Better than expected...again!

First and foremost Sweetwater is an awesome company to work with. Knowledgable, courteous and professional. Stand behind everything they sell and really seem to appreciate your business. As for the Guitar; this is my second Guild so I expected the craftsmanship and attention to detail to be excellent and it did not disappoint. I was looking for an everyday, good sounding guitar… read more at a price point that I wouldn't be afraid to take it out to the mountains or to the beach. The slope shoulder vintage look was a bonus for me- something I always wanted but figured I couldn't afford. The guitar was set up perfectly and I didn't need to make any adjustments on my end. The DS 240 Memoir is so comfortable and light....such a pleasure and joy to play. Just feels so natural to strum and pick. The sound and tone are quite impressive and I know with that solid top is just going to sound better over time. This one checked all of my boxes and some! I would definitely recommend this Guild DS-240 to anyone looking for a GREAT sounding, awesome looking easy playing/picking guitar.

It's the real deal

I bought this guitar and when it arrived it was perfectly packed and in excellent shape. I unboxed it, let the guitar acclimate a few hours, and then tuned up. This guitar sang right out of the gate. The setup was exactly what I wanted, the guitar has beautiful long sustain and the bottom end booms nice with a flat pick. I had never dreamed that a Guild guitar on this price point… read more would play as well as their upper end guitars, and it was a pleasant surprise to find that this one does. It's neck is fast, it holds tune, very finely finished and it's a Guild. You really want to try this guitar, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Guild DS240

Arrived in 2 days packaged nicely as always very nice fit and finish the sunburst is beautiful. Action was spot on for my preference right out of the box I did have to adjust the neck relief a little but not a big deal to me. This is the first guild I've bought and I absolutely love this thing plays fantastic and the tone is just as fantastic. I have a Martin and this plays and… read more sounds just about as good to my ears. Sweetwater is outstanding to deal with always fast shipping and if you ever have a problem with something they'll bend over backwards to make it right

Unbelievable

This guitar is beautiful and sounds amazing regardless of playing style. With it's reasonable price point, I was able to buy a really nice Guild hard case and an LR Baggs Lyric pick up! Seriously it's an excellent guitar. It's light weight too so it's easy on the neck and shoulders. I prefer a wider neck but that's more player preference. Hey Guild, can you make a jumbo version… read more with the same finish?
