It sold fast, it wasn't on Reverb longer than a day and a half, and I'm not surprised either - check out this fairly unique X175 in cherry with what appears to be a Starfire style laminated mahogany body (or at least the outer laminate layer) : [url]https://reverb.com/item/27698821-guild-x-175-1963-cherry?utm_source=MarketingCloud&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=20190114+-+Transactional+-+Watcher+Offer+Made+(blue)[/URL]

I guess it's very similar to those short-lived "Stratford Starfire" guitars, but I've never seen that wood/color combo on a 175 before that I can recall. Great looking guitar in any case!

Wow! That is great-looking! I don't recall seeing one of those before either. It looks in great condition and very clean also. I would have given serious consideration to purchasing that if I had seen it. (So it's probably good that I didn't!)
