There's a couple of beat up ones on CL out here in Southern California but I'm guessing you want one in good condition?

There is a nice D44 on Reverb right now. The saddle looks low, but everything else is quite good.

The Reverb one looks in pretty great shape to me, better cosmetically than mine, even with its areas of missing lacquer.

Mine has possibly the best bass response of any Guild dreadnaught I've ever owned, or at least right up there with the very best.

The only reason they don't get discussed more than they do, I suspect, is because there aren't many floating around.

Good luck!

Perhaps for some reason the seller is not checking his/her Reverb messages? The guitar is also listed on Craigs List (for $200 less)
You could try reaching out via CL. Link below.

Does that saddle look a little low to you guys or is it just my eyes? Thing I hate about the 1966 d44 they used them van ghent tuners. Almost all I have seen been replaced and to find originals to put back may take years. Looks like bridge was also replaced with drop in saddle not slotted?

You're right. That saddle looks as low as it can go. : (
There's another D44 on the Nashville CL but it looks pretty thrashed.
