The Guild® GAD-JF30 was designed utilizing the jumbo maple body that has been in the Guild® line since 1954. We use solid flamed maple for the back and sides, a solid spruce top that features scalloped bracing, and then joined the one piece mahogany neck with the traditional dovetail neck joint. For other appointments on the GAD-JF-30 we use ebony for the fingerboard and bridge. We continued the use of ebony for the pearl dot inlayed bridge and strap pins, then added wood bindings, and Grover Rotomatic tuning gears. For the best in tone and intonation, we installed a bone nut and bone compensated saddle. For the finishing touches we inlayed classic pearl fingerboard inlays and then pack the instrument in a wooden arched case. A guitar worthy of representing over 50 years of fine guitar building by Guild® Guitars.
