I bought a new $700+ Guild Starfire Jet 90 gold top for the 3 famous GUILD FRANZ P90 pickups anchored to a chambered mahogany center block with Tremelo. Then I went down a rabbit hole with it. I had Bill at Barney’s Guitar Service replace the price point bridge with a GOTOH Tune-O-Matic ROLLER bridge, and the price point tuners with Hipshot LOCKING tuners. Bill then replaced the price point plastic nut with a BONE nut ( should I have used a roller nut? Maybe but bone makes it a tone machine ) and set up with flat wound 11’s. Now it’s Excellent and way better than new. Too nice not to put in a hard case, so I bought a Guild case. Now I have another $500+ in it! All the issues the reviewers didn’t like have been corrected. BUT ~ I don't really play electric and never use it and good hot damn if I’m Lyin’ I don’t even own an amp. What do I do with it now? Sell it at a loss and let someone enjoy it that will actually use it? Okay My loss your gain. $800 or it will stay in the case. Don’t let this beautiful guitar languish in the case! It needs to be played! Got something interesting to trade? Let me know what you have. (other than another electric guitar)
