That's awesome Dave, what kind of strings are you using? Haha!
Long, skinny metal ones.

I was actually messing with DRC after his anti string thread rant. I should have been more specific as to which Dave I was talking to. That green P90 is awesome too though. Beautiful guitar

The strings I use are the ones my local store stock, Curt Mangan. Are they good? No clue! But I do know that I can get them at anytime.
String threads are fine, I just needed to vent that day. By the way what brand of toilet paper should i use when its humid out and my bottom is sore? Just saying.. LOL.

I am a proud new owner of a 1998 Bluesbird (Natural) #CL001785.....
I swapped out the Seymour Duncans for a SWEET pair of Tom Short's "Marc Ford Humbuckers" ..... This is such a killer guitar! I have always liked Guilds, and I kick myself for not biting the bullet years ago. Better late than never!

Nice guitar, travesty!
How did you adapt the Tom Shorts "Marc Fords" to a 3-screw configuration?

Sorry for the late post, I have a 1997 Bluesbird in transparent red finish. Here is a pic but the quality with the flash is not too good.
Cheers
Steve
I had a 2003 that was very much like Steve's. I gave it to my nephew when he graduated from college, and I miss it. I'm looking forward to getting my new Aristocrat very soon.
Thanks for the welcome guys! RussB, The pick-ups in your Bluesbird has a little metal adapter to accommodate your standard pick-ups. You can use any pick-up you like...... Treem, Yes, this is the same guitar from Chris' Guitar. I can not get over how well this plays and sounds. I am in love.......and I'm a Tele guy. I might have to buy a Bluebird 90 down the road......

I haven't been here in ages, but I sold my goldtop Bluesbird.
Guilds are made to be played, and mine was just collecting dust :blue:, so I found her a good home.
So you can remove my name from the list. I still have my S-100 and my Starfire III though!

Looking at a bluesbird
Hey there, first post.
Don't know where else to post feel free to delete!
Trying to buy this Bluesbird and I don't know what it's worth. I did play it and it's in excellent condition.(one knob is replaced, that's the extent I know of that's not original) please help me find a good offering price. It's from a friend, not posted anywhere else online, so I have time to mull it over. He just asked me if I was interested.
Serial number cl001974.
I called guild and they told me it was a
February 2000 model
AAA maple top
Honduran mahogany
Indian rosewood
Sorry no pic, it looks just like travesty's guitar
For a picture pm brettvadla@hotmail.com

My Bluesbird has a serial number with a CH prefix. Every "Date Your Guild" site I've been to lists the CH prefix as a '90s D4-12 acoustic and nothing else. Anybody here have any knowledge of how that could be? The neck appears to be a normal BB neck/board and doesn't look anything like the D4-12. The serial configuration is CH000xxx
