Guild DS-240 Memoir Acoustic Guitar – Wine Red, Solid Spruce Top, Solid Mahogany Back & Sides

The Guild DS-240 Memoir is a beautifully designed, incredibly playable acoustic guitar at a great price. It features a solid spruce top and gorgeous mahogany back and sides — a wonderful tonewood combination that produces stellar high and midrange tones with rich bass response. In addition, a comfortable C-shaped mahogany neck with a pau ferro fingerboard is highly responsive and playable. Scalloped X-bracing further enhances the tone and durability of the DS-240, giving you years of playing and improved tone over time. All in all, the DS-240 Memoir perfectly captures the retro flair and warm, balanced tone of the iconic slope-shouldered dreads of yore, representing an ideal 6-string option for singer/songwriters, country pickers, fingerstyle players, and scores of other styles.
