Hiya guys, I have a question for the historian(s)that may be here.I have a '76 S-100 that seems a bit irregular to me.I can find NO pics of an identical one like I can the rest of them.I've seen the ones in natural with the Bas-relief Oak leaves,the cherry red ones with the bound,block inlaid necks and a Hagstrom wangs.I 've seen white ones,and even one with a Burns wang bar.Jay Pilzer has seen it and it stumped him....
I don't have any good pics to put up of it yet,but I'm working on that so for right now I'll have to make do with verbally describing it.
1.white finish,w/short spaced tailpiece,shaller tuners and roller(heard it called a Muller) bridge.
2.1 5/8th" at the nut,the others I've seen were 1 11/16ths".
3.unbound,with dot inlays,not blocks w/ binding.
4.(and this is the biggie)clear,w/black "Guild" logo and not a black,guard plate.
Is there a possiblity this one was ordered rather than off-the-shelf?
I bought it in '92 and it's been my good right arm the whole time I've had it,I don't know what I'd do without it...It's ugly though-the finish is leaving it rapidly.The neck is 1/2 bare and there are patches missing in various places on the body,but it's all original-no SD's or DiMarzios,factory HB-1s which I'm MAD about! Any ideas? :?:
