An Arched-back, Jumbo-sized Tribute to Guild’s Glory Days
The F-250E Deluxe Jumbo acoustic-electric guitar marks a tribute to the days when Guild’s maple-backed jumbos ruled the roost, providing players with exceptional volume and a clear, balanced tone across all six strings. The key to this guitar’s pristine tone is its combination of a solid Sitka spruce top and maple back and sides. Moreover, this guitar’s uniquely arched back design is all but unheard of among flat-top guitar makers, significantly bolstering your unplugged projection. On the opposite end of this guitar’s stout jumbo body lies a comfortable “C”-shaped mahogany neck, topped with a 16-inch-radius slab of pau ferro, then finished off with elegant neck binding. You also get a stage-ready Guild/Fishman Sonitone GT-1 pickup system with built-in volume and tone controls. Big, bold, and utterly unique, the Guild F-250E is a stage-ready acoustic-electric jumbo that’s sure to set you apart from the pack.

Arched laminated maple back supplies sonorous projection
Never content to retrace the footsteps of competitors, Guild has always paved its path when it comes to 6-string design. Few guitars prove that point better than the F-250E Deluxe Jumbo, an acoustic-electric modeled after Guild’s golden age of jumbo guitars. What makes this guitar so unique? While maple and jumbos are a natural pairing in the 6-string world, Guild’s jumbo-sized guitars swap out the standard flat back found on almost every acoustic with a laminated arched back. The result? An immense level of unplugged projection that’s impressive even when compared with the canon-like volume of standard-spec jumbo guitars. Along with a pair of beautifully flamed maple back and sides, the F-250E grants you an extraordinarily balanced tone, with particularly crisp highs, a tight low end, and plenty of midrange.
Crafted for a comfortable playing experience
The F-250E’s clean playability will help channel all your creative ideas into beautiful music. Seasoned players will immediately notice the F-250E’s outstanding playability all along the 25.5-inch-scale-length “C”-shaped neck. The 1-11/16-inch nut width spaces out strings suitably for strumming, flatpicking, or fingerstyle; with a good amount of real estate that neither feels cramped nor causes you to stretch uncomfortably.
Guild: a heritage of quality
Since the 1950s, the Guild name has been synonymous with premium acoustic guitars. See the F-250E’s iconic Guild peak headstock logo? That’s your assurance of Guild quality, which is evident throughout this commanding acoustic guitar, from the premium solid tonewoods to the genuine bone nut and saddle. Sweetwater guitarists agree: the Guild F-250E is an acoustic guitar that’s made to be seen — and heard.
