Guild D50-NT - USA - 1976
Guild built the D50-NT to go head to head with Martin's D-28, and this 1976 example shows why it hit the mark, with solid rosewood back and sides built with a flat back and proper bracing rather than the arched plywood common to many other Guilds of the era. The solid spruce top has exceptional grain, and combined with the C-shaped three-piece mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard, it produces a loud, sweet tone with a perfectly balanced midrange and excellent note definition, every chord genuinely sings. It's had a full professional setup and plays beautifully with a good medium action, and while it shows signs of a life well lived, a likely refret, some bridge work and what looks like a well-executed neck reset, along with a non-original truss rod cover and some minor nicks and scratches on top, it's in good condition for its age and still sounds great. Comes with its original Guild hardshell case.
