It's too bad Fender did some cool shit with Guild for a few years and then stopped, nothing but acoustics now. A lot of Guild fans I know hate the Fender produced acoustics, I don't know if it's mojo hype but they prefer pre-Fender Guilds.

It's weird because Fender made the Gretsch guitars/brand better and made a huge commitment to it.

The Guild hollowbodies and semi-hollowbodies were the guitars I really lusted after as a teenager. I was sad to see them taken down to just acoustic.

the fender frontline 2002 catalogue had a huge impact on me. I can remember studying all of those pages and just wanting to play those guitars so much.
trip down memory lane.

They probably started building the Guild acoustics more like Fender acoustics... which also lack mojo, for the most part.
(I inherited a Fender F-65 that actually plays and sounds pretty good, so there are good sounding/playing Fender acoustics too :P )

It's just a shame about the Guild electrics.

Yeah,I like then too. I think 2002 was the last year they made them.

I wish they still brought out new and interesting models, rather than the standard strat - tele rotation they seem to have.

also, EXTREME TONEZ
