Looking at Guild’s dealership map here in the Northwestern US, it seems to have grown considerably since the last time I looked. I’m guessing this might be the “Yamaha Effect.” Regardless of the how or why, it’s nice to see!

That would be great to see guild dealers near me. I could try out all sorts a models I never have access to here in the Guild desert mid-Atlantic area.

This would be good since it seems like Cordoba didn’t really have the distribution network to get Guild into a bunch of different shops. It would be nice because I haven’t seen a Guild locally since right before the end of Fender’s ownership of the brand.

I think the other part of the equation that Yamaha will need to address is production output. You can have lots of dealers, but if the factory can only make twenty D-40s per month, not every dealer will be able to get one.

Ditto here, and even longer. Having only 2 domestic-build stocking dealers in the entire SF Bay Area just don't cut it.
