Al, appreciate the comments & observations.
Re 16th vs 14th fret - that would explain the different ergos - will check it out.
It is a sweet guitar. Didn't really know what to expect when I stumbled
on to it, but worked out a deal and glad I did. This and the Songbird and I
guess some of the other acoustic-electric cutaway non-dread guitars occupy an interesting place in
Guild history. Also have an F15CE-M that's been away getting worked on, all-hog,
another sweet, interesting acoustic-electric Guild. I'm guessing the
body depth is same or similar to Guild dreads of the period.
