I going to sell or trade this Guild I bought about a year ago--just never play it.  I bought it because I loved the sound and the burst was very unusual.  Its an amber burst top and beautiful mohogany back and sides.  I just don't need it and am building a new Martin style dread.  It has the deluxe arch top case, green velvet lined with the brass guild plate attached on the exterior.
It really is the nicest Guild I've seen, thats why I bought it, and I've owned D-55's as well.  It plays very fast and I had the action set up at my local shop.  He does better set-ups than I do.  I just took it out last night and put a new set of Pearse mediums on it.  Its a real cannon that plays beatifully.  It has a some light strum marks on the pick guard and maybe a few light ones on the top, but absolutely nothing that can't be buffed out very easily.  Absolutely no fret wear or other issues.  I'm the only owner and its never left my home in my guitar room that maintains a perfect 45% humidity year round.  I'm sure its not but the top looks exactly like Adirondack.  I have many sets of Red Adi and the graining, ribbing and color sure look like it?  All Gloss, BIG Mahogany sound!
Anyone have anything they want to trade?  I'm open to just about anything other than junk.  I'd ratehr trade it for somthing cool rather than sell on Ebay.  I think this was made in 2000?  If interested I can get the ser# and some pics later today.  Please e-mail  s.kolar@att.net

These are great guitars. I have a 2003 D-40 and love it. Good luck, this would make a great guitar for someone who is having the mahogany hunger pangs.
