The Guild S-100 electric guitar was a lightweight solid-body guitar made by the Guild Guitar Company. It features two humbucking pickups and its body is styled similarly to a Gibson SG.
In the Grunge era, this guitar was well known as the signature axe of Soundgarden's Kim Thayil.
In the 1970s, a version of this guitar was available from the factory with leaves and acorns carved in relief into the body of the guitar. Joan of Arc's Tim Kinsella has been known to play one of these along with Mat Bethancourt of The Kings of Frog Island and Cherry Choke. Scott Avett of The Avett Brothers occasionally breaks out one as well. The S-100 is also well known as the choice guitar for guitarist Chris McCaughan of the punk rock band The Lawrence Arms
