FS: Guild A-150 Savoy Archtop (TRADE PENDING)

Collection in Newcastle or can meet nearby (within an hour or so on the train), otherwise open to shipping! 

Guild A-150 Savoy Blonde Archtop (£795…trade pending)

Back for sale as the original buyer opted to take my Artist Award instead! 

I bought this in Inverness a little over a year ago in practically unplayed condition. It is still mint (at least I couldn't find any marks) and comes with the original sturdy hardcase. This is the newest iteration with the volume/tone knobs tucked away under the pick guard. Lovely flamed back and sides with a solid pressed spruce top 

The one improvement I made was having The Guitar Workshop in Glasgow swap the stock DeArmond 1000 for an 1100 during a setup, which imo made quite the difference (adjustable pole pieces are handy too). The guitar is strung with Thomastik Jazz flats (13s) and sounds pretty strong acoustically, nearly as loud as an Artist Award (which is the closest parallel to this guitar in the Guild lineup imo)

Really are great value and punches way above it's price 

 

Gretsch G6120W-1957 (£1750 NOW SOLD)

A really great guitar that I will no doubt regret letting go, but I need the funds--if something else sells first I will withdraw. Fralin P90 neck and dynasonic bridge. All of the great western appointments. Happy to answer any additional questions!

    That Gretsch is lovely , I think it’s my old one that Marlin fettled to perfection , it’s so playable and the pickup combination makes it a really versatile guitar too.

    Yes, that's the one! Playability on it is second to none. For a trestle braced Gretsch it also has a decent acoustic presence, so has been the perfect couch guitar
