This is a stunning Guild Artist Award American Patriarch series I purchased new in the fall of 2015. If you aren't already aware of these guitars, if you do a search for them you will find their reputation and reviews are fantastic. Exquisite is the word that comes to mind in describing this guitar. Its playability is like silk and its tone is totally pleasing and rich. If you're looking for a stellar archtop guitar you won't be disappointed with this one.Its overall condition is excellent plus. There is one ding directly under the tailpiece from a shipping mishap. I show it in one of the pictures with a pick pointing at it. It's under the the tailpiece so it's hard to see, and the picture makes it look worse than it is, but it's definitely there. That is the only issue with the guitar other than normal stroke marks on the pick guard.Price includes very nice Guild case as shown, paypal fees and free shipping to continental U.S. If you require international shipping please contact me to discuss before bidding.Thank you for checking this guitar out and please contact me if I can provide more details.Here are specs I obtained from dealer's site.
