Guild F-240E – Acoustic-Electric Jumbo Guitar (Natural)

Get incredible tone and playability in the F-240E Acoustic-electric Guitar from Guild. This F-Jumbo body acoustic features mahogany back and sides with a solid Sitka spruce top for a stunning blend of low end and midrange that also delivers incredible projection and giant volume — unplugged or amplified. The F-240E also features a mahogany neck with pau ferro fingerboard that offers outstanding playability and response — flatpicking and fingerpicking enthusiasts will both find this neck a joy to play. And when you plug in, a Guild/Fishman Sonitone GT-1 with volume and tone controls ensure pristine, authentic acoustic tone.

The Guild/Fishman GT1 with Sonicore pickup in the F-240E is a wonderfully designed system that naturally and fully translates the acoustic tone of this fine instrument. The sound is full and dynamic onstage, and it pairs great with a microphone for recording parts at home or in the studio. Volume and tone controls are mounted directly in the soundhole for easy access, and a look that won’t detract from your guitar’s natural beauty.

Guild outfitted the F-240E with its legendary scalloped X-bracing. This innovative pattern uses crisscrossing, overlapped braces in the body that support better resonance and sustain — as well as promote longevity and durability. In addition, a genuine bone and nut saddle along with a pau ferro bridge support overall resonance and tone. At Sweetwater, we appreciate these added fine appointments for the subtle enhancements they add to the Guild F-240E.
