Exquisite! Enjoy, Dan. Where's the checking? I don't see it in the pix.

Thanks, Dan. So minor! Outstanding.

Of the acoustics I've owned, and it's fewer than ten, this F50 sounds most similar to my 2021 Gibson J-45 spruce/mahogany with its jangle and sustain. But just a bit more special, which I'll chalk up to age, longer scale, and its Guildness. It really doesn't sound much like my other spruce/maples (Oxnard F55 and 2022 Gibson SJ-200).

Will I be scolded on LTG if I put an LR Baggs Anthem in this F50?

Beautiful guitar and oh that sounds.

No, of course not! It's your guitar to with as you please. But that doesn't mean we won't be judgmental and talk behind your back.

the main thing we ever care about is the truss rod cover.

Very nice. New Hartford made great playing and sounding guitars. Ain’t nobody going to scold you… Made to be Played!

You might get some raised eyebrows but if that is what hast to be done so it is Made To Be Played no one's going to get too bent out of shape about what you do to your guitar.

Where you may get pushback is from the folks who don't like that system or think there is a better alternative.

 

[Westerly Wood]

I say go with what pup works for you!

So that’s where my JF55-12 used to live. Wow! Very cool. Glad I got “La Gran Guitarra ” from a person that provides a good home for his kids ehh Guitars!!!! Enjoy this and the other F guitar that hopefully will be arriving soon.

And not all of us really even care about that, or maybe it's just me.
