NGD: 1991 Nightbird CU

[drc]

I finally own a Nightbird with HB-1’s! Not gonna lie, that took awhile! Thanks to @Chrigell for a smooth transaction. The guitar arrived safe and sound and I’m very happy.

The serial number is BL100621, so maybe 1991 (thanks GAD)

The neck is massive! I think it might put the Blues90 model to shame. I’m going to purchase a caliper soon and will report back on the measurements.

they just keep getting prettier!

I prefer the word handsome

 

[zulu]

That, too!

Dibs!

Nighbirds with HB1s are hard to beat. Nightbirds are probably my favorite Guilds which is saying something given how much I love my S300s, but a Nightbird with HB1s? Yum.

Congrats!

Congratulations on your recent acquisition drc!

Yours is the most attractive Nightbird I've ever seen, and I'm sure it plays even better than it looks.

Congrats drc! I’m glad to see that you’re the one who got it. I know you were also interested in the red one I bought last year, so it is more than fitting this one found its way to you. Enjoy!

Not 100% on the actual year, serial number BL100621, but I don’t care!

The neck is massive! I think it might put the Blues90 model to shame. I’m going to purchase a caliper today and will report back on the measurements.

Thank you, David. Makes me happy that you're happy, and your words about the necksize give me hope that 90ies Guilds might not be off the table for my small hands after all.

The sound of this really is outstanding! I sure wish Guild had gotten the new HB-1s closer to these...
