Wondering, but maybe it's obvious to everyone else:
What was the point of moving the tailpiece closer to the bridge? Looks like it started happening with the 1976 models:
Although...Cos' 1975 S-90 has the closer arrangement. The '75 catalog shows S-100's still with the larger spacing (of course they weren't too picky about their adverts having current images. Some of them showed gits from previous years in later catalogs).
Guild went back to the larger spacing with the 1990's reissue S-100.
