Why are D25s all of a sudden so interesting?

[West R Lee]

I'll have what the cat is having, thank you Steff.

Are you referring to the counter at the bottom of the auction pages?

Counter on this one is at 615.

Okay; I guess the Page View counter at the bottom of the auctions are a 'see/not see' option by the seller ... shows on some pages, not on others. I knew sellers were given 'Watch List' statistics .... I wonder why the 'Watchers' statistic is available to a 3rd party site and not available directly ... :?

they have own unquie sound

Here's another reason why...

As I was in the DFW airport, on my way back from the LTG gathering, I was standing in line to get a sandwich. I had my guitar with me, in a case with the small Guild medallion thingie. The guy in line behind me speaks up and asks me if I had a Guild guitar in the case. When I told him it was my D-25, he says he has a D-25, has had it since the 70s, and still loves it. We ended up sharing a table for lunch and talking Guild.

How cool was that?

Yeah, I've had mine over 34 years now

I just re-strung it the other night and :shock: It sounds like angels singing

Same thing that grabbed me when I first bought it - it looks and sounds like a fine instrument, not just a guitar.

I've always liked D-25s. I ran into a couple at the time I was first learning guitar and thought highly of them.

I don't own one, but instead a GAD50. I checked out a number of used D-25s at a guitar show but the ones available there sounded lousy and were really beat up.

A good-sounding D-25 is a small piece of art.

You have had your D-25 for over 34 years and just now re-strung it?
Wow, those were some well made strings! :shock:

A guy at the Arlington show had a sweet-looking antique burst D-25. He was asking $800. It was a little bit hard to walk away from it. 8)
