Well, I obviously wasn't happy with the article, as I posted originally. Maybe this article would have been OK ten-twenty years ago, before the internet, but all the guy had to do was go online at his local library and done a little bit of research. Personal reflections are OK, but some facts would have been nice. Not noting the original hollow body version - which has the exact same model number - is just lame. Not noting the whole issue of bisonic vs. Guild humbucker is lame too, especially with the Jack Casady reference. Oh, and of course, no mention of Alembic, which were a fundamental part of the transformation of the Guilds of Jack Casady and Phil Lesh.
If it was someone's homespun website then that would be one thing, but this is a magazine with national, if not worldwide, distribution. If I hadn't just bought an M-85 then maybe I wouldn't be so bummed out, but I was hoping for some real information. But I know the right place to come - here!
