The Guild Polara Deluxe Vintage Sunburst
FEATURES
- Overview and Body Design
The Polara Deluxe offers an upgraded trim package to the base Polara model, delivering classic aesthetics that recall 1970s design elements with modern enhancements. Where the base Polara model is stripped down, the Polara Deluxe is elevated—including a bound rosewood fingerboard with block inlays, Guild Peak and Chesterfield headstock inlays, Guild compensated stopbar tailpiece, and color options ranging from classic transparent to modern metallic. - HB-2+ Humbucker Pickups
The HB-2+ pickups are modern extensions of the coveted Guild HB-1 oversized humbuckers, built in a traditional size humbucker with Alnico V magnets. These hot-wound HB-2+ pickups bring an assortment of boutique quality tones with loads of character and voice. The Polara Deluxe has traditional Guild pickup covers featuring Guild’s classic dual rail design, with 2x volume, 2x tone controls and push/pull coil splitting for maximum tonal variety. - Mahogany Body with Ultra-Playable Set Neck Design
The Polara Deluxe’s 24-3/4 inch scale length is familiar and friendly to all types of players. A bound rosewood fingerboard and block inlays provide an upgraded look, while the headstock includes Guild’s classic “Peak” and “Chesterfield” inlays. A 12.5 inch radius and vintage soft U neck shape provide comfortable playability up and down the fingerboard. - Vintage Sunburst Gloss Finish
The hand sprayed Vintage Sunburst Gloss Finish option enhances the body, neck and headstock.
