Case for 1950s F-30

[Darryl Hattenhauer]

Guildudes,

I just bought a 1959 F-30 tenor, and I'm wondering what in the heck Guild used for cases on these. In the 1950s, this was their only 15-inch wide guitar. (They should have called it the Mia Farrow model.) All of the wider models were 16", 16 1/4", 16 3/8", or 17", and all of the narrower ones were 13 3/4" (the Twiggy model), and 13 1/2" (the Karen Carpenter model).

Did they use the same size case for 16", 16 1/4", and 16 3/8" wide guitars? Did they put the F-30 in a case big enough for 16 3/8? Where am I going to get the right fit for my 15 incher? Liz Taylor's House of Guitars?

So, you're looking for something for your 15 incher? Hmmm....

Stop by and we'll have a look.

Liz :wink:

Seriously, I wonder why she hasn't made any movies in decades. Is it because she doesn't want to? Or is it because she's so flaky that nobody would hire her?

Could be, could be. Or maybe because she doesn't look like that any more....... :roll:

Nigel,

I don't know squat about acting and movies etc., but I suspect that Liz Taylor could get a great part (besides mine) if she wanted it or the producers wanted to..., uh, give it to her. (BTW, and this is the truth, I'm named after a famous Hollywood producer, Darryl F. Zanuck, who humped them all, incuding Marilyn.) I'm guessing that a lot of producers would jump at the chance of having her in a movie (or having her at home). But maybe she could get only a walk-on or cameo because they couldn't rely on her to show up every day, and I imagine she's not interested in small parts (like Coastie's).
