Hi Guys,
Longtime no speak. All sorts going on. Too much to mention.
However.....I am looking at a JF30-12 in sunburst finish and it is advertised as a AR.What AR??? I assume this is the finish. Antique Red?????
Can anyone confirm for this poor lost soul? It is a 1996 Westerly.
All the best and thanks, Steve.

Maybe the "R" (instead of A"B"--Antique Burst) is misread...or poorly written

Thankyou gentlemen.
What threw me a bit was that the picture shows a very red/cherry sunburst not what I would call a antique burst which I would expect to be more brown.

The picture of the one I bought showed the same 'red/cherry', but when I saw it in person, it actually looked brown like an AB should; and when I played it ...... oh my!

Here's what was advertised:

That looks exactly like the one I bought in July at the Philly Guitar Show. Bought it from New Hope Music. They had quite the selection of Guilds on display. I'm hoping to go to the Fall Philly Show in November. There is always a possibility that another fine Guild will follow me home.
