This is a used vintage Guild M-75CS guitar from 1974. The item pictured is the one you will receive. It has been tested and gone over by the experts at our shop. When a guitar is purchased from us it undergoes a final setup check before shipping to ensure it's playing optimally. It is then packed with care and shipped to your door! (But please be aware that it may need slight tweaks upon arrival due to weather differences, jostling during shipping, etc.). Please read the description carefully and check over all photos for condition and wear. We do our best to describe all items as best as possible and note any wear we find, but please be considerate that it is a used piece and it won’t be perfect (Unless noted as "Mint Condition" or "10/10" for condition). If you have any questions about this or any other piece of gear we have, please let us know and we'll be happy to help!

Condition Notes:

- Condition: 7.5/10

- Fret wear: There are divots throughout but it's playing pretty cleanly at the moment! The frets are somewhat low, but that's pretty common for this era of Guild. It probably still has another crown and polish left in it!

- Any wear of note: This guitar shows various dings, dents, scratches and rashing throughout it but is still in overall great shape and fully functional! It's all just pretty normal players wear from being played for the last 52 years. The only modification seems to just be the original barrel jack being swapped out for a football style plate (Original jack is also included). But that's really it! Again, it's fully functional and totally structurally sound!

- General notes: This is a truly outstanding guitar with a killer vintage vibe! It plays like a dream with a nice thin neck that's super comfortable. It's really resonant overall with a great vibrance to it. The pickups are really sweet and articulate sounding and capture the guitars sound beautifully when plugged in. And the phase switch is a really awesome feature to provide even more tonal options and make the guitar just that much more versatile. It's such a gorgeous guitar that's a true blast to play! You won't want to put it down!

- Accessories included: Original case, phase switch hang tag and original barrel jack only.
