I am so pumped. I just purchased a '74 F212XL and I am awaiting delivery. I wanted to be a part of this forum in order to absorb as much info as I can about Guilds. And I am really excited about the new plant and what Ren and the crew will be doing. I am a part of AGF but there doesn't seem to be a lot of people talking about Guilds over there. I have always heard great things about Guild guitars especially some of the older models.
