Uh oh, here we go! ;)

Everyone here knows I'm scheming for ways to snatch up Hammer's '94 S-100. ;)

When I was in Arlington, VA a couple months ago I saw a green '66 Starfire at Action Music.

I asked Hans about the green finish because it seems to be a sporadically used color for Guild guitars. He said there wasn't anything special about it. When it was used it was a standard finish, like on the one Hammer owns. He said it's just not the most popular color.

As for green acoustics, I have no idea. I've seen pics of them occasionally, but not very often. I'd imagine Guild didn't make a whole lot of them for the reason above.

I for one like the green finish, and the one on crackbay looks cool!

Yes. There have been several sightings of a green acoustic/electric as you posted. The Starfire Bass in the green finish is somewhat iconic and commands a premium price. Lots of folks have a soft spot in their heart for the green Starfires, various models. There are a couple of green solid body electrics that have their fans and standing offers to buy. If you search LTG you'll turn up much green. Since you're in acoustic/acoustic electric, if my memory is correct we have seen that model (or something similiar) in natural, green, red, blue, black and white. Collect them all!
