Very impressed with this guitar. Right out of the box it was ready to go. The bass was woody, and the trebles had a warm shimmer. The tonal response of this guitar was tight and focused low to high. I installed an LR Baggs M80 in mine, and it's a powerhouse performer for the stage. Very responsive to touch. An articulate guitar that will inspire and empower you. I've been searching for this tone for awhile. Guild does it for me!

From the moment I first strummed this guitar I was in love! This guitar has beautiful highs, nice mid-range and very good lows, not to mention the all-day-long sustain.As far as play-ability; all I did was change the strings, tune her up and was plying like Al Di Meola,,, OK that last part was a lie but I was amazed at how easy this guitar is to play.The wood and the finish were flawless, really, really beautiful!Amazing guitar for the price!!!

I am new to playing and I have had Alvarez guitars and a Orangewood guitar. This guitar is unbelievably good. An all solid guild that sounds like a guitar worth at least a few thousand bucks. Huge boom in the low end and glassy highs. I can’t say enough good things about this purchase. The cherry burst finish is so pleasing and eye catching it’s an absolutely beautiful piece of work for the money.

I just received this very guitar today, I got the D-240e about 2 weeks ago and thought that was amazing but this guitar is unbelievable. I got a Taylor 114ce a year ago and this guitar being cheaper in price is far superior in sound, feel and playability. The sustain is incredible and the notes ring clearly and the separation is beautiful. This guitar is not a USA made Guild but the quality and build quality is superb. The case it comes with is like a hard-shell but has straps like a backpack. It has crushed green velvety material inside. I couldn't be happier with a guitar. If this guitar is this great, I can only imagine how good a D-55 would be. My guess is that it is better but not by much. This guitar is amazing for the price, you really can't get a better guitar for the price hands down. You almost surely won't find an American made one for the price much less a build quality this amazing.

Purchased my first acoustic in 45 years. A Guild D-140. Couldn't be happier!! It looks absolutely stunning with its Sitka spruce sunburst top and mahogony back and sides. Both features also make for a fantastic sounding acoustic 6-string. The sound is full and rich, and the playability is excellent! No doubt the best purchase I've made in years. A good friend of mine bought a Guild in 1974, and I also said that, if and when I buy another acoustic, it will be a Guild. I'm glad I held out for this baby!!

This guitar was my first puchase from zZounds, and I couldn't be more disappointed. When it arrived at the tail end of the delivery window, I opened the factory box. The guitar had not been inspected, as it had sharp frets that extended past the edge of the fretboard. The guitar had not had a factory set up, either. What's worse is that zZounds had not inspected the guitar, either. If they had, this would probably be a very different review, as the guitar was in otherwise good shape. I expect more for an $800 instrument.
