Can anyone tell me what 50's era Guild archtops are selling for these days? I really prefer single coil pickups and am curious as to how much they're going for.
Thanks

I'd say $1,500-2,500 depending on number of pickups, presence of cutaway, condition and originality (and how good a deal it is). More if you're shopping M-75s, X-375s and X-500s.
I'd think you should be able to pick up a reasonably clean full depth '50s dual pick up cutaway for around $2k.

Don't mean to disappoint you for missing it, but there was a beauty of an X500 that sold on eBay recently for just over $2000 - http://www.ebay.com/itm/120775845639?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Seller said it had a replaced neck from the same time period but I don't know where that comes from, it could be original from the looks of it.
My point is they are out there if you have time to wait for the right one. Also, those of us who paid more for one can grind our teeth a bit :x
