Description: Description "The real pleasure of a heavy Westerly factory-era Guild!" Made in the Westerly factory with a solid build. Made in 1980. Features include a spruce top, laminated maple sides, arched laminated maple back, 16-inch body, block position marks, and Chesterfield headstock inlay.There are dents and scratches, chipped edges on the headstock, dull paint, and dull metal parts, showing signs of wear and deterioration. The screw part near the nut of the truss rod cover is cracked, and tape has been applied to the back to prevent it from coming apart. The fingerboard was probably shaved to fix the neck, and the fingerboard is slightly thinner near the nut and end. It appears to have been refretted.The neck is currently straight, but because the neck angle is shallow, the string height at the 12th fret is high, about 3.2 mm on the 6th string side and about 2.2 mm on the 1st string side. There is not much room for the saddle height on the 1st string side, so it seems difficult to lower the overall string height in a balanced way by cutting the saddle. The truss rod has been confirmed to work 60° left and right, but the movement in the tightening direction is stiff. About 70% of the fret height remains. It comes with an original hard case, but the latch with the key is defective and the hook tends to come off. It may be said that this guitar is not for everyone, but it is perfect for playing with a pick, especially in the low positions. The maple sides and back give it a strong, crisp sound. You can enjoy the essence of Guild from the heavy Westerly factory era.
