I played a '78 x-175 today for a bit. Really nice guitar, in wonderful shape. It felt quite good. Neck only and middle p/u sounds wonderful, bridge only not quite. But overall, it impressed me. I'm sorely tempted, but he's asking too much I suspect.
I am seeing x-170s listed at somewhat lower prices. Haven't played one yet. How would it compare to that 70's 175? Do both have soundposts? Similar neck profiles? How do they do at higher volumes? Any strong disadvantage or advantage to either.
The Guild bug is biting hard. I think I'm a goner!
