Recently obtained a very minty 1977 D-50. Guilds are pretty rare in these parts. Tryn to learn more about this particular model. Plays and sounds wonderful. Is this year considered vintage. What about the bracing-its built like a tank but sings like bird how can this be?
Welcome, and congratulations on your find!
I've owned my '73 D50 since 1976 and I'd say it's one of the very best acoustic guitars on the planet, if not
the best. Mine's in Nashville right now getting a warranty neck reset (after 37 years, not bad!) and I miss it terribly. It's been such a huge part of my life for so long that it's really weird not having it around.
Luckily I have a few others around now to keep me occupied, and most of them have been acquired since joining the group.
Stick around, you'll like the folks here.
And yeah, this place can be hard on your wallet! :lol:
