Would that be one of two ever made or one of two made... say, that year?

Good point....don't know anything about them really, sure looked nice though....Don't see them much.
But its a bit like the cap I saw this old man wearing. It said "I'm not as good as I once was, but I'm as good as I ever was, once." :lol: Steffan

What's with the bridge and those pins; there is very little break angle over the saddle ???

Looks like a Bridge Doctor to me.

They used to have a dread Guild with a cutaway at JAM in Stockholm and I'm trying to remember what model it was. Somehow I keep seeing a herringbone pattern rosette in my head. It's all gone now and this was way before I had even played a Guild. God, do I regrett that.

I think you're right ... but I thought they only subbed in one 'turret' pin ... aesthetics?
