Guild M-75 Aristocrat Hollowbody Electric Guitar

Description: A P-90 Twist on Guild’s High-class Aristocrat A full hollowbody through and through, the Guild M-75 Aristocrat pays tribute to Guild’s compact 6-string electric offerings of the early 1950s. This slim single-cut starts with an arched spruce top, fit with mahogany for the back and sides. It’s a rich and resonant tonewood combination that results in both a pleasing acoustic projection for couch strumming and a deep, complex character when it comes time to plug in. Moreover, as this guitar lacks the F-holes and sheer surface area of many archtop hollowbodies, it’s also far less prone to feedback when you turn up the heat. Love classic tones? Who doesn’t! Well, this axe delivers them in spades, by way of dual Franz P-90 Soapbar pickups. What about playability? A 3-piece mahogany/maple neck in Guild Vintage Soft U profile, a 9.5-inch-radius ebony fingerboard, and 22 jumbo frets split the difference between vintage Sweetwater is an Authorized Guild Dealer Genuine New Item Sweetwater's 2-year warranty and 55 point inspection Guild M-75 Aristocrat Hollowbody Electric Guitar - Black Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Spruce Top, Mahogany Back and Sides, Maple/Mahogany Neck, Ebony Fingerboard, and 2 Single-coil Pickups - Black A P-90 Twist on Guild’s High-class Aristocrat A full hollowbody through and through, the Guild M-75 Aristocrat pays tribute to Guild’s compact 6-string electric offerings of the early 1950s.

A 3-piece mahogany/maple neck in Guild Vintage Soft U profile, a 9.5-inch-radius ebony fingerboard, and 22 jumbo frets split the difference between vintage vibe and modern fleet-fingered performance. Bookended by lock-tight Grover Sta-Tite open-gear tuners and a TOM-style bridge with a harp tailpiece, the Guild M-75 Aristocrat is a compact, versatile, and remarkably easy-playing homage to Guild’s Hoboken, New Jersey, heyday.Classic tone from a pair of P-90 pickups Armed with a pair of Franz P-90 Soapbar pickups, your Guild M-75 Aristocrat will reward you with a wide range of classic tones. These pickups exhibit a gnarly, yet completely transparent sound, with mids so thick you can eat them with a spoon. Run them into a clean amp, and you’ll enjoy a muscular blend of snap, punch, and bite. Park them in front of a high-gain amp, and you’ll experience paint-peeling grind. And the M-75 Aristocrat is sonically flexible, too, thanks to individual Volume and Tone controls for each pickup.Comfortably slimmed-down body While it’s by all accounts a fully hollowbody instrument, the M-75 Aristocrat’s profile is far thinner than your average archtop. In fact, the M-75 Aristocrat strikes the perfect balance between playing comfort and rich, complex hollowbody tones, and it’s also less prone to feedback than a deep-bodied archtop. Finally — and most importantly for Sweetwater’s couch-bound strummers — the M-75 Aristocrat retains the formidable hollowbody unplugged projection so beloved by players who prefer to practice without plugging in.Old-school charm meets modern playability The Guild M-75 Aristocrat's neck is highly resistant to shifting in setup thanks to its 3-piece mahogany and maple construction. This fine quality is further aided by the neck’s somewhat stout profile, boasting Guild’s Vintage Soft U profile. This pleasing shape supplies a touch of vintage charm without scaring off players more familiar with paper-thin modern neck profiles. Plus, the elegant ebony fingerboard’s modern 9.5-inch radius and 22 jumbo frets form a thoroughly bend-friendly foundation for lead players.Guild M-75 Aristocrat Features: A modernized tribute to Guild’s M-75 guitars of the early 1950s Resonant hollowbody design, sporting a spruce top and mahogany back/sides for pleasing unplugged projection and a rich, complex electric tone 3-piece maple/mahogany neck, wearing Guild’s comfortable Vintage Soft U profile Ebony fingerboard planed into a modern 9.5-in. radius with bend-friendly jumbo frets Franz P-90 Soapbar pickups exhibit a gnarly, transparent sound with super-thick mids TOM-style bridge with Guild’s iconic harp tailpiece Rock-solid Grover Sta-Tite open-back tuners for a touch of retro charm High-class visual appointments include a striking finish, nickel hardware, body/fingerboard binding, and bold block inlays SpecificationDetail Model M-75 Aristocrat Special Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Type Hollowbody Body Shape Singlecut Body Material Mahogany Top Material Solid Arched Spruce Color Black Body Finish Gloss Polyurethane Neck Material Mahogany Neck Shape Vintage Soft U Neck Joint Set Neck Radius 9.5" Fingerboard Material Ebony Fingerboard Inlay Blocks Number of Frets 22 Scale Length 24.75" Nut Width 1.6875" Nut Material Bone Bridge/Tailpiece Guild Tune-O-Matic bridge, Harp tailpiece Tuners Grover Sta-Tite, 18:1 Neck Pickup Franz P90 Single-coil Bridge Pickup Franz P90 Single-coil Controls 2 x volume, 2 x tone Switching 3-way toggle pickup switch Strings D'Addario EXL115, .011-.049 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
