Lapetrarca53,It was 1994 and a friend of mine was a luthier for Guild when they were still in Westerly. We got a gig at the annual Guild Christmas party. At the time, I was playing an Epiphone EBO bass.
When I opened my case, a Guild Product Manager saw my Epi and she asked if I'd like to try out a Pilot bass. I agreed and off she went to the factory to grab one for me to play. Played it all night and fell in love with it.
At the end of the night, she approached me and informed me that, since the bass has been played, they couldn't sell it as new and asked if I'd be interested in purchasing it as a factory demo at a GREATLY price.
I jumped on it and, since then, it's been my workhorse ever since.
At a GREATLY price, I just don't see how you could turn it down.
