The search goes on. Saw a Guild Arcos Series AO-3CE on Reverb. Price seems amazingly cheap.
The arched back design intrigues me. Would prefer to be able to get it at GC for the worry free return option, but the price on Reverb is low enough that I might be able to risk it. It is a refurb model (never played according to ad) I worry about that. My understanding is that it could be no big reason as to why it was in refurb, or could be something major, so that is worrying a little.
It has a bolt-on neck. After reading Ray's horror story with the CV-1, that doesn't make me feel great. I know this was during the Fender period, but actually everything I read about the MIM Guilds seems to be favorable, and the guys who bought them (at least that I can tell) seem to really like them.
Anyone have any opinions on them they can share?
