Aw, nice! They don't come much more minty than that! A real beauty, and apparently an early Antique 'Burst as well, before that they were "Tobacco Sunburst."
Nice find...smart purchase. That is a great looking D-25. Superb!
Tell that to my wife
Does she play guitar? Mrs. Fro's starter Guild was a D-25....
Welcome aboard with the rest of us Guild maniacs. That is one nice guitar you got there. How did you find it? Craig's List? It looks like it came from a time capsule! And remember, you can never be too thin, rich or own too many Guilds!
cheers,
Tony
WELCOME TO LTG, Happy Birthday, and congrats on your new Guild.
Lots of love for D25s around here so you're in good company. :encouragement:
Welcome aboard Fats.
It sounds as good as it looks. A VERY lucky find on Craigslist.
Does anyone have experience with guitar humidifiers? Are they necessary? Midwest winters are very dry. Recommendations?
Thanks!
Congrats, that burst D25 is a very fine purchase!
To humidify a guitar, I use a damp sponge (wrung out, not dripping wet) in an open snack-size ziplock baggie, tucked either into the case or between adjacent strings at the soundhole (if there isn't enough room in the case).
Beware the screw-cap Oasis humidifiers. I recently learned that not all guitar cases have enough room to accommodate that tall cap, between the guitar strings & the case lid.
wow, what a beautiful first Guild! love that burst too.
congrats!
question re the strings listed on the original booklet, L-350 Guild PB strings. those would have been light gauge right Al? and i believe we found out they would have been essentially D'Addario PB12s (EJ16s)?
never mind, googled it: https://reverb.com/item/1288706-guild-l-350-phosphor-bronze-guitar-strings-12-53
