So that seems to be the "Sapphire Blue Transparent" which would compliment the "Crimson Transparent Red" we saw before.
I wonder why the case is so rusty, the seller is in Southern California, and yes, funny, "Mint/unplayed" but TRC upside down...

Acoustic/Electric?? Was Fender installing pickups on some of these Corona D25s? First one I've seen.

Its pretty but a little more $ than I'd want to pay.

Yes, the two NOS that I have tested in the shop in Germany both have the Fishman Pickup-System installed, so some obviously came from Corona with it.

Oh, and by the way, Jay Pilzer (guildguy) has a really nice Crimson transparent red one for $625 for sale. It is in excellent condition he told me.
The hardcase has some wear he told me and is not original, I guess some were simply not sold with a original hardcase.
I almost bought it but due to the added >$100 shipping to Germany and the roughly 23% added import tax I decided to skip it.

Cannot remember whether someone posted this link, but I stumbled upon it yesterday while looking for something else. Almost my cup ' char, but not quite, like the Ric "Blueburst" better, but then I am a sucker for Mary Chapin Carpenter...sigh :lol:

But isn't it a bit pricey?

Edit: Guess I should have gone back just one page, eh? :oops: :oops: :oops:

My Havens D40e has the Fishman AGP-125 system, and came with an identical case.
For those of us who consider the case to be part of the instrument, note the "period details":
Green plush lining, "TKL" leather tag attached to the "glove box" lid, and " Guild" logo plaque attached to case and with additional "Made to be played" slogan printed on plaque.
I don't know whether or not the case was included with D25's at that time, but it was included with all guitars except D4's in Westerly during the Fender period at least, that I know of.
