My Local guitar shop got a bunch of new Guilds in and I had only a short time to play them while someone else was banging away on a Rainsong :roll:
F50R...wow...beautiful and deep sound...just as it should be!...The open tuners were a bit unusual looking to me but they work fantastic...very smooth and the string responded to any tiny movement of the tuning knob.
D55...nice and smooth... very even tone across all spectrums.
D50 Bluegrass Special...my favorite...bigger sound than the D55...sounded like a guitar that had already been aged and had that big open sound to it.
One of them had very wide grain on the top (about 3/8")...I think it was one of the D50's
This was a very brief encounter with them but just thought I would pass it on...I was very impressed and think the fit and finish was top notch and the necks were easy to play.
It's nice to see this kind of sound and quality being made available again.
