Guild style from the ’70s is back and better than ever with the return of the solid-body S-100 guitar. With its solid and slightly offset mahogany body, the new S-100 Polara evokes its esteemed and hard-rocking predecessor of more than 40 years ago. Responsive and versatile, it also features a distinctive 24.75″ scale, rock-solid mahogany neck, a potent pair of “anti-hum” pickups, the classic Cherry red finish and much more.
