I own two full size Dreadnoughts and wanted a short scale, small body for practice....This guitar fit the bill perfectly and my grandkids can use it comfortably....Came perfectly setup and without any finish flaws....Have to give it 5 stars, you won't be sorry if you purchase......

My dad has had this guitar for a good amount of time and he just gave me one as my first guitar. It's a great guitar in so many ways.
Solid Small Body

I bought this because I liked the ToneBoss pickup and I wanted a cheaper small body that I could use for travel and not worry too much about damaging it. Sounds great out of the box, sounds even better with new strings. No fret buzz, smooth play.
This is the perfect guitar for me

Loving this guitar, nice compact size, big, punchy voice and easy to play. The flat finish is clean look and not fussy (not a fingerprint magnet), the tuners work well, and love the open back vintage look of them. And Guild includes all the allen wrenches and even a screwdriver to make adjustments...how cool. I'm thinking there may be another Guild guitar in my future.
Great tone, surprising volume, and just oh so beautiful

I was not expecting this to sound as rich as it did, with the smaller body - but it really does, maybe it's the sweet arched back that guild is known for? Well it plays great, the open tuners are a classy touch, and I find the pickup really visually appealing - though I admit it really is a matter of preference!! The pickup is maybe a little less loud on my guitar than on an electric or an electric acoustic with under saddle piezo, but I've read that's to be expected given the location and type of pickup. It's only slight noticeable. Overall, very impressed and would recommend.
Excellent guitar

This is the first acoustic guitar that I have ever purchased (after playing an old hand me down for 10 years). I mostly play electric guitars and switching to this feels familiar enough for me to be able to play comfortably. This guitar sounds and plays excellently for the price, I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Is this solid back and sides too? Or just solid top?
Just the top.
