The Polara has been a standout in the Guild® solidbody electric lineup since the early 1970s—powering Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil’s massive riffs while also being versatile enough to appeal to all types of players. Sporting a striking Vintage Walnut finish and powerful HB-2+ humbuckers, the Polara Limited Night Edition Vintage Walnut blends vintage vibes with modern features and performance.
The Polara Limited Night Edition Vintage Walnut’s dark finish is complemented by its ebony fingerboard, black pickguard, black hardware, uncovered black pickups, black metal domed knobs, black truss rod cover, and dark metal headstock with Guild Peak logo. A pair of high-output HB-2+ humbucking pickups with Alnico V magnets deliver bold tones ranging from warm lows to edgy midrange bite to articulate highs.
The Polara Limited Night Edition Vintage Walnut is a lean, mean, ready-to-rock machine.
