This beautiful guitar has been sitting in a case for at least a decade.  It is all original, and still classic.  I can't find another one like it anywhere on the internet.  The M-30 was not all that common.  This is a rare piece.  The serial number is only 4 numbers, and hand written.  All official records were destroyed in the Guild Factory fire, but it is estimated this serial number dates back to 1953.  My father was the original purchaser, and owner.

Yes, there are cracks in the wood, from age.  You can see this detailed in the pictures. No repairs or refurbishing have been done to this guitar, as I believe it's value (as a collectors piece) is in original condition.  It comes with its own carrying case. 

This guitar sounds like a great all mahogany guitar should. Warm, sweet, and clear. This one has that  "wow" factor that awesome vintage guitars have. It just feels and sounds great! The Brazilian rosewood fingerboard only adds the the beauty and tone of this instrument.

This is a must have collectors piece.  I will entertain any reasonable offers!  Any questions, feel free to ask.
