The Guild X175B Manhattan is an exquisitely built hollow body electric guitar with a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece. This Korean built guitar just oozes quality the moment you set eyes on it and that translates to when you first pick it up. It has a decent acoustic tone and a very playable neck with perfectly finished frets.

An extraordinary instrument for the swinging soloist and technician, Guild's X-175B Manhattan is a masterpiece of the guitar maker's art. It presents the same exceptional appointments as its brother, the X-175 Manhattan, including a gracefully sculpted hollow body, rock-solid three-piece neck and electrifying dual single-coil pickups, but also features the addition of a Guild Bigsby vibrato tailpiece and is available in a handsome Blonde finish.
