My Guild F 250

[richardp69]

I only have 3 Guild imports but I will say each of them is a very nice guitar including this F 250 Maple. However, I accidentally tore off the cover on the battery compartment.

Does anyone know if I can find a replacement somewhere??? I don't see how it could be repaired?

If you could source another battery compartment from Guild, it would probably be a pretty easy repair I'd think. No harm in asking. It also might be a pretty generic item that you could get from AllParts or StewMac. Is it incorporated with the output jack like this one?

Yes, it does look like that

3D photocopy? (if Guild doesn't provide a replacement part...)

This part looks to be close. Fishman generally has good customer service, and may be able to help you find a replacement.

This, exactly. Call Fishman up and ask them about their GT-1 system.

I think the system in this guitar is the Sonocore AP-1.

OK, Sandy. I looked on the web site and it's not a current model, but it says the F-250E has the GT-1. You know this shtuff better than I, though!!!!

Sonocore or Sonicore ? Seems the latter is right (it is the pickup's name, preamp being Sonitone...)

 

[richardp69]

Update. I did contact Guild not expecting any help. I was wrong. A nice guy named Noah said they didn't offer replacement parts for what I needed. But, he did grab one out of production and is sending it to me.

I never dealt with them under Cordoba but no complaints on how the new owners handled this one.

 

[GGJaguar]

That's great they accommodated you like that!

Perhaps the influence of Yamaha????
