Description
Up for sale is this wonderful 1965 Guild M-20 acoustic guitar in natural mahogany. This is the second M-20 I’ve owned, and I have to say it is one of the best sounding acoustics I’ve every played. It has a really unique sound that is amazingly warm and rich. It has a fuller sound than most dreadnought guitars or larger acoustics.
The body has a beautiful rich reddish mahogany color and it is made of solid mahogany on the top, sides and bottom. The neck is also mahogany with a rosewood fingerboard and bridge. The neck is straight and the frets are in great condition.The guitar comes with a vintage 1960s hard case, but I’m not sure if it is original or not (see pictures).

Condition: Overall very good condition. There are very few marks or scratches on the guitar. The guitar shows some minor wear along the back edges.
- The bridge was separating slightly and was re-glued. This is not noticeable in the pictures and has no affect on how it plays or sounds.
- The bottom board where it attaches to the bottom side was separated and re-glued at some time in its past. It is barely noticeable and may not be noticeable in the pictures.
- Bridge pins are newer.
- Slight bubbling or wrinkle in the plastic black cover on the headstock near the D-string peg (see pictures).
The guitar has been setup with new strings and sounds great!
