Guild® Guitars today announced two new additions to their Memoir collection of acoustic guitars: The DS-240 Wine Red and the DS-240E Black.
These beautiful retro-looking slope shoulder dreadnoughts are built with solid Sitka Spruce tops and Mahogany backs and sides, featuring a sleek, gloss finish. Their vintage-inspired Mother-of-Pearl rosette and Guild Script Logo pay homage to the classic styling of instruments from the 1930s. The DS-240 offers an instantly warm, clear, and inviting sound—almost as if its tone has been perfected over years of fireside strumming and family jamming.
“We are delighted to be able to provide players with these two new options that are a part of our Memoir collection,” stated Nick Beach, Product Manager for Guild Guitars. “These new finishes expand on the retro aesthetic of the DS-240, and we’re also excited to offer a version with a pick-up.”
The DS-240 Memoir collection is now available in three beautiful finishes: the DS-240 comes in Vintage Sunburst and Wine Red, while the DS-240E comes in Black and features a DeArmond® Tone Boss soundhole pickup.
