I’ve got a 1987 all mahogany Guild acoustic. It’s a thing of beauty to play & look at. No patina though :confused:

I could pop round with my cartridge fettling kit :thinking:

Guitars are like buses.
You go to a gig and see a guitar you have never seen before, then go to a gig a few days later and another one comes along.

This one is in rather better condition than the last one, but not played nearly so well, but considering that Nina Violet is a violinist I will forgive her.

Most of them are nothing special but evey now and then something a bit better comes through the door.

He preferred this bass guitar in the mid sixties, cheap at the time, £23.
I lived in Dartrey Terrace in the World’s end and Spike (Stones roadie) lived in the flat downstairs, Brian Jones had a pale green Gretch and Keith played a Gibson (acoustic) at that time.
Good days.
