Aerosmith Brad Whitford's new 2020 Guild Aristocrat HH in Snowcrest White with Guildsby

[SFIV1967]

Looks like Aerosmith's Brad Whitford is again using a Guild guitar, this time a 2020 Guild Aristocrat HH in Snowcrest White with Guildsby as Guitar.com reports in their April 2020 story. Remember he was playing a Guild Nightbird in the past.

"Other notable guitars in the quiver are a NAMM 2020 Guild Aristocrat with a Bigsby vibrato..."

Here's the picture of her and I just noticed the Guild crown from the Chesterfield on the pickguard. Interesting detail.
They come with the standard size "HB-2" humbuckers.

Man there’s a big difference between one if those and a Nightbird!

Looks good ! I like the looks of these guitars a lot but no one seems to have them. The demo with RJ. Ronquillo is great though. And the added bigsby looks cool in my eyes too. I had this done one my korean Aristocrat with fransz Pu. The angle of the strings is a little "sharp" but no tuning issues .

I have mixed feelings on the aesthetics. It reminds me of the DeArmond series from 20 years ago. I'm still intrigued by the pickups, though.

GG, was thinking the same thing - like a white DeArmond.

I like it, but I'm not a Bigsby fan in particular. Still, looks pretty distinctive.

I just now noticed the corona virus pick guard. How appropriate for 2020.
