I know I should probably tag this onto a discussion we've already had somewhere else. But . . . does anyone have a template for an early F20 pickguard? For reasons that I cannot articulate, I'd like to make one for my M240e. I am in love with this particular guitar...

After picking up that M240e (now with a Fishman Rare Earth Humbucker) and playing it a lot - two long gigs, and kitchen demos for seven songs, I started thinking a lot about about F20s and then a particular Oxnard M40 on Reverb. This is in addition to continually thinking about short-scale F30s...

So as I've mentioned elsewhere, I've had my eye on an M-240E Troubadour for a few years. I've gone back and forth on it. In 2016 I picked up an Art & Lutherie Roadhouse parlor instead (with help from the wonderful Godin artist relations guy). I love that little guitar a lot and it does many...

So a year or two ago, I installed a Fishman Rare Earth Single Coil in my DCE1, because the electronics were sketchy, and I love Fishman sound hole pickups. The whole time though, I kept the barn door electronics installed, but not wired to the jack. Tonight I decided to pull all that out...

This one lies somewhere between granular and pedantic: But what was/is the name of the furniture factory that vacated the Westerly plant before Guild moved in? I remember there being some relationship to the Red Lion company - either Red Lion bought them out or they moved to somewhere Red...

As a result of a Guild Facebook group discussion, I'm now curious about the dimension of F40s though the years. I'd long assumed (with confirmation from catalogs and Han's book) that the F40 (and various relatives) always hovered around 16" at the lower bout. But . . . in the aforementioned...

I’m replacing the pickup in my 90s DCE1, but I’m unsure how to remove the end pin switch jack I’ve swapped out many pickups and jacks, but never this type. can anyone offer input?

Before I tread into the wasteland that is Craiglist and Ebay, I thought I should mention here that I'm going to be selling my late 90s Westerly DV4 (the all solid wood version of the D4, for those who don't know). In short I have four six string acoustics and I can no longer comfortably live...

Custom Guild truss rod covers in brass, copper, bronze or silver. Several designs and finishes available,as well as custom options: http://www.etsy.com/shop/MyFairePet?ref=search_shop_redirect

I thought I'd share this . . . My artist jeweler/metalsmith wife is now making custom truss rod covers. You can choose which metal (brass, antique brass, copper, rainbow copper, bronze, or silver), and your own custom text. Right now she's making both Guild and Gibson shapes, but other custom...

A custom shop F30r-ls just sold on ebay, and it just happened to be my old F30r-ls. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... FxhgQ%253D Whas it an LTG member? -Chris

I know I could probably measure them myself, but . . . Does anyone know what size bridge pins best fit a mid-eighties Guild? I don't believe they are the standard "Martin" size, but I could be wrong. Any help is most appreciated. Thanks, Chris

Approx 8:00 pm EST, Thursday November 19, 2009 Scene: My living room, southeastern Connecticut. My wife: What are looking at? Me: Umm some old Guild guitar catalogs from the late 1990's My wife: Seriously? Me: Seriously My wife: What are those yellow envelopes? Me: That's how I store the...

Several/many years ago someone sent me a JPEG copy of a Frets magazine article from the mid-eighties on the Gruhn Guild models (perhaps it was specifically the F44, I can't say for sure anymore). Does anyone have a copy of this? And if so, could you post it? Thanks, Chris

I love this song, but had never seen this before until today . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9ksV1-weTM

I'm semi-scouting out a DV25 available at a regional chain store. From what I can online it appears to be in excellent condition. Does anyone know the blue book price range for a DV25? I already own a DV4, so I'd be more or less upgrading for the sake of a gloss finish and a chesterfield...

I have tomorrow off and will be spending the day with my near-six-year-old. We'll be hitting up the Sub museum, eating lunch made by some old friends (http://www.twolittlefishonline.com/), and making a stop at a thrift shop in Westerly . . . http://www.freewebs.com/jonnycake I'll let you know...

I posted earlier about the issue with the output jack on my Fishman Matrix pickup. I just wanted to publicly state that I am receiving exceptionally good customer support from Fishman. I've dealt with them before and they've never disappointed - this time they are going above and beyond even my...

The output jack on my Fishman Matrix is acting up, basically the signal is cutting in and out, depending upon the position of the plug in the jack. Does it need to be cleaned? Does it need to be repaired? Can it be repaired? Does it need to be replaced? Any help is most appreciated...
