Sorry guys ive been lacking in the posting of pics but only bc i cant figure out how to upload from my phone...but anyways i can tell the story and post pics later (to build the suspense)...
so i am a rock guitarist (love jack white, dan auerbach, gary clark jr.) and i moved up to telluride to get the **** out of tx..and i was playing a magenta sparkle custom tele at the time...but i was becoming aware of my boredom with the fender aura (even though we all love our historical fender players) and was scared of losing interest in the guitar altogether....soo soon after pawning my tele i look at craigslist and find an ad for a local guild s300d with orig case for $500 .. never heard guild much besides acoustics and not much in the guitar shops i monitored...so i show up and play this guitar for the first time and am like wow...great ****ing guitar, solid mahogany, and feels like it was made for a lifetime..but it was set-up for a synth amp (he actually admitted to never playing it to hear how original pu's sounded) and i had to play it without hearing it stock...so i go home and marinate on the topic and decide whether or not i want to spend $500 on a guitar i cant hear the orig pu's on (they were in the guitar but he had a synth pu' on right after the bridge)...and it takes almost 2 weeks for me to decide yes i wanna buy this guitar (he said he had plenty of offers to ship it across countrt but he wanted to keep it local)...so i actually pay two installments of $250 and buy the guitar that has changed my life musically!....this is what a rock n roll instrument should sound like, those dimarzios rockkkk....all in all
im quite pleased with the deal and will say he told me he bought this guitar from orig owner who had it in a ny guitar shop window for 20yrs bc it was their flagship guitar...i have the orig pricetag and owners manual...love guild!
