AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Guild D-40 Traditional is a masterclass in classic acoustic guitar design, embodying the features that have made the D-40 a beloved staple in Guild's lineup. This exceptional dreadnought is crafted with a high-grade solid Sitka spruce top and solid African mahogany back and sides, delivering a powerful, nuanced sound with outstanding responsiveness. The addition of scalloped Adirondack braces enhances the guitar’s tonal depth and projection.
The D-40 Traditional boasts a three-piece mahogany and walnut neck, which is topped with an Indian rosewood fingerboard. The neck is joined to the body with an authentic dovetail joint, ensuring superb playability and stability. The guitar’s classic aesthetics are complemented by a tortoiseshell pickguard, rosette, and binding, with a genuine mother-of-pearl Guild peak and Chesterfield logo inlaid on the headstock. Nickel-plated open gear tuners provide a vintage touch while ensuring precise tuning.
Finished in a lustrous gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, the D-40 Traditional enhances the beauty and resonance of its premium tonewoods. Each guitar is accompanied by a hand-signed, numbered certificate of authenticity and ships with a Guild humidified hardshell case, guaranteeing protection and proper maintenance.
Proudly made in the USA, the Guild D-40 Traditional is a testament to Guild’s storied heritage and dedication to craftsmanship.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
Please note that returns will not be accepted for variations in timber grain / colouring, finish variations and parts colouring, unless there is a fault with the instrument. If you have any questions at all regarding an instrument's appearance, just drop us a line - we're always happy to send photos, and if we have more than one instrument in stock you'll be able to choose the exact guitar that you receive!
