I'm listing this one again. I thought this was going to be sold a number of weeks ago but the sale fell through. I then had second thoughts about listing it again as it is a great and rare guitar. But at the end of the day here it is.

The Prestige series of guitars are essentially flat top versions of the Guild X-170 arch top. The body is the same maple arched back as the X-170. But with an X braced spruce top. They have a maple three piece neck with Grover tuners and a 25-5/8" scale. This is the hard to find Classic version of the Prestige which has a blonde finish as opposed to the Standard version which is black.

It is all original and comes with the OHSC. The guitar is in very good shape with only a couple finish chips on the top as seen in the photos. (I am not one to hype the condition of any guitar I sell. I will understate it's condition if anything. That is a pet peeve I have with sellers in general.)

It is listed at $1650.00 on Reverb but PM me and we can talk. I generally like to use PayPal as a payment method. It is currently listed on Reverb but if an LTG member buys it here a portion of the sale will go to support LTG.

Rich, the body dimensions are the same as the X-170; 16-5/8" lower bout and 2-1/2" body depth with an arched back. It's like they took an X-170 frame and attached a spruce flat top to it. Very unique.

Please keep all comments in this forum to the specific item in question.

I've been guilty of this myself and had to delete my own post.

Price drop for LTG members... $1250.

I took a second look at the pricing on this one. It is still a great guitar just at a better price.

I will lower it on Reverb as well but at $1450.
