Guild M-120 Nat Westerly Reviews

Guild M-120Nat Westerly

The best small parlor guitar I‘ve owned. Sounds great, looks great! I sanded the bridge a touch and it plays real easy with 11 - 50 gauge strings!

very good guitar for the price

It's a nice guitar but not a definitive guitare if you're looking for a professional instrument.

I can say that the one I got is way warmer than other guitars of the same price-range but it lacks a little bit of balance, and precision when I drop the E string.

It sound a lot in the lows/mid-lows which can be very nice, but sometimes a bit too much maybe. The gig bag had the strap in the inside unstitched after couple of weeks.

Resonant

Beautiful resonance from the mahogany guitar. The only issue is that when I received it the pickguard was coming away from the body.

A great little friend!

The sound of the guitar is unbelievable and amazing ! It is mellow and sweet like a lacta chocolate and it is really different and unique , not many guitars with that sound. I would highly recommend to use HD light Elixir and i got to admit that they do work with small body guitars ! Now as far as the sound i have to prepair you , if you want the 100% percent sound of the guitar you got to use your finger or your nails cuz the pick wont do it just as great ( not saying that it would be bad , its actually great with pick too ). One thing that i was not really satisfied with it was the action of the guitar as it came from the factory! I mean it was action for beginners , really low, amazing playability but as soon as you try to play more loud you hear the buzz from the frets and the strings. Apart from that it is an overall amazing purchase , great packaging , a great little gig bag with straps and a little space in the inside and it fits the guitar litterraly like a glove. Overall beautiful guitar with unique sound , great solid body and a heck of a neck. Enjoy it guys

I also own a USA made F30 Guild and some Martins. I have to say that Guild M-120 Westerly guitar for the price is quite impressive. The new Westerly concept works, since it has a different neck compared to the previous M-120 model. The guitar is very responsive and sound has nice airiness. I also like the 1 3/4 neck and the vintage C shape profile neck and 24 7/8 scale. This guitar really feels good for songwriting, playing while sitting on a couch and is very suitable for fingerstyle. I bought it as a go-to guitar, because of the full mahogany body and the specs and it is small to carry. I'm glad I did :)
