The Guild S-100 Polara Kim Thayil Signature Electric Guitar is a tribute to Kim’s beloved ’78 S-100, meticulously crafted with a Mahogany body and neck, complete with the iconic Guild 70’s large headstock. It pays homage to Soundgarden’s legacy with features like the “Badmotorfinger” back cover and “King Animal” truss rod cover. The bound Rosewood fingerboard boasts Pearloid block inlays for added elegance. This model sports a sleek Black gloss finish with gold hardware, capturing the essence of grunge.
Kim’s signature model is designed for stability and ease of use, featuring Grover Original Rotomatics® tuners. The Guild HB-1 Humbuckers with Alnico II Magnets offer warm yet articulate timbre reminiscent of the ’70s S-100 Polara. These pickups cut through the mix beautifully, and a phase switch, accurate to vintage spec, enhances tonal versatility.
This guitar celebrates Guild’s 70th anniversary, encapsulating Kim’s distinctive style and connection to the S-100 Polara, making it a fitting choice for musicians who appreciate both classic and contemporary tones.
