Now, in honor of Guild's 70th anniversary, this limited edition model pays homage to the iconic D-55 with premium features and exquisite craftsmanship. Crafted under the supervision of Guild Master Luthier Chuck Sanzone, each of the 70 guitars in this special run is a testament to Guild's commitment to quality and innovation. The GSR D-55 showcases Guild's signature headstock, adorned with mother-of-pearl Guild Peak and G-shield inlays over an exotic Madagascar Rosewood face. The top of the guitar features an ornate Abalone rosette and matching purfling inlay, crafted from aged Adirondack Spruce with hand-scalloped Adirondack Spruce braces for exceptional resonance and projection. The back and sides are crafted from exotic Madagascar Rosewood, adding stunning figured grain lines to the body. Traditional hide glue construction ensures optimal tonal transfer and resonance, while the fully bound Ebony fingerboard and mahogany neck with a Walnut center seam strip provide exceptional playability and comfort.

Additional features include gold Gotoh open-gear tuners, Evo gold frets, and a dovetail neck joint for added stability and sustain. A hand-sprayed gloss nitrocellulose finish enhances the guitar's resonance, while a specially numbered and signed certificate of authenticity and a soundhole cut-out hand signed by the Guild USA build team add to its collectibility. Each guitar is accompanied by Guild's premium humidified hard-shell case, ensuring its protection during storage and transport.
