Sweet Modifications = Sweet Sound | This Thing Has A Beautiful Tone!! | Guild Jazz Archtop Review

In this video, I show you a guitar with a fat, sweet sound that I just bought and am putting up for sale. This Guild X-150 D Savoy was made in Westerly, RI in the late '90s. It has several cool modifications that add to the sweet sound! The Bridge and tailpiece were replaced. The bridge is a Graph Tech Resomax Archtop Bridge and the finger-style tailpiece got rid of those ghost tones from behind the bridge and helped with the sustain. You'll notice in the video that the original tailpiece was off center by about a 1/8th of an inch. The new tailpiece has been perfectly centered. The Grover Rotomatics have been replaced with a new Grover set with the stairstep buttons to continue the Art Deco motif of the pickguard and tailpiece. I love the way this Guild archtop sounds and feels. Let me know if you like it. Please leave me a comment and thanks for watching!
