This is the most beautiful guitar I own and it sounds and plays perfectly. I recommend this instrument for anyone that is thinking of buying it. For the money it can't be beat.

Incredible Guitar

by Steve Norris from Kingsport, TN

 Music Background: Pro Musician
I've played classical guitar for a lot of years. I own guitars worth in the $10,000 range. I needed an inexpensive classical for some road work, so I bought the Guild GAD-C3. Boy was I shocked. This g... read more [+]uitar is simply amazing. Fit and finish is excellent. Looks awesome. Feels great. What has simply blown me away is the sound. Granted, the first thing I had to do is replace the awful strings that come on it with some Savarez... but since then, I find myself playing the Guild over guitars worth 5 times more. This is absolutely the most awesome guitar for the buck that I have found. Highly recommended even to the professional classical musician! close [-]
