edited February 2023 in Guitars £
I bought this Guild ST new in the first lockdown and have hardly played it. I think I was bored and it was an impulse purchase. I had seen photos of Muddy Waters playing an original version which might have helped. Apart from a trip to a local luthier for a set up (the nut was cut a bit high when it arrived) it has not been out of my house. I have played it and recorded demos with it but mainly it has stayed in the gig bag. The protective film is still on the scratchplate.  There is a small scratch on the front of the headstock, which the shop mentioned. I probably wouldn't have noticed it till now if I'm honest. Apart from that I can't see a mark on it.
It plays nicely, feels a bit like an SG.
Collect from Leicestershire or meet up if not too far.
It's very light, under 7lbs according to my scales.
I found these specs for a white version online (the shop was out of stock of them though.)

Guild blurb:
Based on the S-200 T-Bird reissue, the T-Bird ST features the same unique, asymmetrical shape, but with a simplified feature set. Minimalist players will appreciate the added stability and reliability of a stopbar tailpiece and pared down electronic controls, while enjoying the T-Bird’s retro vibe. The T-Bird ST’s dual LB-1 Little Bucker pickups are replicas of Guild’s 1960s smaller size humbucking pickups, and offer a range of tones well-suited for a variety of playing styles and genres.
