A '63 Guild D 50, a couple of questions.
Hi, guys out there.
I'm looking for an old Guild D50. Stumbled upon a '63 D50. Considering buying it. Would you please give me some info help ?
1, a Fake ?
The color of cover of neck heel and binding is still white through 50+ years. just a bit unbelievable. The majority of it are brown/yellow.
2,
Are these two lines(beside arrows) in top wood cracks ?
3,
Is the bridge original ?
'63 D50 seems to be BRW, but this looks like ebony.
4,
Is the finish original ?
5,
Is the logo original ?
'63 D50 logo seems to be golden color. But this looks like white ? And there's green stuff area around logo, a remade logo ?
I asked the seller of most of the questions as above, he replied "all original. A pro tech repaired weather cracks on top. I bought this new in 1964".
Here's another '63 Guild D50 for sale, for comparison:

Any input would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Best, Dave.
