I pulled the trigger on my first Guild a couple hours ago. A '91 F25 ce NT...man, I hope I did all this hi-tech (for me) stuff right...I apologize for the poor quality. I tried to get a shot of the label, but couldn't get a clear/close enough shot...the S/N is CJ000477...the case is like nothing I've ever seen; 5 latches (one on the hinge side)...thin body, plays great...I'm happy...
Wild, congrats!
After Hans pointed out that model actually existed and I saw the dates on the s/n lists I was wondering if it was what I then suspected it was, and it does appear to be.
That series was based on the classic F40 body outline and it looks like a blinged-down version of the later F65ce.
Is the back maple?
3" deep? (edit: corrected from "3-1/2")
Surprising amount of volume out of those puppies for the size, huh? (I have an F65ce)
There was a whole range of versions of "Fxxce's" with different body woods and depths, as well as 2 different scale lengths, the longer 25-5/8 scale being introduce in late '94.
And all of 'em got that oval soundhole.
If you like
that one, imagine what a
vintage D25-12 will do to you!
