Hi,
I have a Guild archtop electric with a serial number that places it in 1955. It has a New York guitar shaped label that clearly states the model as an X125. Looking at the guitar and some specific finish issues, it looks to be the guitar that is in the 1956 catalog as the new Capri CE100. I believe this may be the prototype for this model? I do have photos of the instrument if anyone is interested. It would be nice to know if it is indeed the prototype?
