Looks like a bolt-on neck with an adjustable truss rod at the pick-up end of the neck. Very interesting guitar - Thanks for sharing!
Hello,bobouz
Thank you for having interest.
That's right, this guitar has a bolt-on neck and the truss rod is adjusted at the neck end. There are four types of Liverpool series, my guitar is the thin body "Liverpool 67 Special", and the guitar in the YouTube video is the deep body "Liverpool Deluxe". There was also with simplified hardware "Liverpool Jr" and solid body "Liverpool'69 Custom".

Played an all mahogany Martin with a bolt on neck. I really liked it. $1,699 at Rudy's, Scarsdale. It may be MIM... can't remember. I played a few.

Well, I took out the BR yesterday from its case, strings dead but was reminded how crystal clear, resonant, vintage, old wood and warm it sounds. I was just fingerpicking and hand strumming a psalm , capo 2, simple G shape chord progression, but wow is this just not an excellent example of an old time Guild dread. Yet, 30 minutes in my right shoulder also reminded me why I moved on from dreads earlier this year. I wasn’t sad at all, as I got this old 1971 all hog flatback ear marked for Abby. It will be a great first Guild for her to learn on. In a few years. And it’s the guitar we bring down to Sukkot in October. I got a friend there who basically keeps it for the whole week lol, he really digs it, and I and Nic play it the one night during this feast we lead worship. It’s got a k&k and is just a plug and play never fails champ of a guitar.

Then I grabbed the F30r and all my pain vanished. It’s quite remarkable.

Yeah, sorry to hear about the shoulder pain, Woody. Thanks, though, for nother opportunity to see that great old D-25 in your hands.

Might be time for a haircut, buddy. Of course, that's coming from a guy with no hair (a.k.a. hair envy)!

Woody, have you tried -- or do you have -- a stool to play on rather than couch? I find most guitars to be uncomfortable for couch pickin'... My Guild stool takes away most of the discomfort.
I will try this out in a few weeks. Thanks Chaz!
