slim profile with satin finish that entices read more the player to try out their best legato runs and widest chord shapes. A deep cutaway joins the body at the 17th fret, making high registers easy to reach. Some players will find the F-150RCE's carved back preferable for seated play.

Features:

- Solid spruce top
- Solid rosewood back and sides
- Ivoroid binding
- Scalloped spruce bracing
- Mahogany neck with slim profile and satin finish
- Rosewood fretboard
- Fishman Sonitone under-saddle pickup with endpin-mounted preamp
- Volume and tone controls located inside sound hole
- Nu-bone nut and saddle
- Mother-of-pearl rosette
- Hardshell case included

With its naturally loud demeanor, it's not easy for the Guild F-150RCE to hide quietly in the corner. But when you hear it's robust and crisp sound, that's the last thing you'll want it to do.

Awesome guitar! This plays like a dream, the in-hole controls for the pickup are really stealthy, what a way to keep from violating the guitar body. I highly recommend this for any guitar player looking to step up his or her game!
