Reviews

Great guitar, Fishman not so great.

I love the resonance of the instrument and the harmonics are brillant. The woodwork is nicely done (especially the neck inlays). The cut-away is very well designed and is very playable all the way up ... read more [+]the neck to the highest fret. However, the active electronics are not quite up to the level of the guitar. The battery is hard to get to (under the strings) and will quickly drain if you don't unplug it. Because I love the guitar itself I may eventually replace the pick-up system. close [-]

Beautiful Guitar

I recently purchased the Guild GAD-50PCE from Sweetwater and fell in love with it soon as I opened the case. The woods are beautiful and the tone is incredible. This guitar truly sings. Sweetwater ... read more [+]set the guitar up perfectly so the playability is amazingly easy. I've owned Alvarez and Carvin (and a Madera by Guild about 30 years ago), but these pale in comparison to this instrument. Even the case is reminicient of a piece of quality 1940s era luggage. The only downside so far is the lack of user information available on the Fishman Matrix soundhole pickup, even from Fishman. Otherwise, this guitar is definitely a wise investment which I enthusiastically recommend to anyone who is searching for a quality, easy-to-play guitar that sounds incredible. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
