Has anyone seen a P-250E in the wild? I don’t see it on the website but saw a listing on an auction site. Looks like an homage to a Gibson L-00
I see it on the Guitar Center/Musician's Friend sites. Maybe an exclusive?
Based on the P-240 Memoir, the P-250E Memoir is a small-bodied parlor guitar built with a solid spruce top and pau ferro back and sides. Modified with a 14 fret-to-body neck like the DS-240, the P-250E offers a brighter tone, with more attack as well as better access to upper frets. A vintage-inspired mother of pearl rosette and Guild Script Logo pay homage to the classic styling of instruments from the 1920s, while a Guild Fishman-designed GT-1 pickup system delivers stage-ready performance.
There’s a vibrato Surfliner?NAMM is coming up in a couple of weeks and maybe this model leaked out early. We saw it happen with the vibrato Surfliner.
If it's a "200 series" guitar, I would assume that wood is laminated?The new P-250E Memoir in VSB (Vintage Sunburst) is based on the P-240 Memoir.

If it does not say solid it is not solid. General rule. And it was never different on arched back guitars.... The top is solid and sides and back are laminated. US made archbacks have also at least a laminated back, just don't get those comments...If it's a "200 series" guitar, I would assume that wood is laminated?
"Vaporware"?
No, I'd say wait for NAMM 2023. (April 13-15)"Vaporware"?
What I find slightly odd is that they have replaced the three rocker switches with a standard Strat' style five position switch on this, but on the HH model they use two rocker switches, rather than a three way toggle switch. Using individual on / off switches gives additional pickup combinations on the three pickup guitar, but not with the two pickup version

Yes. I'm not so much surprised that they have used the five position switch here, after all it is a well proven and popular design option. I'm more surprised that they stuck with the rocker switches for the HH version, rather than switch to a standard toggle switchVive la différence!
