Details
Guild introduced the rosewood back and sides jumbo F-50R in 1965 and it has been their flagship flattop ever since. This particular guitar was built in 2002 in Corona, California and it’s a fine example of Guild’s craftsmanship during that period. Unlike a lot of jumbo-sized guitars, which can sometimes be too bass heavy, this F-50R has a well-balanced tone with clear, singing trebles and full, but not booming low end. It’s in great structural shape and very good cosmetic condition. There are are few very minor scuff here and there and one dent in the top that doesn’t break the finish. (It's so light that it doesn't show up in photos but you can see it in person.) The frets are in good shape and have lots of life left in them. Includes the original hard case.
