Hello everybody!
As being a very busy writer and listener and answerer on the "acoustic - home-of the flat top"-forum in Let´s Talk Guild, this
is my first time writing on the archtop-pages.
As a Rickenbacker 12-string semi-acoustic-owner(high end 360/12-v64), I am, as most of you know, priviliged to play an instrument, known for its magical tone, and likewise magical history, laying down shimmer wherever needed on my compositions when recording for my album.
As a Rickenbacker 12-string semi acoustic-owner I am, as most of you also know, playing an instrument that is almost impossible to tune correctly, (at least with professional set up but no mods done), and a very narrow neck for a long-fingered man like me...
As an owner of several Westerly-made Guild acoustics, knowing of the superior build quality at Guild Guitars(even when most other manufacturers were on the downside), I have sometimes dreamed of owning a semi acoustic Guild 12 -string...but I did not think there were any made...but was not sure...then I saw this ebay-auction:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Guild-T50-12-st ... 2c698246c4
Does any of you know what model this is, its history, and if it can do the Ric-thing for me but in its own character?
and what is it worth?
Thanks for advice
