Musician and instrument retailer Alfred
Dronge (1911-1972) founded Guild in
New York in 1952. The first guitars from
his small workshop were handmade
with expensive rare woods, costly
lacquers and the thorough attention
to detail that could only come from
an experienced musician. New York
was home to most of the nation’s top
jazz, studio and touring guitarists, and
Dronge and his staff always listened
carefully to their suggestions.
The name itself, “Guild,” came from
the master craft guilds of the Middle
Ages, which only the most highly
skilled craftsmen were permitted to
join. Today’s Guild guitars reflect that
same devotion to excellence, with fine
acoustic instruments that express the
highest standards of artistry in wood
craftsmanship and guitar making.
Now as always, Guild guitars are
fashioned from hand-selected woods
chosen by discerning buyers who travel
the world in search of them.
Today, Guild guitars are still
handmade, and quality, innovation and
service are still the paramount goals of
the entire Guild staff. Taking extreme
pride in every feature of every guitar,
Guild and all its artisans are confident
that you’ll share this pride—in the
ownership of your new guitar.
