Hi All,
First off i'd like to say great forum.
I am looking for some advice on my S-100 that has been sitting gathering dust for over 20 years..... Yes i know only a bass player could be so cruel to such a great guitar...... sorry
I would like to know the date guitar was made, I know i am the second owner and I think it is a 1973 but would like a second opinion.
Serial 55818. Pick ups are stamped Guild made in USA on back if that helps and is the model with the phase switch and studs on the body to indicate control levels (not sure if all S-100's had this)
I would also like to know what machine heads were on this when built, currently have grovers on but there is a second screw on headstock which indicates that there was another set on at some point but i'm not sure if they were added and grovers were original and replaced when sold to me.
So now i have this all dusted down and tested it, all sounds great just a lil noise off the two volume pots when adjusting and a roller missing so if anyone knows where i can get a roller it would be greatly appreciated.
I would be happy to add pics ....just don't know how!
