This just popped up for sale. Pretty rare and unique. I've never seen one before.

from the ad:
Vintage and Extremely Rare All Mahogany 1957 Guild M50
This Guild M50 has to be one of the most rare flat tops ever made and I've never seen another. The common all mahogany Guild M20 is well known and sought after because of its association with Nick Drake. The more rare all mahogany M30 has gotten very hard to find. An M50 is otherwise unheard of but for this one. Guitar does show a lot of play wear and may soon need a neck reset but my price is firm due to its rarity.

Or, for me, M-30, Hans. I hesitated...and lost the only one I'll likely ever see just last year.

I love the cash only on a $14k purchase 🙃

Well, it could have been an actual guitar... O.k., here's my before and after.

Impressive...the flaw might have been sharing it here so soon after the midnight CL posting. If you’d have waited, I saw it when I got up at 7am and probably would have done the sharing here for you before realizing what day it was 😂
