Part of the problem is the lining is coming apart....
And for whatever reason, the case seems a lot tighter than the fit on the one with my D-15, or any of the other genuine cases.

Mine is anything but mellow. Very bright - almost brash - but I agree that the sustain is fantastic.

I really like the back on this ash-body guitar. The craftsman at Guild did a fine job of book-matching on this one! :applause:

Ahhh,
I'm a shy finger-picker. Delicate one might say. If this one was staying, I'd be sanding the be-jesus out of the saddle and dropping the action. But not knowing how Stu attacks - with or without a pick, it'll stay strong and tall to fight another day.

She Who Must Be Obeyed keeps commenting on how beautiful the wood is, too. He he he. Now I just gotta talk Herself into authorizing one for me.

I am a strummer and lazy player. I do not want my fretting hand to have to work overtime. I might come up with a few intros or play a few country licks but they have to be easy on fingers. Bet the first thing I do is drop the action so go ahead and suit yourself-you will save me a little money. Ha

Free is good.:courage:
The back of that headstock looks like ash too.

A-yup. When I saw the comment about "no finish" on back of neck I looked again to see if it might be padauk which had known adhesion problems, and realized it was an ash neck, too..
Yeah, nice piece of ash!

The back of the neck's finish was scraped off, probably from sliding down a table edge or something.

Thanks! I'm sure I would too!
Since I don't expect to do much traveling myself for a while, if you're ever comin to San Jose shoot me a pm.
And since I have 3 guitars (Guilds, anyway), even if one's in the shop I've still got a spare for a buddy in need!
:friendly_wink:

Cannot get a better offer than that. And should I ever wind up in San Jose-will do

Stu, you got nobody to blame but yourself. You said "feel free".
So I got into the spares drawer and pulled out a compensated bone saddle, sanded to fit, and OH MY!!!
My world view has changed. To paraphrase The Treasure of the Sierra Madre: "amplifiers, we don't need no stinkin' amplifiers!!"
This thing flat stands up and SHOUTS!!!
Soooo, travel plans are cancelled. I am spending the weekend making music, not war. With my new love.:love_heart::love_heart:

ROTFLMAO.
Reminds me of one of the guys in Jersey Shore hijacking the girl his buddy was tying to pick up on when said "buddy" goes to the men's room....
Yeah my guilty little secret.
I love cheese.
