Anyone just have 1 Guild acoustic they play?

[Westerly Wood]

I know many of you have many different Guild acoustics. Over the years., accumulating etc. I saw how Brick has 3 he keeps in a constant rotation. Does anyone have just the one?

My Br is the only one I play. The other is my wife’s. I don’t do well with a lot of options.

Just wondering.

I currently only have 3 Guild acoustics and 5 Guild electrics but the one acoustic that is always out of the case since at least 2 years is the NH GSR F-20 Cocobolo. It's small and easy to play on the couch...

Hell yeah. Old school F30. The F20s I owned were a little shallow and quiet, and I heard a boxy tone in the bigger beasts, but would kill for a Hobo M30 if there was space on the fretboard to squeeze in a bigger nut.

 

[walrus]

Yes. I've only owned two, and one at a time. A 1984 Guild D64 was my only acoustic guitar (Guild or otherwise) for over 30 years - now owned by LTGer wileypickett. I had to move away from a dread size for shoulder discomfort reasons.

I replaced it with my current Guild, a 2011 F-30RCE.

1988 d25m. Had it since 1992 and will probably have it forever

 

[Taylor Martin Guild]

I sold all my Guilds over the past several years.
Most were 12 strings and I just can't play a 12 string these days.

My only Guild now is my 8 string baritone.
Yes, this is the third 8 string Guild, as two had to go back for replacement due to bridge issued.
I hope this one will be last one.
So far, I like this guitar a lot and hope it holds up to the test of time.

I bet with the Cocobolo back it has an awesome and big sound for a small guitar!?

My ‘53 X-150 prototype is the only Guild I have picked in weeks. Why?

I finally found the perfect amp to bring out it’s angry best (a silverface Princeton Reverb).

That guitar is now a balled-up fist, ready to strike at the least provocation.

 

[GuildD40]

Purchased my first Guild this past Summer. A D-40 Traditional. Absolutely love this guitar. It has a wonderful sound.

Neal, a 1953 X-150 is awesome, but your acoustics are waiting patiently for some attention.

I owned one Guild, my black D25, for about 14 years until I picked up my Corona D50 as a present to myself in the wake of my daughter's birth (and after giving a more extravagant present to my then wife). It wasn't until about 2013 that the madness truly began. It should go without saying that I was divorced by then.

 

[JohnW63]

Sometimes, I wish I could say, " Yes, I just have one acoustic to play and it's all I need. " . Those last four words just don't work out.

 

[GF60]

I have indeed owned many Guilds through the years, but am down to only one these days. It is my maple GF60. I'll keep it until I can't play anymore, then it will go to a nephew.

 

[krysh]

Me. NH F-30R

 

[mushroom]

Yep.
DV52.
Never needed another.

 

[beecee]

No

 

[beecee]

I've said for years if I had to keep only one it would be my D-40 Standard.

Lately, the Corona JF-30 is really growing on me...and the D-55, but I've been playing the D-40 a lot lately....and not out of guilt.

Arguably, an X-150 is acoustic at its core. Fully hollow, braced, with a pressed maple back. It sounds good unplugged.

 

[Guildedagain]

Nice extinguisher!

I don’t do well with a lot of options.

I hear that. Options just cause confusion. Love the one you're with.

 

[Uke]

Yep, just one -- my D-55, though my X-175 gets as much attention.
