Hello! I'm selling my Guild M-65  Freshman. The M-65 is a hollow-body  guitar with one single coil pickup. This is a sunburst model with white binding from 1972.  It's a full scale - 24", which is hard to find. It's the most beautiful guitar I've owned.

Features:
  • Original electronics, "Mickey Mouse" pickup, pickguard, bridge and hardware - except I replaced the tuners with open-gear Grovers. I'll include the original tuners.
  • Professionally set up by Brooklyn Lutherie. Low action, no buzzing, minimal fretwear. It's a great player with a woody tone
  • Super lightweight - I think about 4 lbs. The Westerly era Guilds were very well constructed
  • Comes with a non-original Peavey semi-hard case that is not an exact fit, but protects it well.
Condition:

For a 48 year old guitar, it has not been played much. Overall it has very little playwear.  The sunburst finish just glows.

The headstock has some wear on the top edge. There are what appear to be some cigarette burns on the upper bout. See the photos for these. There are some shallow scratches in the finish, rather than the wood, visible on the back if you look closely.  Pickguard has scratches from my playing.

Continental USA only. Thanks for looking!
