So it took a whole of Guilds before finally swinging toward adding a rosewood. Does this make me a Guild swinger, of sorts? I picked this one, or maybe it picked me who knows. I was able to purchase it from a member in my FB group, got it last night. He quit playing it years ago and just plays parlor guitars around the house. He remembers maybe he got it in the 90’s. It’s very clean. Really kind of looks newer, no scratches or dings except top rear corner of the headstock looks like a lacquer chip. Just the owners manual, no other paperwork. But the binding is yellowed and the top appears dark to me. Also I thought D55s had an abalone rosette. There’s a “55” stamped on the neck block, but can’t really see a D. Anyways sounds great just like the 2003 Washburn USA Custom Shop dread I still. Neck profile seems quite thin compared to my other Guilds. Any idea of a year?
