Back in the 90's I picked up an X-700 at a fairly reasonable price because frankly it was just plain cool.
I was in a band playing classic rock and blues at the time and also doing quite a bit of acoustic side gigs.
It was so cool but because it wasn't getting much play back then I regretfully had to sell for monetary reasons.
This was my first true love affair with Guild Electrics. It was all about timing. It was just the wrong time to own it
and I just couldn't afford to keep it. It was truely a fine guitar and I wish I was able to have held on to it.
Here's a pic I found on the web of what that guitar looked like.

Mine was pretty amber like this:

Those alligator cases they came in were real nice :mrgreen:
But amazingly there are still some mint ones left out there:

Anyone else regretting a Guild let go in the past?
