I picked this one up a few months ago. I haven't been playing it much but I took it down off the wall yesterday and am having a hard time putting it down now. It is one of the lightest Guilds I've ever owned, it has a huge voice along with that all Hog sweetness and it stays in tune for months at a time.
I won't say it's better than my Westerly D 25's just because I hate trying (and don't really think it's even fair) to compare similar guitars from different times and made in different places. I will say, this D 20 will take no back seat to any comparable Guild regardless of where it was made.
I got mine at a ridiculously low price which makes it even better to me anyway. If any of you are in the market for an all Hog lower priced Guild I will say you could do a whole lot worse than the Oxnard D 20, assuming it's anything like mine. Just my opinion of course.
