Love the Ghost knobs

[F30]

Not sure if they are historically correct but I'm totally digging the Ghost knobs on my M75

I agree, I like those knobs. The clear Guild knobs were used from around 1960-1962 before the black knobs were used. Here is my 1962 Starfire II with the clear knobs.

That is very cool with those pickups.

Spectacular guitar, Brad!

I had those on my NS M-75 Gold top, and the G-shields eventually got smeared away. i suggest if you want to preserve them, spray a clear coat over them.

Here’s a nice clean set on my ‘60 T100D. Also looking very good on a blonde T100 from that year (got the SB as regretted selling blonde!) And a less well preserved set on a ‘62 Starfire II. (Sorry the pic is a bit murky, I’ll take another!) Guild always have that little something special - I love the little brass nail ‘O’ dots in the top!

Very nice display - you're a man of elevated taste. Both the T 100 D and the Dyna Starfire are still on my bucket list. I think I may have actually already complimented your fleet.

Well yes, indeed thank you! Thing is there are so many fine points on these guitars… when somebody post a nice thread about one aspect (like ghost knobs) it makes me run back and re-evaluate! And then suddenly my living room is full of lovely age-scented guitars! Fortunately this time my dear wife is away working in New Zealand so I don’t have to put them away… happy chaos!

I know the feeling, MM54... one of the many reasons I never tied the knot - I'd rather deal with chaos than with a spouse,

That's a lovely foursome Mapleman!

 

[Harp Tail]

...would you consider these "Ghost" knobs or rather "Dhost" knobs?

Ah yes, understood! But mine brings her own chaos with ‘cellos, viola da gambas, and harpsichords! So we share our happy, musical, and diverse brands of chaos!

You're a fortunate man, MM54. Your wife must be an incredible musician (I personally adore the cello) and that's a huge bond right there.

I'm sure there are many others who are in happy and stimulating unions. It's simply that I've always felt that I would be the problematic one.
