The Guild BT-240E Baritone builds on Guild’s legendary Jumbo Acoustic Guitar tradition, now coming in at the baritone register for a moody, deeply-resonant soundscape. The Satin Natural finish has been applied to the top, back, sides and neck, while Guild’s archback design both increases volume and reduces weight. Below the surface, a discreet Guild/Fishman Sonitone pickup system gives you reliable amplified tone, without interrupting the guitar’s vintage look.

The Guild BT-240E is now available from Merchant City Music, online and in our Glasgow store. Every instrument we sell receives a rigorous check over and full professional setup, ensuring you receive the best possible example. We offer fast and secure shipping to the UK, Europe and Worldwide.

Guild BT-240E Westerly Archback - Solid Sitka Spruce top with Arched Mahogany back

Jumbo tone with deep, moody richness, the BT-240E Baritone offers a gorgeous layering of low-end timbre for a unique and mysterious sound. Combining Guild’s historically large jumbo body shape and their legacy of pressed back construction, the BT-240E boasts a deep, full-frequency Baritone voice to add character to any song.

The arched mahogany back projects crisp low frequencies, while the solid spruce top provides a balanced delivery. The baritone is tuned B-E-A-D-F#-b, 5 steps down from a standard guitar. Great for filling in an ensemble or for playing standalone, the BT-240E Baritone is a great addition to any player’s arsenal.
