I was loading my stapler today and I saw SF4 stamped inside the stapler. If not for Guild I wouldn’t have thought twice about it, I wouldn’t have even noticed!

This is my 3rd try at a vintage Guild with DeArmond pickups. I had a 1970 SFIII Special with DeArmonds, block markers, and best of all green but the neck was too wide and thin. I eventually sold it. Then last September I bought another SFIII, a '61 with DeArmonds that I thought was green...

I finally bought Walter's CD "Movin' Up". It's loaded with great guitar playing and tones, good songs and singing too! I'll try to post some YouTube links soon.

I recently bought the '59 CE100D mentioned here: http://www.letstalkguild.com/ltg/showthread.php?192707-1958-ce-100d It had super light-feeling strings on it which measured about .0085 - .009 on my caliper. So I figure it was a .009 - .042 set, way too light. I restrung it with DR Pure .011...

SOLD: 1965 Fender Bandmaster in repro 1x15 combo cab '65 Bandmaster for sale installed in repro brown/wheat combo cab with a Weber C15N. An adjustable negative feedback control installed in the extension speaker jack is the only mod. Filter caps changed out around 2004. See my Reverb listing...

If so, congrats! It was a beauty!

Ol' Hankeroo is at it again (still). This SF IV is on eBay right now; based on all of the parts being sold in separate auctions it looks like it must have been a good player that was all there. He states "IT HAD THE WRONG PICKUPS INSTALLED SO I TOOK IT APART" - however, he is selling the...

Sold: ca. 1969-70 Ampeg GU-12 Sold! Great sounding classic Ampeg GU12 guitar amp. 2 7591 power tubes for about 15 watts. The output transformer was replaced with a Mercury Magnetics Reverberocket replacement OT and the speaker was replaced with a Jensen Mod 12 / 35 watt model. The speaker...

I got this used ca. 2005 Bad Cat Trem Cat 30 around the end of the year. I haven't had too much time to play it yet, but I like it. My wife even thinks it's cute! Which means it can stay in the bedroom, replacing my Bandmaster Reverb (in Super Reverb guise) for now at least. It's got an...

Not mine... Just saw last night an ebay listing for a new GSR X500D: http://www.ebay.com/itm/GUILD-GSR-X-500D-BLONDE-STUART-GUITAR-/291041313790?pt=Guitar&hash=item43c36a03fe Streetsounds also has a slightly less expensive GSR X150D. I hadn't heard about these. I'm not a humbucker type guy...

Played my GSR T500 last night and noticed the ground ( or lack of ground) buzz that has been reported in other threads. Touching the strings didn't stop it, but touching the metal end of the cable did so I guess there's no string ground. When I change strings, I'll have to pull the Bigsby to...

An alleged '61 wiring harness but the tone pots look to be replaced. They look newer. It's always hard to tell under the solder, but to me it looks like CTS (137) pots from the 39th week of 1979...

I'm planning on going to the Philly (Oaks) Guitar Show today and tomorrow. Hoping that somebody has one of the new X175/X175B's there to try out. Would also like to see an A150.

Mike's SF III thread got me thinking about an SF III Emerald I used to own and I found this picture of 2 since sold guitars I used to own: It's a '59 T100D and a 1970 SF III Emerald Special w/ stock DeArmond's and block inlays. The green is real tough to photograph, you can barely tell it's...

My son's band, Nexus, released a 4-song EP through his college music business program and it's available on iTunes and Amazon. He plays drums with this group. He's the one with the beard in the photo (since shaved!). Song #2, "Here It Goes" got an explicit rating for the F-word, everything...

Actually I haven't received any of it yet, but in separate auctions today I scored a Franz pu, 2 Kolb tuners minus the backing plate/case, and one complete Kolb tuner for my parts bin.

Here's the copy from MF: This Road Runner pedalboard bag features a 600-denier outer cover for long-lasting protection. The 1/2" padding around the pedal bag keeps your pedals looking new and well protected. As an added benefit, the cover transforms into a nonslip bottom so your effect pedals...

The Ampeg Jet J12 I bought from charliea here arrived in PA today. I made it feel right at home: It sounds really good and it's nice and clean. Even has what appear to be original (1968) Ampeg-branded Sylvania 7591A's and also a couple Telefunken 12AX7's: I'm curious if the speaker is...

Has anybody tried a set of .011's on their GSR T500? After playing mine tonight, I feel like it's a little too floppy, I prefer a little fight in the strings. Just wondering if it made a major change to either neck relief or intonation before I restring.

While poking around the Guild website, I saw the resonators listed - specifically the round-neck R 30. Looks cool, has a National biscuit bridge and National cone. Has anybody had a chance to play/buy one? Might want to put that on my want list (it never ends, does it?) Although I promised...
