And I hate it!!! :lol:
I was so in love with my friend's Westerly D25 that I just HAD to have one myself. I could not, for the life of me, find one locally that I liked or could afford, so I bought this Corona built factory second one. Paid $700 + shipping. Seems like that's what they were selling for new , now that I look into it. Doh!
Anyway, it's a beautiful guitar. I have always loved the look of Guilds (such nice looking headstocks and pickguards ) It is just TOO bright for me. I like a nice rich sounding guitar with good bass response and this D40 just DON'T GOT IT! My buddy's D25 is much more close to the sound I like. It was a tad disappointing to find that this guitar sounds nothing like it.
Is this pretty typical though for the Corona built Guilds? I've been around town playing some of the new Tacoma built guitars and they seem to sound pretty similar.
All the GADs I played sounded much better to me than the Tacoma Guilds. Am I allowed to say that in my first post? Is that blasphemy?
I surely don't want to drop $300 to have it scalloped and risk still not liking it. What on Earth shall I do?
Oh yes...I'm Tyler and I enjoy long walks on the beach and nice rich dreadnoughts around the camp fire.
