BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO BUY ONLINE WE OFFER A 48 HOUR “NO QUESTIONS ASKED” RETURN POLICY. EBAY HAS RECENTLY REMOVED THE OPTION OF HAVING A 48 HOUR APPROVAL PERIOD.

PLEASE CALL US IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS AT 718-218-8201. WE REALLY WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY IF THERE IS A PROBLEM PLEASE CONTACT US!!!! THANK YOU!!!!ITEM DESCRIPTION This Guild Artist Award was made in Hoboken in 1962. This is a VERY early example of this model and it is extremely rare. The guitar plays great and sounds really incredible. The guitar has changed tuners. The guitar has a George Van Epps String Damper mounted where the truss rod cover goes. The individual we acquired this from insisted this was a factory option from Guild, but we think it was more likely installed by the original retailer when new, as these string dampers were actually a Gibson product. The guitar has also been refretted. Otherwise the guitar is all original. There is some normal play wear including dings, dents, and scratches, but there is no structural damage. It has been pro-setup and plays great. It comes with a very large non original hard case. Feel free to ask questions, or call us for an in-hand description at 718-218-8201.

We are a small family owned business, and we REALLY want you to be happy with your purchase, and for this reason we offer the 48 hour approval period. We do our best to describe all items as accurately as we can, but sometimes we do make mistakes. If we make a mistake, please just call us and we will find a resolution. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS We are happy ship items world wide and international bidders are always welcome. That said, here are a few extra things that our international customers should know: (1) We will not falsify customs documents. Doing so constitutes fraud and is illegal both in your country and ours. People have gone to jail over this, and it is absolutely not worth it, so please don't ask. (2) Our return policy applies to international bidders, so if you are not happy you can return it for a refund of the purchase price, but please note that we will not refund shipping charges or duties, just the purchase price. (3) We always try and ship items as quickly as possible. When we pack an item for shipment we call the carrier to come pick the item up. International bidders should know that it sometimes takes the carrier several days to come and pick up an item. This causes some minor delays. There is nothing we can do about it, please be understanding that these delays are not our fault. 718-218-8201
