Hi All,
I am a new Guild convert having recently purchased a 1961 X-175. It's a blonde with a few modifications. It has a bigsby, new DeArmond pickups and Grover tuners. It has a bit of wear back and front and a few dings and scratches. It's a great guitar to play, good neck and setup. ( It is the guitar I should have bought 25 years ago). The neck has pearl dot inlays. All photos on the net show pearl block neck inlays on the X-175. My question is did Guild the X-175 come with pearl dot inlays or does mine have a replacement neck? If so do all the mods effect its value? It is a bit academic 'cos I'm still keeping it and playing it, just curious.
Thanks, gmac.
