...and a day early too! Fed-Ex tracking had it arriving tomorrow, showed up today? That's a first, and a relief, one less day in transit.
First of all I have to thank the seller and fellow bb-er Thorn (Ron). Amazing guitar at a great price and he was a pleasure to chat with on the phone.
Secondly, this guitar is spectacular!! Amazing tone. Awhile back I inquired in a thread of how a Blues 90 would compare to a Gibby counterpart and someone responded that the Guild would "smoke" the gibby. Being partial to some of my Gibbys, I took that with a grain of salt........yet I was intrigued. Well I have to say, that statement is pretty accurate, definitely smokes my LP Studio, and I'm still A/B ing it against my Gib BluesHawk. Two different animals because the Hawk doesn't have true P90's, they are actually Blues90's (go figure) that have hum cancelling dummy coils, a kinda P90 / humbucker hybrid.
Anyway, I took the rest of the afternoon off to check this baby out, so I leave you with my pic of "Blues Heaven".........
My Gibby Blues hawk, Fender Blues Jr., and my new Blues 90............
