Yikes...an A50 burst in my neighborhood-followed me home

[davismanLV]

I'm with you, Joe. As soon as the bursts start looking orangey or reddish, I don't like 'em. But a nice brown with gold or yellowish tones.... and I'm good.

Well that was sure a surprise addition..and a mighty good on too. 8) Beautiful guitar Steffan, and congrats on getting it. Sure looks like a keeper to me.
Very nice!

Congrats!!!!

Pics when you can, please!

There are some Pics near the beginning of this thread, pg 1....but here is a picture of what a re-set should look like...pretty much perfect...he blended the lacquer perfectly and ended it where the wood ended and the binding began...have to look carefully at the guitar to even see that. I'm very impressed Steffan

Congrats! I've got one that I don't bring out often enough. Fun little guitar. I think mine sounds like a mini DV52.
Enjoy!

The Guild catalogue page that Joe referred us to is from 1996, I think they only were made in 95/96. This one still needs a bit of playing in....might apply for that job 8) Steffan

Thanks everyone for the congats...now....where did I put that rent money again.........oh yeah Steffan

No need to hit the street.......Throw a good old fashoned "Rent party",,,That used to work in the old days, It's worth a try again. Make some music, and pass the plate.

Hello folks,

Yeah, I'm up now! According to my research it's a little less than 250.

She's a beauty! What year was it made?

That particular guitar is from 1996.
