Bonnie Raitt and Her Guild F50s...

[Guildelicious]

Bonnie has got to be one of the most loyal Guild F50R player, I have never seen her played another acoustic in concert...check out the videos below....I am familiar with the double pickguard Guild, however, the other F50 lookalike with the fancier abalone top border, headstock and different fretboard inlay...what model is that? Never seen another one, was it a custom order?

Hello Guildelicious,

That's a JF-100.

Thanks Hans, do you know when it was made and how much it sold for?

I did some quick search on the web and apparently John Prine also plays one but at home for songwriting only! Any Guild forum member has one and care to post some photos!

The model was introduced in the early '90s and it was available up until the closing of the Westerly Plant in 2001. The last retail price was $ 4299.99 and that price included a Deluxe hardshell case.

6 took the words out of my mouth. I like it but I could live w/o the carved heel.
