Guild

collapse expand iconDescription

The elegant tone quality and design of this guitar will bring real satisfaction of ownership to the most critical player. A truly outstanding acoustic-electric, the A-150 Savoy is a pleasure to see and hear, pairing a wonderfully free-playing late-1950s Guild orchestra model with the distinctive addition of an exceptionally voiced DeArmond 1000 floating pickup. The A-150 Savoy is a welcome return of a true Guild classic.

This special hollowbody archtop electric guitar includes a case.
