Introducing the Guild B-140E Natural: Unplugged Brilliance in the Westerly Collection

Series: Westerly Collection

When it's time to go "unplugged," the choice is clear—Guild. In the world of acoustic bass guitars, Guild has carved its own legacy, championed by pros on the biggest stages. Think of Krist Novoselic's unforgettable performance with Nirvana Unplugged or Nathan East's melodious lines during Clapton Unplugged—Guild has always been the top pick.

Guild redefined acoustic bass guitars in the mid-1970s when they introduced the B-50, inspired by their ever-popular jumbo shape. The B-140E Natural continues this storied tradition, delivering an impressively loud and resonant tone that's perfect for any stage. What sets it apart is the Guild/Fishman BT-1 Pickup System, ensuring your music can be easily amplified without compromising its natural beauty.
