Hi everybody ! I haven't been posting for a long, long time, but 'm a longtime member and reader of the forum, and I had to share this with you guys : I've been working in a large music retail buisiness here in Belgium, and have been invited to visit the factory with a group of European dealers : ) As a longtime Guild fan and player (play them daily, almost never play anything else live), I kind of re-introduced Guild in our shops, and I must say, the new top of the line acoustics are fantastic guitars so it will be interesting to see how and where they are being built. I also have some questions about the current marketing and development of the brand, that I think we all are interested in. Fascinating thread and discussion about the role of FMIC in the last episode of Guild history in another recent thread here, by the way.
Dang, I'm just excited about the trip (only my second one to the USA) and I would love to take along some questions you folks might have for the people of the new factory. So bring it on. I'll be over there from november 8 to 11.

Caveman,

I heard this will be quite a blowout for you guys. I hope you enjoy your time in New Hartford.

The Let's Talk Guild folks are having our 2nd tour/gathering with the factory folks in a couple of weeks. The event is called "Let's Meet Guild 2," and you can read about it in the Member's Only section.

Welcome (back) to Guild.

Strawberry Steve on the GDP, right? Of course we remember you (at least us old farts)!

I saw the factory last year and got to play a couple. Had a great time and sure that you will too!

Ah, Default, I didn't know you were on GDP too ! Kind of hectic there compared to LTG, from about what age would I become a genuine geezer ? :lol:

I'll check out the thread on Let's Meet Guild 2 to see what you guys are up to. Without a doubt a very knowledgeable (is that a word) group you'll be. But I'll try to carry the torch of Guild enlightment among our group of dealers, and face FMIC as a true fan of the brand. And when are they going to restart building those electrics ????

Geezerdom is an attitude, not a age.

Somebody said that to me, I can't remember who. ;-(
