Early '70s F-47 AND F-48 on Ebay

[Metalman]

It is a bad time to be out of money . . .

On Ebay now there are two very cool and special guitars, both from the early '70s

An F-47, and an F-48. Both the same guitar, just the F-47 is the smaller of the two. The F-48 is the same size as the F-50 and F-50R, just with Mahogany back and sides.

How often does this happen?

Here they are:

Excellent! Just wish I could afford that F-48...always wanted one!

Love the write-up for the F-47! - The unit has some battle scarring or "character" points, but there seems to be a good spirit behind it.
Would be fun to hear it in action.

The part in the description of the F-47 that I don't understand is:

the bridge is authentic but not original

Shouldn't that read: 'The bridge was replaced by a non-original bridge'.

Hi Hans; yes, a little awkward but it sounds like he is saying that (a) the bridge on the guitar is an 'authentic' or real Guild bridge but (b) isn't original to the guitar. I can't tell by looking whether the first statement is true or not; if it isn't, then I think your language would be more accurate ... and honest. Best, J

I used to own a J48. It was a great sounding guitar with a beefy neck. I wish I had kept it.
