The Story

M-20 1968 Natural Mahogany

This '60s era Guild M-20 is somewhat of a hidden gem of the Guild lineup, but recently popularized by Nick Drake. This small body Guild is their answer to the 0-17, it's an all solid mahogany guitar with no binding and austere features, but it's extremely resonant, toneful, and lightweight! The slim shorter scale mahogany neck is topped with a rosewood fingerboard, and the guitar features a rosewood straight line bridge, open gear 3-on-a-strip tuners, and a tortoise pickguard. This M-20 shows it's age cosmetically, but is structurally sound with only finish wear, light fret wear, and a bigger scratch (not a crack) on the top. Nice and easy action and great sound! It includes an aftermarket gig bag.
