Outstanding Design, Details, and Sound in a Robust Orchestra

Get the classic, balanced, one-of-a-kind tone of an orchestra acoustic guitar with the Guild OM-120. This robust orchestra acoustic guitar features a solid mahogany body for full, rich acoustic tone. A comfortable C-shape mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard offers outstanding response and playability that's ideal for flatpicking and fingerpicking alike. Orchestra-size acoustic guitars like the OM-120 are renowned for their unique, balanced tone that makes them ideal for both live solo performance and recording. The OM-120 is part of Guild's famous Westerly series acoustic guitars, a favorite among guitarists here at Sweetwater.

A legendary series

The Westerly series of acoustic guitars taps into Guild's second chapter after relocating the company’s design and build headquarters from New Jersey to a Rhode Island furniture factory. This larger, improved space afforded a new direction and dedication to improving their already excellent craftsmanship. And the OM-120 is part of that tradition as it reflects impeccable build details and fine appointments ­— all with a focus on improved tone and durability. A genuine rosewood bridge and real bone nut and saddle enhance tone and resonance of the OM-120. In addition, scalloped spruce X-bracing provides additional resonance and sustain enhancement as well as ensuring long-term durability.

Guild OM-120 Orchestra Acoustic Guitar Features:

  • All-mahogany orchestra acoustic built with detailed appointments and expert craftsmanship
  • Rosewood fingerboard offers outstanding response and playability that's ideal for flatpicking and fingerpicking alike
  • Genuine rosewood bridge and real bone nut and saddle enhance tone and resonance
  • Scalloped spruce X-bracing provides additional resonance and sustain enhancement

beautiful guitar, beautiful sound

So very happy with this guitar! I was debating between it and the dreadnought version and decided to go with the smaller size for easier finger style playing. It responds well to finger picking and is relatively light to hold. It's extremely playable -- the neck is thin and smooth and the action is nice and low without any buzzing. It really sings -- just a lovely tone and warm resonance. And it's absolutely beautiful in person -- warm, rich wood with elegant detailing in mother-of-pearl around the sound hole and on the head stock. Thanks to Adam Trudel for all of his help in the purchase process and Riley James for an excellent setup!

Excellent Guild om120

I am a Guild person, not the outrageous priced Taylor's / Martin, etc . Those who are negative with the reviews, don't have a clue about sound and playability +$$
I have a D-25 1983 Guild, an Ovation Elite . I love them both, they are my treasures ,but the Guild 120 is the easiest for strumming and finger picking, beautiful guitar too. They didn't cheep out on the quality wood, action and sound . So anyone who goes by reviews ,ignore the negative ones a get yourself one of these. Believe me I've been playing for over 50 years. I'm old but wise and right

Awesome guitar!

Everything from headstock to strap button is wonderful about this guitar. Beautiful mother of pearl appointments on the headstock and the Rosette. Extremely comfortable neck, and beautiful, mid range tones.
I'm absolutely shocked this guitar does not cost more if I didn't know any better I would say it's at least a $ instrument. Made in China or not. This is a very high-quality guitar and I'm super happy to have it in my lineup.
Sweetwater did a fantastic job as usual with keeping me up to speed on the whole process. My favorite part about them is that they check in with you after all of a sudden done to make sure you're happy. Way to go Sweetwater. You guys knocked it out of the park!

Great

My acoustic is my go to when writing a song so always having one is important for me. This guitar is lightweight but can project very well. The gloss finished feels smooth on my hands, there is not stick. Height of the strings is perfect without having to make any adjustment to bridge. Great for finger picking or strumming. Its not a big body so its very comfortable. In the past I have owned "lower cost" Martin and a Takamine. Both great guitars but this Guild is just better all around. Great materials, feel that you may not find in other brands at this price point.

For electronics....I added a "DeArmond Tone Boss" magnetic pickup and it sounds great.

All I can say is WOW!!!!

I remember several years (almost 30) ago while shopping for a dread, I ran into a Guild D-4, a Guild D-40, and a Guild D-55 in a store..I was amazed at their sound and looks, and though that someday I would have Guild. Met a man later that year who played a Guild also and loved the sound. After several years of loving Martins, I have acquired several dreads including a D-18. Totally different animals than this OM. I was looking for a smaller body all Mahogany with a 1 3/4 nut. Guild had it and Guild had the sound I wanted. The build is fantastic and light along with finish being perfect. It is great flat picked or finger-picked! Simply amazing sound and feel. Oh, did I mention it is beautiful, especially with that head-stock!!!
It has a very warm and sweet sound that is great when sitting on the couch or in the church Sanctuary. The voice is a 5 out of 5 along with the intonation right out of the box. I will remind you that this is NOT a dread, but they have it in a dread body also. I would recommend swapping out the stock plastic bridge pins with a set of Ebony. Ebony pins always seem to bring out the best in Mahogany. The staff was wonderful and patient with as I tried several guitars and had them bring some from the warehouse. Great guitar and a great price for an all solid wood Guitar. I tried the Martin Mahogany offerings in this class also and in my opinion, this Guild tops their 15 series. Guild is not trying to copy Martin and it is a very different guitar than the Martins.
