Based
on Bob Marley’s at-home, songwriting guitar, the Guild A-20 Marley is a
worthy tribute to the reggae legend. Many of Marley’s hits through the
seventies were written on his Guild Madeira acoustic guitar. The A-20
Marley reintroduces Marley’s beloved dreadnought to the world along with
a few modern appointments. Built with a solid spruce top and mahogany
back and sides, the full-bodied and powerful tone of this dreadnought
provides Marley fans and songwriters alike with an easy-to-play,
well-balanced acoustic guitar. The C-shaped neck with 25 ½” scale length
allows for a relaxed and comfortable feel. Unique features include a
vintage-correct, flat, round-cornered headstock with vintage Guild
script logo, custom pickguard with Bob Marley signature, and a MARLEY
script inlay on the 12th fret. Additional features include a pau ferro
fingerboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, and a matte polyurethane
finish. Available in Natural. As a continuation of Bob Marley’s love for
music and planet, the guitar includes a premium Marley X Guild gig bag
made from recycled nylon. Additionally, Guild has partnered with One
Tree Planted to plant a tree for every Marley guitar made. The included
booklet contains the history of Marley’s Guild Madeira, first-hand
stories from his family, details on how the A-20 Marley was made, and
official chords for one of Bob Marley’s biggest hits. Three custom
guitar picks display a lion and Guild G-Shield in gold ink. Finally, an
exclusive poster featuring Bob Marley and his original Guild is included
to commemorate the legacy of one of the world’s greatest songwriters.
