I'm struggling here. Both is the answer for me, but the question is more which do you grab first.
Option 1 - Mid 70s D-35 Sunburst. Repaired top (very subtle visually, small crack by pickguard). It also has a few bruises, but overall a 7/10. It sounds far better than I expected. Very playable. A great mahogany dread.
Option 2 - Early New Hartford era D-50 Bluegrass Special. No cracks. Sounds as I expected, but I have very high expectations of this Adi / Rosewood model. It's a 9/10 aesthetically.
If you plan on having both mahogany and rosewood Guild dreads (D35 or D40 and a D50), which would you pull the trigger on today?
