1976GuildD55
Junior Member
I am just returning. I am a 47-year owner of a 1976 Guild D55. Bought it June 1, 1976 for $695.00. I had my Martin D-35 stolen and was replacing it. When I saw and played my D55, I fell in love with the sound! I bought it at the original tiny guitar center on Sunset Blvd. in LA. It has been my main ax since, though I have bought and sold many Martins, Gibsons, Taylor’s, Ovations, and others, nothing has ever come close in tone and sustain. This week I took her in to get a new saddle made, a fret filing, crowning, neck adjustment and new nut cut. I thought my “Guilda” deserved some TLC after all these years. Amazingly, she’s never needed anything done but I wanted to get the action just right. Glad to be back on the forum with the greatest guitars ever crafted! I have attached a photo of my CD from 30 years ago so you can my D55.
