New member - Old fan!

Hello to all. Although I've been enjoying the forum here for quite some time, this is my first post. I find the information presented here fascinating and pretty darn entertaining to boot! While I don't possess the knowledge or expertise that many of the LTG members exhibit, I do share the love of these beautiful and well made instruments, the guitar of my youth.

I currently own several guitars including the three I am posting pics of here and hope you forgive my amateur photography but at least you'll get the general idea. So to all, greetings and keep on posting as I learn something new everytime I log in!! :mrgreen:

1968 Polara and 1963 Thunderbird

1971 S-90

Well, well, well. Now that's a fine lineup. I've always lusted over the S-200 with the mini humbuckers.

I too joined very recently and you're right, there are many knowledgeable people here. And quite open and friendly too. Welcome!

Those are some sweet looking Guilds!

I'm not up on a lot of the models but I have a '72 S-90. Yours has a different truss rod cover and a covered bridge. It's always interesting seeing the changes through the years and it's cool to see what others here have.

Enjoy!

Hey there fab,

It seems that you've got the Guild sexy electric collection. Very nice! Don't worry about lack of expertise here. Most of us are just knuckledraggers with a big love for Guilds. If you're mostly entertained instead of frustrated or offended, then you'll fit in nicely.

Welcome to LTG!

Thanks for the comments and warm welcome. And to quote Rick from Casablanca, "I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship." 8)

If you can stand one final pic, I've included two great axes from the past for your enjoyment.

Fab ....... your avatar disturbs me.

Why are you dressed in a nightshirt, with a truncated dead ostrich on your head ?

That's "way-out-there", even by LTG standards !!

And welcome, too.

I wanted to make an impression and nothing says "notice me" like a sharp outfit!!

I did get a little help from a certain Muddy Waters on this one... :lol: :lol:

Looks more like McKinley Morganfield to me.

A blues legend by any other name still sounds as sweet (especially when he's playing a
T-Bird!)

I just cannot resist a little Otis, after I've been watching Muddy.

Don't mind Coastie.

He's just lonely being the only member with antennae. :mrgreen:


Oh, and sweet looking guitars.
