Guild X-350 Stratford (1954) USA
Reference: 6920
This is a wonderfull Guild hollow-body guitar from 1954, the second year of production of Guild guitars. Delivered with a case and lots of goodies. The guitar belonged to a rockabilly player who had custom made Hepcats pickups. Actually, the original Franz pickups (strongly resembling the famous P90s) are on the guitar. The neck pickup was rewound by Benedetti. A vintage Bigsby is on the guitar. A more modern tremolo arm comes with it. The original trapeze with its red fabric is also supplied with the instrument. The case is the original one. A new old part spare selector is supplied with the instrument. Like a lot of Guild from this era, the binding moved a little bit and it has been repair by a luthier.
