I am trying to find any info I can about the top-of-the-line Classical guitar built by Guild in the 1960s-early 70s. As I understand it, the Mark VII Custom Classic was a special-order instrument. It was made in Hoboken, with Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, and a spruce top.
These guitars make a large sound. Serial numbers started with CF, same as the MK VI.
What I am trying to find out is:
1. How long were these made?
2. When did production stop? (I think it was 1971, but not sure)
3. Any other info available.
I bought #CF-244 in 1975. Shortly after I got it, I wrote to Guild, and they sent me a letter stating it was built in 1971. They did not offer any other information.
If Mr. Moust is listening: you and I briefly corresponded about this last year. You may recall, I sent some pictures.
Any help/info greatly appreciated.
