Topic: NGD Sorta

I'm a huge fan of these old Guild imports called Madeiras. They made a model called the A32-SB for a few years in the early 60's. I got my first when I was six, my second last year (which I turned in to an electric acoustic), and today I've acquired my third. This bad boy is a gift for a friend though.

So excited. Best $150 guitar I've ever bought. smile

Re: NGD Sorta

Well, Happy NGD to ya, sorta! I love old and obscure guitars, I do a little work on em, make em sound and play better, then give them to budding guitarists with the suggestion that they give it to someone else when they upgrade to a new or better guitar.

Re: NGD Sorta

How nice of you to buy a favorite so that you can give it away.  I think your friend will be pleased.

Friends are more valuable than guitars. 

Some friends are more valuable than guitars. 

Some friends are more valuable than most guitars.

Some friends are more valuable than most guitars, but not your last guitar. 

Eh, you probably should have kept it.
