Hi
I'm a new member - I just bought my first Guild archtop, a sunburst x-50 with a single coil pickup. I'd like to find out when it was built but the serial number is EA 518 and all the websites state that the x-50 was only built until 1969 and the highest number was 506. Could any one of you Guild mavens help me out?
By the way - it may have been Guild's cheapest archtop but I play swing blues and the guitar absolutely sings (and it doesn't feed back as much as my ES 125)!
Thanks
Pete
