I'm not looking to buy it, just curious on opinions of this guitar from knowledgeable Guild folks. What's with the double label? You can find it by searching Vintage Guitar.

What's with the back of that guitar? Looks like it was charred in a fire, possibly for a nice smokey sound.

In response to market demand for immediate aged tone guitars, Guild is now offering "torchified" backs.

Looks like someone took The Stones' advice to Paint It Black..

There are a lot of pen scribbles on the top label, and it almost looks like someone tried to erase the bottom label. I would guess some one shot the back black, to cover up a lot of wear. It doesn't have the really old style head stock, but who knows really what place it was built.
