Well then I think this is a pretty clear indication you should pass. Never buy from a seller that won't respond to legit questions.

All's well that ends well. I decided to let that Guild go, and soon after I found a M-20E in mint condition on Reverb for slightly more than 1000$. Priority FedEx shipping was included, so I received it in less than two days from the US!

It's a jewel of a guitar. Light, incredibly resonant for a small-body one and it really plays like butter. The LRBaggs Anthem pickup makes it even more versatile.
C16 means California (=Oxnard) 2016 made. Headstock veneer, truss rod cover and tuners (or tuner buttons) are not original anymore.
