Description
Cosmetic Condition: Super cool vintage vibe with a fabulous resonant tone & sweet action. The guitar is all original aside from the toggle switch cap. These Guilds are totally underrated & should be worth a lot more than they are. This one plays & sounds fantastic! There are various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches, light weather checking & some finish wear - mostly on the back of the neck. Overall it's in great shape with a gorgeous patina & rich tone.
Neck: Medium-profile & nicely rounded mahogany neck with aged cream binding & black side-dots. Very dark rosewood fingerboard with silver dot inlays. Original frets show some light wear, but have plenty of life in them. Guild & Chesterfield mother of pearl headstock inlays with Starfire truss rod cover. Nickel Grover tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod is in good working condition.
Body: Double-bound, hollow mahogany body with Florentine cutaway & dual F-holes. The original cherry finish is very strong & vibrant. Guild-logo Bigsby tremolo tailpiece with floating compensated bridge & nickel hardware. Black stairstep pickguard with gold Guild logo. The pickguard is in great shape with no cracks or breaks. Guitar weighs 6 lbs 7 oz.
Pickups: Original Guild humbuckers with black bezels. Bridge - 6.79K ohms; Neck - 7.24K ohms. Dual volume & tone controls with original Guild knobs; 3-way toggle switch with replaced cap. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Original hardshell case included. The case is a bit rough on the outside with some tears in the tolex, but structurally it's very sound.
