I saw this somewhere online but have, of course, forgotten where. My memory says her first Guild was a M-85-II in the non-hollow configuration. Hence 1973 or later and humbuckers. This bass, with the cover where the bridge PU would be, is similar to factory configured JS I's from the 1970's...

https://www.aarp.org/rollingstones2024/ AARP members get access to presale about a week before non-members. This is not a joke. As far as we know Keith Richards is not a member of the American Association of Retired Persons since he is neither American nor Retired although the official name...

The original thread had degenerated to the point that people were just posting words that sounded weird together or that were duplicates from the previous two years or were names that had been used, at least according to a Google search. Concerns were expressed :) This new thread is started...

I'd be happier if the jack were tighter. What are my options if I try and do it myself and don't invest in special tools? I know if I just "spin" the jack from the outside I run the risk of disconnecting a wire. I doubt that I have the coordination and patience to go through the f hole to...

I haven't played bass in a while since I've been singing bass in a quartet (which is a hoot since my voice range is tenor) but later this month is "Bring your guitar to church Sunday". The organist gets the Sunday off and Mrs. Fro. will be one of hopefully a few guitarists leading. So I play...

Action Music posted these photos (on Facebook) in observance of their 26th year of operation. They've moved so it's not the same room. First Day. Today. Black and white in 1997 seems weird but... I see a Gibson on the left and possibly Guilds in the lower right in the older picture...

I'm lazy and I know I could get answers searching or just asking @The Guilds of Grot. There are three distinct headstocks seen on Pilot basses. There are more than one name for each type although some names have a lot of consensus behind them. I would like to gather Pilot headstock pictures...

Since autographed instruments are a perennial topic and generally considered vandalism, at least when someone we have never heard about autographs a Guild, I present the attached article for your consideration. It describes a charity auction which will happen soon and mentions instruments...

Might not be news. Even I don't remember everything. Post and picture from a social media site that will not be named, from someone claiming to be Sammy Hagar. I have no reason to doubt that but I have been misled before. Anybody have the book and remember the story?

Since folks here are pretty good at ferreting out Guilds for sale in obscure places I present the (US) Government Services Auction site. https://gsaauctions.gov I did not find any Guilds but much to my amusement there are 10 Yamaha guitars available as a lot - 7 new and 3 used...

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B4JQ6BJ7 Donner Guitars. Not a brand I hear much about. They say Now I can barely think because my BS detector is going off so loudly. But sometimes the detector is too sensitive. So given a semi-hollow electric guitar how much polishing is actually...

Posted in BGUF https://letstalkguild.com/ltg/index.php?threads/bguf-beautiful-guitar-ugly-feet.203103/page-117#post-2050266 The absence of latches plus the outside zippered pocket makes me think this is a "case cover" over a HSC. The Guild logo suggests it is official or licensed or a flagrant...

A bit after 10:30 is a Fender Custom Shop Precision that is mostly plastic. The use of a Novak pickup makes it of possible interest.

Not sure where to put this. General humor? Music humor? Genre spanning nerd jokes? Seems to be a design available on clothing from https://www.redbubble.com/ TinEye doesn't give me enough to guess where the Guild came from but my guess is that it is a RedBubble original.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/science/2022/09/25/music-taste-personality-traits/ Private browsing and clearing WaPo cookies first might get you past the paywall. Also waiting a couple of days. Or download and read the PDF I saved :-) The conclusion is one we know anecdotally - many people's...

We periodically discover or rediscover video of a 60's band or performer on a TV variety show. Sometimes it is clear that the performance is live, if only because the audio does not match a known/released recording of a song. In other cases it is clear that the performers are miming or lip...
