Hello all,
I am currently in search if my 1st vintage hollow body electric and I believe I have narrowed it down to a guild x-50 based on the look, cost, reviews, videos I have encountered during my research.
There is one (1955) currently for sale that has a replacement neck and I am wondering what this should do for value? The price ($975) is a little less then I have seen some sell for online recently ($1200ish) but not significantly less. I am someone who tends to keep things vs reselling, but i am curious if this type of vintage instrument with repair might not be a good investment if I ever were to resell it in the future. I also don't want to overpay with intentions of keeping it should this price be too high considering the neck replacement.
Thanks for any feedback/ comments you might have regarding a vintage guild with replacement neck.
