Description

Here to help you write your own story—the Memoir DS-240. This retro-looking slope shoulder dreadnought is built with a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides with a sleek, gloss finish. The vintage-inspired mother of pearl rosette and Guild Script Logo pay homage to the classic styling of instruments from the 1920s. The DS-240’s sound is instantly warm, clear and inviting—almost as if its tone has been perfected over years of fireside strumming and family jamming.

  • Fantastic guitar!
After visiting local stores and ordering and returning two other guitars, I decided to try one more time and ordered this Guild DS240 and I am so glad I did! It sounds awesome and is very playable! It is well made and looks great! A perfect addition to my musical family!

  • What a Great Deal!
There are lots of pictures of this guitar online, but check out Alamo Music on youtube and watch Cooper Greenberg playing it. This guitar is very capable. On top of that , it's even more beautiful than I thought it would be. It's difficult to see in pictures but the headstock logo is inlaid mother of pearl and so is the rosette . The Tobacco burst with its high gloss finish is simply beautiful. The playability is so nice with low action and the tone is lovely. You can tell someone actually did a set up on it, and with a 24.75 inch scale its very comfortable to play. It is an understated yet elegant guitar. If someone didn't know the cost of it, they would assume it was much more expensive than what it is. You Don't need to spend a fortune for a great Guitar! ... show more

  • Impressed
Out of the box, all factory setup, and jammed on this guitar for 3 hours. I could not find any cosmetic flaws, love the look, plays well, and sounds really good for the money. Lacking a little in the low end but a nice overall balance for strumming and finger picking.

  • Incredible Value
I've never been more pleased with a guitar purchase except perhaps my 016 Strat or my 77 LP. I've owned a Gib^&* G45 at three times the cost, and as soon as I laid my hands on this Guild, I sold off that other guitar and this became my number one. Now I know the 45 is a classic dating back to pre-WWI years, but they are still being made today, and are not cheap despite using some very basic materials in manufacture. This Guild is everything those guitars are and more. The neck is fast and easy, the top is extremely resonant with just the right amount of lo-mid-high balance, the finish is a beautiful gloss that shines up like a mirror, yet the neck is matte to avoid stickiness. I just love the look and aesthetic of the slope shoulder design; It doesn't feel like a dreadnaught, yet has the voicing of one. If you are in the market for one of these and can't decide between the Gib*&^ and the Guild, I say pop for the Guild. They are the best kept guitar secret out there, and if Guilds are good enough for Fahey, they're good enough for me! ... show more

  • Awesome Guitar
I own 18 acoustic guitars and this Guild goes head to head with my Martin. Very good value for the price. Not to mention, it is beautiful and is very comfortable to play. Very balanced sound.

  • This guitar sounds incredible
My guitar was delivered on time. No damage. Tuned right up. Intonation perfect. No string buzz. Action is good. I would of liked a padded gig bag for the price I paid other then that I got a quality guitar. No complaints
