Copied from dealer I bought from:

“An exceptional late 70's example of a fine Jumbo sized Guild acoustic, a model with the credentials to rival any Gibson J-200 of that era. It's not often you see one of these models this early, it became much more popular towards the mid to late 80's. The guitar has had a professional neck reset, other than that is completely stock with no major repairs or work.

Looking for £1850 or very near offer. Thanks.

    Cheers Lewis. This guitar was a complete impulse buy based on its sound and playability, only went into the shop for some strings! It sounds perfect and has a very balanced sound, not overwhelmingly boomy as you’d expect.
