Hello, all.
I'm new here, and boy, you guys know your stuff.
I just picked up an '87 D-30 bld. It's dirty, needs a few new frets and a bit of general TLC, but should be a nice player. It happened along at the right time and the right price. I'd been trolling for another Guild for a while, having sold a much-loved favorite '76 D-40 many years ago.
It has chrome Grovers on it, and they look a little "off" somehow. All of the pictures I've seen (not many) show gold hardware. The chrome looks OK, but that gold sure looks nice with all that blond flamed maple.
Were these produced with the chrome Grovers? I would swap them for some new or slightly used gold ones, to keep it real. Someone on here may even have a set.
Thanks for your help.
