1964 Guild Capri CE-100D
BY SETH HANSEN
As a company that never shied away from the cutting edge
customer demand, Guild Guitars
released many new models in the
1960s designed with the changing
popular music scene in mind. The
folk music craze in the early ’60s
spurred Guild to create some very
memorable flattop acoustic models,
such as the D40 and F212. As
folk gradually morphed into and
shaped other forms of pop and rock
in the mid to late ’60s, Guild met
the demand for high-quality semi-
hollow guitars with the Starfire line
and created bold solid bodies like
the Polara. But even in the wake of
their success in the flattop and semi-
hollow market, Guild continued to
expand and refine the models that
made them famous in the ’50s—
archtop jazz guitars.
