Everything about that guitar says Hoboken to me. Mickey Mouse pups. Steel truss rod cover. Headstock overlay.
I am guessing 1966-1969. The first photo looks like it has a volute (really hard to tell definitely from that photo). The tuners (from the front) also look like the Japanese made ones from that time period.Everything about that guitar says Hoboken to me. Mickey Mouse pups. Steel truss rod cover. Headstock overlay.

It's not about the color, it's that it doesn't appear to be a standard Guild used switch. (Or somebody just changed from the trapezoidal metal tip.)The switch tip color is about as important as the font used on the TRC to me.
