Frequently Asked Questions
The D-50 offers a noticeably richer, more complex tone due to the solid rosewood back and sides, while the D-40 is brighter and more focused with its mahogany back and sides.
It’s a modern 'C' profile, but with a slightly more rounded feel than a razor-thin modern neck – closer to what Guild offered in the '60s and '70s.
The satin finish is relatively thin, allowing the wood to resonate freely, but it’s not as durable as a gloss finish and requires more careful handling to avoid blemishes.
