In the early 1970s, Guild Guitars introduced Madeira, a line of instruments manufactured in Japan. The series was modeled after existing Guild designs and made to be both high-quality and affordable, and one particular Madeira ended up being the at-home songwriting partner of reggae legend Bob Marley. Last fall, Guild introduced the A-20 Marley, a guitar designed to match the instrument Marley owned and played in the \u201970s. In order to create a modernized replica of the guitar, Guild tracked down vintage Madeira models, seeking to copy most of the original details, while improving on certain aspects. I put the A-20 Marley<\/a> through its paces and found it to be not just a cool collectible but an excellent guitar for the price.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
