Son of a bitch!!! *
This was pretty much top of my small-bodied guitar list, along with the M20 or some kind of LG, if money wasn't an issue.
These old Guild acoustics are so elegant & classy. Simple, straight to the point & most likely great to play (on the ear & the fingers). Great little story attached to it too.
Congrats!
* Er......did I say that out loud?

You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.

Woa, that's a neat little Guild! How does it sound? And how much was it, if you don't mind sharing that information with us?

Beautiful, Maggie!! My F-30 is amazeballs, and I’m sure your F-20 is no different. Such great guitars.
The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

Really easy to play, flatpick, fingers, and combo. The notes just jump out of it.

That's wonderful right there! Congratulations.

With tax and shipping just under $1400.00. Worth every penny. And if it weren't from my friend, Deb, who covered the part I couldn't pay, I wouldn't have it.Cornelius Plum wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 12:48 pmWon, that's a neat little Guild! How does it sound?

So, of course, I named the guitar, "Deborah."

I love Guilds: my main acoustic is a mid-80s Westerly-made sunburst D40. It doesn't have a name though.

Re: NAGD...oh...and one more thing.
I had a friend with an F20 and a D-something, and they were both so good. I've been chasing after a Guild, with the right mojo, for over twenty years, and just now, found that for which I was looking.Cornelius Plum wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 7:42 pmThat's a good deal!Maggieo wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 4:09 pmWith tax and shipping just under $1400.00.

You know, "Maggie" is a good name...

The setup is good and it plays easily. It's got "gypsy jazz" silverwound strings on it, and they really suit it; they bring out the best in the guitar and make it less nasal than other examples I've heard.
