All solid woods - solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides. There are signs of use, it's been well played but the finish on this guitar does well at hiding marks. Structurally sound and a fantastic player with great projection and a warm but bright tone. Set up with 'optimal' action. This has been my only steel-string guitar for a 3-4 years now and it is a top-notch player, perfectly set up. Under-saddle pickup, which isn't the original but a new one installed for me by a local guitar tech. Comes with original Guild hardcase - a real looker within itself!
