About this listing
The precedent for hollow body aesthetic and tone, the X-175 Manhattan Special looks as good as it sounds. With its gracefully sculpted and richly resonant hollow body, arched spruce top, and rock-solid three-piece neck, it exemplifies the quality building of the Guild Manhattan models of the 1950s and ‘60s. The secret to this model’s iconic tone lies in the authentic DeArmond Dynasonic neck and bridge pickups, providing crystal clear highs and a full, round low-end - the makings of the iconic tones of rockabilly and blues from the 1950s on forward. Complimenting the tonal pallet of the Dynasonic pickups, the X-175 Manhattan Special features a Guild Vibrato Tailpiece for expressive playing. Other premium features include a fully bound body, neck, F-holes, headstock, mother-of-pearl block fretboard inlays, and a hardshell case.BodyBody Type: Single Cutaway Hollow BodyTop wood: Laminated MapleBody wood: Laminated MapleBody finish: SatinNeckNeck shape: Vintage UNeck wood: MahoganyJoint: Set-inScale length: 24.75"Truss rod: Dual-actionNeck finish: SatinFingerboardMaterial: EbonyRadius: 9.5"Fret size: Medium-jumboNumber of frets: 20Inlays: Dot BlockNut width/material: 1.69 in.
