The Guild M-65 Freshman, introduced in 1958, is a distinctive hollow body guitar with a simpler design compared to its counterpart, the M-75. It features a sunburst or blonde finish depending on whether it has a maple or mahogany top. The body is crafted from mahogany for the back and sides, and the neck is also mahogany with a set-neck construction. The rosewood fingerboard, adorned with dot inlays, complements the guitar’s 24.75″ scale length and 22 frets.
