1979 Guild X-175 Manhattan HH Electric Archtop - Blonde

The Guild X-175 Manhattan HH is a distinctive guitar known for its unique design and sound. It features a semi-hollow body, which helps create a warm, resonant tone suitable for various styles, particularly jazz, blues, and rock. The "HH" designation indicates it has two humbucker pickups, offering a fuller, richer sound compared to single-coil pickups.

The X-175 is often praised for its playability and aesthetic appeal, with elegant curves and high-quality finishes. It typically comes with features like a floating bridge and stylish binding, making it not only a functional instrument but also a visual standout.

This Natural-finished example from 1979 is in stellar condition, with none of the binding rot typical of this era of Guild, and only minor play-wear and finish checking that belie its 45 years of age!
