When the day comes and I have the funding, I would like to add a Guild electric to my stable. But I'm not sure which one I should be looking for. I was wondering if I could get some help from those well-versed in the hollow and semi-hollow world.
I own an Epiphone Dot, and while I love the sound, I've really been itching for something with a single sharp cutaway, in sunburst, and if possible, a deeper body (but that's not absolutely necessary). Something along the lines of the Gibson ES175, I suppose. But I don't understand the difference between all the different Guild Starfire and X-series models. What's going to be the main difference between a full hollow-body and a semi-hollow?
Also, I've always been used to a stoptail and tune-o-matic bridge. Not sure what difference the harp tail piece will make.
Sure would appreciate any help in pointing me in the right direction!!
