Hey there,
have a chance to score a great deal on a used 2000 Guild X-170 B.
Here's an old for sale link for reference: http://www.massstreetmusic.com/store/sh ... ld-X-170-B
Had a few questions before I pull the trigger
First and foremost, can it get a lil' mean and dirty if it needs to?
I'm primarily a rock/blues player. The closest thing I've owned is a Hamer Artist (semi-hollow) and it could hang with an LP any day.
I'm guessing this is quite a different beast?
With it being all maple, can it be described as "bright" tonally?
What are the stock pickups in the 2000 model? (They look like new-school HB1s, but didn't know for sure)
Would a 2000 model be Corona or old Guild model?
Any other links/feedback/suggestions apprecieated.
Thanks so much.
Looking forward to getting back into a Guild!
