Your next Guild??

[F30]

As I look over the Threads here I can see that the "Guild Guitar" thing seems to be an addiction.
I guess it's just par for the course. I haven't even received my F30R and I'm already thinking about my next Guild...
Got to love it. I really would like to get a GAD C2.
I have always liked the sound of a classical guitar and usually have one around but sold mine about a year ago.
It was a Cedar top Tak with rosewood back and sides kind of like the GAD C2.
So I guess that's the one I'm looking at ...Today...Tomorrow ... who knows ... But most likely it will be a Guild :mrgreen:

Well, my guitar collection has sort of reached a carrying capacity. If I get a new one, it means getting rid of an old one. So, in the abstract, among the Guilds I like to get: an M20 and a F20 burst. It probably won't happen for a while, but it's fun to search, ahh let's just say i'm surveying the market. :wink:

It's called GAS for Guild Acquisition Syndrome, and we all suffer from varying degrees of this incurable malady. :roll:

so many Guilds, so litttle time..... and not nearly enough funds to cover the illness...........

Here we go..not everyone's cup of tea but I like it:

F30, I'd seriously consider this one, (thread here) and put the price difference into the likely minor repair. Then you'd have a real US-made Mark II from 1978. That guitar is not too far from me, and I might be up that way Saturday to look at another one. Let me know.

 

[F30]

That is a great deal. I'm looking but trying to recover from my last Guild purchase from just the other day.
And I just bought my Daughter a Baby mahogany Taylor.
I hope someone snaps it up. It does look like it could be a winner.

 

[MojoTooth]

my next Guild(s) will be:

a burst mid 60's-early 70's Starfive IV or V
a late 60's-early 70's M75 Bluesbird
an early 70's D40 or D50
a S-100 C

I want a D55. I know, that would make a double handful of Guild dreads, but, what can I say, I love dreads.

[kevin the bass man]

my next guild- either a B-301 in cherry or a B-402 like Grots ( :drooling smilie: ).

 

[dreadnut]

An F-50/JF-55 or a DV-73

poser,
Great choices. Their size is perfect for 'Nashville tuning' (I keep the M20 strung that way). A completely different flavor that's a welcome break from standard (and nice accompaniment too).

 

[GAD]

Probably an acoustic. A vintage 12-banger or a nice DV-72 if I can find one.

Are you tuned to pitch when using the Nashville tuning or semi tone down or up?
I've used [from High "E" to low "E"] : 12, 16, 11, 15, 22W, 30W
This is really great when playing with other guitarists. Really adds some flavor to the mix.
I'd love to get an M20 for this. I have a 1950's Stella I tune like this and it's about 1/2 size of a standard guitar.
Here it is tuned for left hand for my son...

but he has really takin' to the Sax now. So I tuned it back to Nashville tuning.

I've been looking around for a GF25, this is why...

[SFIV1967]

On my wishlist: A 1966 Starfire XII (or IV) in Emerald Green. But needs to be a real nice original condition one...

[mad dog]

Looking for:

Bluesbird
Starfire III, w/P-90s or without
M-75

 

[marcellis]

My next Guild will be an electric.

Bluesbird? Duane Eddy?

I love the looks of an M-80. But I don't like the weight.

 

[killdeer43]

No surprise here: GF-25.
*Only condition is that the guitar and the money have to be here at the same time! :shock:

It's all about timing,

[Fixit]

A little eye candy for the nylon lovers. Because we all love pictures! This is my 1979 Mark 5 I had a good case of GAS for a few months ago.

And one for Hans, in case this one is not in his data base. CD 00004, kind of hard to read.

 

[twocorgis]

That Mark V's a beauty fixit! They're magnificent guitars, aren't they? I'll never sell my '82; thanks again Tom! 8)
