Thanks to GAD for the review that got me interested in these things.
And thanks to Six Flags Gear America in Chicago for selling one of these at a price I could afford on Reverb!
And to Phil at Guitar Merchant in West Hills, CA for the great set-up and polish! Plays like a dream! Couldn't be happier!!!

Very cool! Would love to hear this guitar in person one of these days : ) What are you playing it through?

Yeah that looks like a very nice and clean S60. Congratulations.
Out of interest would you rate this as a heavy, light or just right guitar?

Right now my house is under construction so I don't even know where my amp is but Phil at Guitar Merchant let me annoy the crap out of his customers by letting me play for a while through a Fender Twin and a Boss Metal pedal. Sounds fantastic!
I usually rock out through a Positive Grid Spark with 60's rock settings.

Someday, I'll get my hands on one of these crazy-shaped things!(drool....drool...) Congrats!!
By the way, your pics have stirred my vague desire for a clean, clever, efficient storage of guitar stuff , which has been a casus belli for a long time with my lady.No fooling,this will probably be my 1325th "foolproof global organisation "plan....Ah, to know instantly where things are!!!This yellow piece of furniture seems attractive, might be the Allman's name....

Thanks again! What do you think of the knobs? Are they original but lost the Guild decals? I have no idea.
Those are the correct knobs and they never had Guild logos on them. Credit to Hans who let me know back when I thought they weren’t original.

I wish my guitar stuff was this organized! I took these pics at Guitar Merchant in West Hills, CA while my daughter took a piano lesson. Their tech does all my setups.

I loved the sound of the S-60 I bought from GAD years ago, but could not bond with the thin neck! Very cool, congratulations!
