That's the one Cappy and I are talking about. Someone here has one, and I've been trying to describe it to my wife and these guys. The only picture I've got is in an old Guild Gallery magazine.

The hand-shaped five-piece Maple neck has a select Ebony fretboard with Guild's unique "Deco" series fingerboard position inlay. Now available with a hand-bent Florentine cutaway as a special option, the Valencia is offered in Blonde, Antique Burst or Black nitrocellulose lacquer finish.

Hi Tim: if you say so. I'm only confirming what the text says that appears on the webpage with the posted photo. cjTim said:@capnjuan: Not sure if im interpreting your post correctly, but the 97 refers to the 45th anniversary guitar. The valencia in the pics are from a 98 build.

OUCH!!! The one unforgivable sin. Stealing another mans guild guitar.
Very sorry to hear that. Did you by chance save the serial #. Maybe one day it will pop up on ebay. You can do the old...can i stop by and check it out. That is with a police escort. lol.
Will certainly let you know if I come across any.
Tim.
