GUILD Polara S-100 Kim Thayl Signature Guitar
The GUILD Polara S-100 Kim Thayil is a premium solid body electric guitar designed for dynamic performance, tonal authority, and exceptional build quality. Crafted with a solid mahogany body that delivers rich sustain, powerful mids, and tight lows, it’s ideal for players who demand articulate tone and unrelenting presence. The mahogany neck and bound rosewood fretboard provide exceptional playability and a smooth, resonant feel for both lead and rhythm work.
Outfitted with a HH pickup configuration featuring Guild HB-1 humbuckers, the Polara S-100 Kim Thayil signature model produces thick, articulate tones with vintage bite and modern power. Its gloss black finish, asymmetrical double-cutaway design, and intuitive control layout ensure comfort and expressive freedom across any playing situation. A faithful tribute to the Soundgarden guitarist's weapon of choice, this guitar is built to command the stage.
