killdeer43 said:The fellow who just sold me the '93 D4 included a note inside the case. This was the best part of the note:
"I hope you enjoy this guitar, it sounds great. I really believe Guilds are a poor man's Martin, but I never knew why Martins are so much more expensive."
Just wanted to share this little tidbit, :wink:

Whoops, thanks. I'm sure you;re right. I haven't looked at new guitar prices for decades.Ridgemont said:If you narrow your search to new guitars with warranty, you will notice they are eerily similar. The vintage/used guitar market is not a good representation of current day new guitar prices.john_kidder said:Naw, 'fraid not
First 200 Martin listings on quick eBay search go down to $2850, 200 Guilds go down to $1540. And there are many Martins over $10,000, no Guilds at all.
Yes a mystery that is quite unfortunate. I have heard some new F50s and F47s online that I would consider saving for. But, I buy and sell and am hesitant to buy new Guilds due to potential $ loss.6L6 said:I think it was Bing who nailed the situation with a statement to the effect of, "Guild's biggest competition is used Guilds."
Why Guilds depreciate like a new car is a mystery to me. It's great for buyers though...
