I am the original owner of my '71 JS II bass. it does not have a label in the control cavity. Hans Moust says that is to be expected for the early issues so the label showed up in late '71 or after. I believe the same thing is true for the S-100's of similar vintage.son_of_gloin said:Any of you guys know if guild put the build stickers on the inside of the component cover in 70 or 71.
son_of_gloin said:Thanks for the info lads. I noticed on the chart that you've made there is a colour code for Sunburst. That's got to be rare.
Well, i've got mine all set now playing nice. We're jamming this afternoon, can't wait.
son_of_gloin said:Yeah, the serial# dates it to '71, and i've seen those old 1971 Guild ads that show the guitar with the trem, no phase switch, and open tuners. But i'm wondering based on some other owner's '71's that it's maybe a late 1970. Some pics of 71's show the stopbar tail piece and phase switch. #53071. Must be a late 1970 model.
The fellow i bought her from was the original owner, played for a country band called The Barnstormers. He bought it in 73, from Long and Mcquade in Winnipeg. He remembers it being a store demo that they never got rid of and basically gave it to him for a fiddle he traded in.
Any of you guys know if guild put the build stickers on the inside of the component cover in 70 or 71. If so, that's the only thing that's missing, that and one of the caps was replaced. Not sure which one is original.
