I bought a GV-52 last year. My first rosewood guitar ever and only my second Guild acoustic. For a variety of reasons I have not spent a lot of time with it. It took a wile to get it set up the way I wanted it. But now . . . Golly. The sound, the feel/playability. It's just amazing.
I...
Hello folks. I stupidly misplaced my saddle when I got interrupted by a home-office move. Does anyone know what radius the top is? Is it important to replace only with a non-compensated saddle? And is the width 3/32 or just a little less than that (it looks like 3/32" on my ruler, but online...
Just bought a GV-52 on Reverb. Will update on arrival. I was next-to-last bidder on an F40 Traditional on eBay and dropped out on a great deal for some reason. The next day, my dream guitar fell in my lap. I’m really excited!!
My local Guitar Center (Fredericksburg, VA) has an OM-240CE on clearance for under $300. I was surprised by how nice it sounded. I don't need another guitar, but if you're looking for a reasonably-priced small-bodied instrument you might want to consider this one.
I picked up a Newark St. Stratford x-350 from a friend of mine (and fellow LTG-er). Okay, I got this guitar more than a month ago. I was out of town on business and had hardly played it before this week. But when they released this a couple of years ago I knew I had to have one. It pushes a...
Hi Guildsters. I'm looking to add a Guild to my stable. I hear almost nothing about this guitar from the end of the Fender era. Anyone have one? Played one? How do they compare to the JF-30, the F-50, the new F-40? Thanks.
Hi. I just missed out on a nice one here recently after getting the green light to purchase something I've always wanted. I also just took a pass on a great-sounding Corona JF-30, after deciding to hold out for a GF. My budget is around $1k-2k, give or take. Looking for a great sounding...
I'm not a dreadnaught guy really, but I've always liked the 90s Westerly-made dreadnaughts. I've noticed used prices for Guilds are up sharply lately, but the prices for Guild dreadnaughts are still pretty low. I routinely see DCE-5s for $800-950. I think these are great guitars and wonder...
Greetings. My first good guitar was a Starfire XII. I occasionally see them for sale, but they're expensive for something I probably wouldn't play a whole lot. Any potential that we will see an import version? There's already a Hagstrom model that's quite similar (and I'm tempted, but part...
I'm interested in a used Guild, but it has no label. It's a later model, so there's no serial number on the headstock. I'm not so concerned about knowing the year or the decrease in value. But I am kind of worried that it might have been stolen. Not due to any circumstances except the...
