You've seen it already but here it is again in all its glory! As discussed, the pickups are SD Phat Cats and they sound great ;) The guitar is in very good shape and it's definitely the lightest one I have. The phase switch is now a cool killswitch :mrgreen: My crazy year of GAS just gets better and better!

For a while, yes. But there's some stuff bubbling under ;) There are a few more Guilds I would like to have - at least a Starfire IV, Bluesbird, Starfire bass and a nice acoustic one (no idea about the model). But for now I will just enjoy and get to know these ones :)

I just noticed that both of your S-100s have clear pickguards. I've owned five, and all of them have had black pickguards. Funny how that works. Those are three great scores right there.

+2 !!! Wow such high def pix.
Don't they sound great through Orange amps? Every one of my Guild electrics sounds amazing though my Dark Terror. Then again, ALL my guitars except my acoustic sound great through it LOL

I've been meaning to tell you that - IMHO - you got the absolute best S-300: ash/sunburst/HB-1's. Then you went and sprang this stunner on me:

That's one of the best solid body pics ever on LTG. I so need an Orange. :mrgreen:

A thought just occurred to me. Pekka, you take photos of your guitars like Joe takes photos of his birds -- spectacularly!

I don't know why but I first didn't like the clear pickguard that much. Now it has kind of grown on me. Not every guitar has a clear pickguard!

My tone is orange and that's the way I like it! :) I actually have two - my favorite one is the AD30 but that is definitely not suitable for playing at home. It opens up at a volume level that kills little rodents :lol: Rockerverb on the other hand is perfect for low-volume situations.

And I agree about my S300A (even though it's the only S300 I've tried) too! It stilll blows me away and it has held its position as my no 1 axe. It's just so amazing how easy it is to play and how awesome it sounds. It must be one of the most underrated guitar models ever made. I like to think of it as my own little secret - my precious , haha ;)

PS: my camera is the Canon 5D mk II :)

Along with that full frame sensor you must be using a high end lens also? :mrgreen:

and....I just think the clear pick guards work the best for natural finished solid bodies.
