Nice ones!

I played a great old F30 years ago in a shop down in Salem Oregon. The price was right! Kicking myself for not snagging it.

Sorry for the loss of your buddy Rich. Been there a few times myself. They live ten or better years then break our hearts. Then we do it all over again, and are all the better for it.

Congrats Chazmo, D40’s rock!

Thanks D30man.i have not owned a jumbo but did own a D212 a while back.

Nice Guild! I tried running last week at the request of a grandkid. It hurt.

Hello Stuball48, you can believe I will be spending most of my playing time on the Guild!

Those are cool Grot! I did have a bass many moons ago. That would be me playing it (although electric, and not a Guild) in 1968 with my band “The Trojan Horse”.

Thanks Chazmo! That is my “beater” a 1986 Washburn D15m mahogany/mahogany plywood.. The southern jumbo is not the usual spruce/mahogany. It is a 2007 custom shop spruce/rosewood built under the tutelage of Ren. Seventh guitar built on the seventh day of the seventh month of 2007. I did own a...

That could very well be. I believe Richard might have the D 65 that I once owned.

Thank you folks, I remember what a great group this was and is!

Greetings all. I am back on this site after not being here for many years. I have not owned a Guild in many years but just purchased a D60. I owned one of these a while back, it was pretty beat up and I sold it, but I never forgot how good it sounded. Since then, I owned a D66 that was a...

The post Fender Westerly D55’s are very good. My ‘98 was better than the D60 and the D66. It had the thinnest top of all of them. I also owned a post Fender Westerly D40 that was lighter and more responsive than a ‘76 D40 that lived here for a while.

I have owned both versions. The herringboned rosette was the better one. Neither was on par with my ‘98 D55…

John Pearce phosphor bronze, lights or mediums depending. EJ16’s. Molson ale in my long past drinking days.

I have owned dozens of Guilds. To my ear the post Fender Westerly builds were some of their very best.

7 years, perfect. We gave up on churches and replaced them with weekly bible study.

Yes, true. The 98 was also lighter braced, thinner finished and had the narrowest of the three modern headstocks.

Both great guitars, I much preferred the ‘98. It seems that the Westerly post Fender builds were very good. I had a 99 D55 that I liked a lot better than a Corona built one I had the pleasure to play for a while. I’d a kept the 99 D55 had I not found something I liked better. I only let the D40...
