Guild X-500 1994

Fantastic high-end US made 1994 Guild X-500. Made at the original Westerly, Rhode Island Guild factory. Almost totally mint, just has visible wear on the pickup switch.

Plays great with its original low frets, with a very comfortable body and neck. US-made full-body archtops do not get cooler or better value than this.

Includes original hardshell case.
