Straight-shooting vintage vibe with dual "Anti-Hum" pickups and Guild Vibrato Tailpiece.

Stellar features are all here, including the extra thin hollowbody, graceful single Florentine cutaway, vibrato tailpiece and brilliant finish. This is the welcome return of a rocking early ’60s favorite with a personality all its own.
