Guild D140 USA doubts.

[BobFox]

Hello!
I am offered to buy a Guild D140 guitar. Inside there is a sticker with the serial number TI 158006 (according to the website, is this guitar made in Tacoma?), but on the sticker around there is the inscription "crafted in Corona, California, USA. Made to be played"
Please tell me is this a real instrument?

That's a fake label, BobFox. Presumably the whole guitar is fake.

Thanks a lot!

I would like to see more photos. If it doesn't have a TRC, it's definitely a fake label, at the least.

A "D40" would have been made in the US. A D140 (or any number in the 100s or 200s) would have been made in China and would say so on the label, like my D125 12-string below:

...which is for sale, by the way, lol.

Now I have more photos. Very strange guitar, I think)

Welcome back, Bob.

Thanks for the pictures.

Yeah, that guitar is entirely counterfeit. It might be a nice guitar, but it has nothing to do with Guild.

Yeah, a total fake. A D-140 would be made in China, but could be a Guild. This is neither. The headstock shape is a total mess. And the shape of the bridge is wrong. Oh and the pickguard.
