Guild 50th anniversary D-55 - Brazilian back & sides

[MLBob]

Saw this picture on Facebook. I searched the name of the poster here on the Forum, but it returned nothing.
Says it was one of a run of 50 in 2003, and was accompanied by this picture.
Wow!!

Looking for 50th Anniversary Guild d-55

Had one right when they were released but had to sell it. Wish I had not. One of the most enjoyable guitars I have ever played.

Guild D-55 Brazilian Rosewood 50th Anniversary Model 2003 Natural Engellmann Spruce top/Brazilian b | Reverb

Guild D-55 has to be one of the best bluegrass guitars available. It is know for the great deep sound, and play ability. This guitar was made as one of a set of 50, in 2003, with Brazilian stock they had from the 1950s (pre-embargo) in their warehouse since they started making guitars...

NGD - D55 50th Anniversary

Traded my ‘77 D55 + cash for Richard’s 50th Anniversary. The guitar is in near-mint condition and is an absolute cannon. Not too hard to look at either.

Would love to have one of those. Likelihood is low, given the small production, There are a vanishingly small number of Guilds I'd like to own, but this is one.
