Here for sale we have an Guild Aristocrat HH electric guitar in Transparent Black Sunburst finish. Made in China in 2021 this guitar consists of a Chambered Mahogany body with a Maple top, a Maple neck, and a 22-fret Pau Ferro fingerboard. Other features include Guild Vintage-style Open-gear tuning machines, a tune-o-matic bridge with a Guild tailpiece. Two Guild Proprietary humbuckers are fitted in this guitar, these are wired to a 3-way selector, bridge volume with push/pull coil split, bridge tone, neck volume with push/pull coil split and a neck tone control.

The Maple neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the ‘C’ profile filling the hand without being cumbersome, providing a smooth and articulate playing experience. The Pau Ferro fingerboard feels pleasant under the fingers and provides a smooth playing surface for the user to explore, along with the 12” radius making bending and vibrato techniques a breeze. The single cutaway body design offers the player unobstructed access to the higher register, perfect for those quick lead lines, whilst the chambered body helps bring the weight of the guitar down making those long gigs an effortless affair.

The pair of Guild Proprietary humbucking pickups installed in this guitar deliver thick and smooth tones, well suited to a wide range of genres and playing styles. There is plenty of warmth and roundness in the neck position, perfect for solo tones or shimmering clean sounds. The bridge position has a brighter voicing, meaning that you can easily cut through the mix with biting rhythm tones, or achieve a twangy clean sounds for country and blue licks. The simple control layout offers comprehensive control of your sound without being intrusive to the playing experience, whilst the push/pull coil split feature adds extra versatility for the player to explore.
