Well-grown and massive sound! Westerly factory-made D-55!"

The D-55, Guild's flagship dreadnought model, was once used by Yosui Inoue in Japan and Dewey Bunnell in the U.S. In 1987, production was discontinued immediately after the name was changed to D-65, but was revived in 1990.
It was originally 25 1/2 scale, but after its revival, this particular model uses 25 5/8 scale. The G-shield inlay on the headstock and the V-block inlay on the fingerboard have been carried over, creating a high-end look. Currently, U.S.A. Guilds are made in Oxnard, California, but this one was made in Westerly, Rhode Island. Compared to the current model, it is heavier and has a more profound sound.
The guitar has been refretted, the nut has been raised, and two cracks on the top have been fixed (one on the first string side from the side of the fingerboard to the sound hole, and the other on the pickguard edge between the second and third strings) at a repair store we are affiliated with. There are some dents, scratches, weather checks, partial paint clouding and deterioration, paint peeling at the head butt ends and sound hole edges, dulling and peeling of the plating on metal parts, and a history of saddle replacement, but these are all within the range of use and aging commensurate with the age of the instrument.
The neck is in proper condition. The truss rod has been confirmed to operate more than 60 degrees to the left and right, but the tightening direction feels a little hard to turn. Both playability and sound are perfect.
It has a very rich sound. The balance between the bass, which resonates in the belly when picking, and the treble, which resonates gently but firmly in the ear, is exquisite. The sustain is also sufficient. This guitar has both power and flexibility. Guild's products are relatively inexpensive compared to rival brands' products. We recommend this guitar.

「良く育った重厚なサウンド！ウェスタリー工場製D-55！」

ギルドのドレッドノートのフラッグシップ・モデル、D-55。かつて日本では井上陽水、海外ではアメリカのデューイ・バネルらが使用したことで知られるようになりました。1987年、D-65と名前を変えた直後に製造が中止されますが、1990年に復活しました。
当初は25 1/2スケールでしたが、復活後の当個体は25 5/8スケールが採用されています。ヘッドスットクのGシールド・インレイ、指板のVブロック・インレイは受け継がれ、高級感を醸し出しています。現在はカリフォルニア州オックスナードで生産されるU.S.A.製ギルドですが、こちらはロード・アイランド州ウェスタリーで生産された物です。現行品と比べるとずっしりとした重量を感じさせますが、サウンドも重厚です。
当店提携先のリペア・ショップにて、リフレット、ナットの嵩上げ、二箇所のトップのクラック修正(1弦側指板脇からサウンド・ホールにかけてと、2弦と3弦の間のピックガード縁部)をいたしました。打痕、引っ掻き傷、ウェザー・チェック、部分的な塗膜の曇りや劣化、ヘッド突端やサウンド・ホールの縁の塗膜の剥げ、金属部品のメッキのくすみや剥げ、サドル交換歴などが確認できますが、年式相応の使用感、経年変化の範囲と言えるでしょう。
ネックの状態は適正です。トラス・ロッドは左右60度以上の動作確認済ですが、締め方向は若干回し心地が固く感じます。演奏性、サウンドともに申し分ありません。
非常に豊かに鳴ってくれます。ピッキング時に腹にズンと響く低音と、耳に優しくもしっかり響く高音のバランスが絶妙です。サスティンも十分。力強さとしなやかさを兼ね備えたギターです。ギルド製品はライバル・ブランド製品と比較すると比較的お求めやすい価格なのも魅力。お勧めの一本です。
