"An early specimen of a pioneering acoustic electric guitar. Made in the first full year of production by the combined brilliance of the Guild luthiers. All original as it came off the bench, it retains vintage feel, despite its age has only very few minor dings and somehow knows the tunes better than you. A sad farewell to an old friend and great guitar"
John Tams
