D-TAR™ Wave-Length™ Pickup and Preamp System with Load 'N
Lock™ Battery Access.
The Wave-Length combines a thin, piezo under-saddle transducer with an 18v, low-noise, high
input impedance preamp, to create a system with twice the dynamic range of typical 9v
systems. The 18v preamp is powered by two “AA” batteries and a voltage converter. With 18
volts, the signal has more headroom, so hard strumming won’t distort as easily. The preamp
also has an input for a second source, like a magnetic pickup or a soundboard transducer.
Two adjustable trim pots, one for low frequency shelving and one for high frequency
shelving, allow you to fine tune and “set and forget” the bass and treble frequencies to
optimize the Wave-Length for your instrument’s size and shape; enabling you transparently
amplify the natural timbre of your acoustic guitar with minimal coloration. The soundhole
mounted Volume and Tone controls give the ultimate in final control your tonal palette.
But perhaps the coolest part of the system is D-TAR’s new Load ‘N Lock
system, which allows quick and easy “AA” batteries changes. Just unscrew
the endpin “collar,” remove the old batteries, and pop in the new ones. A quarter turn of
the collar is all you need to lock them in place. |

Nothing sings out as bold and true as a
Guild jumbo acoustic guitar. They are the original Guild flat-tops, first manufactured in
Manhattan in 1954. From the beauty of the spruce and the elegance of the rosewood to the
depth of the nitrocellulose lacquer finish, Guild proudly stands behind their quality materials.
If you like the projection of a real jumbo acoustic, these guitars are for you.
In 1965, Guild offered its popular maple F-50 in a rosewood version. It had a
completely different sound and warmer tone than its maple sibling, and it has been an
instrument of choice for players such as Bonnie Raitt, Bryan Adams and Dan Hicks. Like
those classic guitars, the new F-50R with D-TAR™ Pickup System features a solid rosewood
back and sides with the same vintage specs as its predecessor, a 4.8”-deep body, “X”
bracing pattern, a rosewood bridge and the D-TAR® Wave-Length™ Load ’N Lock™ pickup
system.
