Guild F-47CE.jpg

I don't think this was ever played? There isn't a single bit of tarnish on any of the hardware, not a scratch to be found. There was one rub mark on the cutaway (likely from the case) that I polished out in a few seconds. I gotta believe that it has spent the past 20 years in its case.

Amazing sound acoustic and plugged in! I think it might even best my F-40...

It was tagged as a 2001, serial AK00XXXX. Has a Westerley, RI sticker so has to be one of the last ones to come out of the factory!

I might trade my F47R for the CE version, but I doubt that trade would ever present its self.

Very nice LesB3. She is a beauty. They are a terrific size. I had a variation for a while and it was very comfortable.

Been playing it off an on all day, and still can't get over how great it sounds, even with the old strings on it. They're some kind of coated string-the plastic is so thick. Can't wait to hear what it sounds like with some 80/20's.
