Scored (I hope) a 1953 X-50
I think I might have just gotten a win (increasingly rare, we know) on eBay. I might have missed something, but I think this is the real McCoy?? a 1953 X-50 all(?)-original first-year Guild.
I once had a '56 X-50, lovely little guitar, my swing pals thought it was just right. I was looking for a replacement '50s X-50, none attracted me and all seemed overpriced, until this one. Aside from the case, this one looks real to me - hope I'm not deluded. I've always wanted a guitar from the first experimental days of Guild. Nifty headstock logo, what? With luck, it'll be a good player for another 54 years.
