Concert-Size M-40 and M-50 Standard Acoustic Guitars Added to Guild USA Series of Premium Instruments
CALABASAS, Calif. October 14, 2025 – Guild® Guitars today introduced the USA-made* M-50 Standard Natural, M-50 Standard Antique Burst, M-40 Standard Natural, and M-40 Standard Pacific Sunset Burst concert-size acoustic guitars. Acoustic-electric versions with factory-installed L.R. Baggs® Element VTC active pickup systems are also available as “E” models.
“These new guitars have smaller bodies and wider nut widths, which are popular with singer-songwriters, fingerstyle guitarists, and recording engineers and producers,” said Nick Beach, Product Manager, Fretted Instruments. “They are built entirely of premium solid woods for exceptional tone and responsiveness and have a ‘played-in’ look and feel thanks to their Vintage Gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finishes.”
The M-50 Standard Natural and M-50 Standard Antique Burst guitars feature solid Sitka spruce tops and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, mahogany C shape necks with Indian rosewood fingerboards, tortoiseshell pickguards, and Guild Deluxe Vintage open-gear tuners with butterbean buttons.
The M-40 Standard Natural and M-40 Standard Pacific Sunset Burst guitars feature solid Sitka spruce tops and solid African mahogany back and sides, mahogany C shape necks with Indian rosewood fingerboards, tortoiseshell pickguards, and Guild Deluxe Vintage open-gear tuners with cream oval buttons.
All guitars come with Guild Deluxe humidified hardshell cases and Certificates of Authenticity.
