    TRC mystery (to me, anyway)

    So I was fortunate enough to land a 1985 D-15 in great condition from a very nice seller. OHSC and case candy included. The seller said that he bought the guitar new in 85 or 86, and that it had the ornate truss rod cover pictured below when he purchased it. The TRC fits perfectly - not sure how...

    Partial capo on a 12-string

    (I know, yet another capo thread. Honestly, I did some searching first...) I'm new to the world of partial (Esus) capos. What are you all using for a cut capo on your 12's? I have a Thalia partial pad that works great on my 6 strings, but isn't wide enough for the 12. Interested to hear what...

    12-String Tonewood differences, preferences

    Hoping to tap into the group's collective experience: I've never had the opportunity to play any Guild 12-strings with anything other than a rosewood back and sides; I currently own a '77 F-512. What am I missing out on? If I were to look for a second one (likely a Guild jumbo of some sort)...

    Advice - neck rattle

    Looking for some advice here. I have a 2019 F40 Traditional still within the return period, purchased for what I think is a pretty good price. It's B-stock. gorgeous with two tiny dings and sounds fantastic. However, while I was restringing it and tuning to pitch, I noticed a weird vibration...

    NGD - GSR F47 KC

    When richardp69 says a guitar is spectacular, it's spectacular. This is the Koa F47 that's been seen a few times on here, and I feel pretty lucky to have gotten it. It's even prettier in person - the bear claw is much more prevalent than can be seen in pictures. And the sound is wonderful - warm...

    So I think I bought this...

    https://www.guitarcenter.com/Used/Guild/Vintage-1969-D25-Acoustic-Guitar.gc Definitely an impulse buy: Supposedly 1969 (my birth year) D25 in "excellent" condition for what seems to be a pretty good price, and an easy return if it's not as advertised. SN is appears to be OG697 (or 06697?) which...

    Nut for 70s F512

    I couldn't find this information anywhere, so I'm posting it case it helps anyone in the future: I wanted to replace a cracked nut on my 1977 Guild F512 with a pre-cut nut, and went in search of one. After a lot of searching for guidance, I found a GraphTech sizing chart...

    Case for Vintage F512

    Hi all - I've found some old thread and some hints, but nothing definitive. Can someone point me towards a case that will definitely fit a 1977 F512? I've found a few where the measurements are too close to be certain. I'm looking for something in the $100-$200 range. (Gator, TKL, etc.)...
