Ladies and Gentlemen,
Greetings…..I am thrilled to have found this site and have been enjoying all the posts and the shared knowledge here at letstalkguild.
This is my very first post and I am looking forward to all the responses, so here goes…..
I live in the Knoxville Tennessee area and have for over a year now been looking for a new USA Guild acoustic, either 6 or 12 string.
Having gone thru a plethora of YouTube videos, I am SOLD on the quality and sound, but would definitely like to hear one/play one in person.
There lies my dilemma…..
Neither Guitar Center or Open Chord Music have USA models to choose from. They are both listed on Guilds website as dealers but unfortunately both of them do not have the USA models on hand.
There was also a store out in Maryville Tennessee, Merlin Music, that is no longer in business but is still listed as a dealer.
Regardless,
I am planning a fall trip to Nashville to see if I can’t find something there.
Definitely will be going to all the big stores looking for the right Guild, I.e. Carter Vintage, Gruen’s etc, and I will surely call ahead prior to the trip to check on the stores inventory.
I just wonder if they will have what I’m looking for or not. It‘s very frustrating drawing a blank here locally.
Of course the last resort may be to purchase online. The problem there is I cannot play a sampling of instruments to see what appeals to me when shopping online, not to mention return shipping and re-stocking fees etc.
So that’s my story, I‘m open to your thoughts and suggestions.
Best regards to one and all!
