Guild Baritone Acoustic-electric with Pristine, Authentic Tone
Get rich, full low tone with the Guild BT-240E Baritone acoustic-electric guitar. This F-Jumbo acoustic-electric guitar features mahogany back and sides with a solid Sitka spruce top for a stunning blend of low end and midrange, and it also delivers incredible projection and giant volume — unplugged or amplified. The BT-240E is tuned to B-E-A-D-F#-B — five steps down from standard tuning. When strummed or picked, this deep-voiced acoustic-electric guitar makes a wonderful accompaniment instrument for almost any ensemble, adding a unique sonic dimension to any mix. A mahogany neck with pau ferro fingerboard offers outstanding playability and response. And when you plug in, a Guild/Fishman Sonitone GT-1 with volume and tone controls ensure pristine, authentic baritone acoustic tone.

Guild/Fishman Sonitone GT-1: full, dynamic tone
The Guild/Fishman Sonitone GT-1 in the BT-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.
Fine appointments enhance the BT-240E
Guild outfitted the BT-240E with their 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 and 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 BT-240E Baritone.
