    My Tacoma D-55 Bridge Pins Are Not....

    :evil: I purchased my Tacoma D-55 about 2 years ago from one of the members on the board. No need to mention names. I think it is an '07. All the specs state that the bridge pins are bone. I hate to change strings so I just finally put on a new set. I can tell ya, mine are the same old crappy...

    DeArmond Jazz Box On TV..

    8) I get the Music Choice on my cable co. which is Bright House. On the Jazz station, sometimes a backgound shot will have the 2 Goldtone pups & the top 1/2 of the tailpiece showing. I think a X155. Has anyone else seen this? I turn the TV on & listen while I read before I sleep & have caught...

    I need help tuning a 12 string....

    :? How in the heck do you tune the octave strings. I'm dumb & lost. :oops: What do I tune my G, D, A, E octaves to? I know what do do w/ my high E & B. I'm using a Peterson tuner & need to know what note to look for. Does this makes sense? Help :!: Thanks.

    Can anyone date this guitar?

    serial #AU3210025 I just sent a link for a JF30-12 to a buddy. I was trying to find out when it was made & then let him make up his mind. He has played a few Taylors but he will also spend over 2K for one. Taylors may have a easier neck but the Guilds I own sound awesome. I have never played a...

    Guild Sighting...

    :o Last nite I turned my TV on to listen to the music channels before I went to sleep. On the Blues station a song by Lazy Lester came on. On one of the graphics they change, I saw a headstock w/ a Guild Chesterfield logo. Don't know what kind it was, but Lazy Lester was too cool. 8) 8) 8)

    My "New" JF-30-12 is back....

    :D Just got my axe back from my luthier. I really could not get her to play well so I took her to see my doc. He cut a new aged bone nut, leveled & dressed 12-17 frets, adjusted the saddle & now she plays & sounds very nice. Cost was $150 but she needed the work. I just played around w/ her for...

    Capos for 12 strings??

    :lol: I just realized that I put this in the wrong section, so if a Mod can move it, it should be under Acoustic. :D I really love to capo my guitars to get different voicings. Is there a capo made for 12's only? Can I use a Kyser or G7th or will I not have enough space? What do ya'll use w/...
