Very cool 1965 Guild M-20 just into the shop on trade! While the M-20 is famously associated with Nick Drake, who used one as a prop for a famous photo shoot, it has more in common (tonally) with the student model Martins of the 40's and 50's. The all-Mahogany construction gives it a dry, woody sound perfectly suited to fingerpicking; and it'd record like a dream. This guitar is in very nice condition for its age. It has been refretted; and a new bone nut & saddle have been installed. There are no cracks, though you'll find plenty of scratches and dings scattered across the top and back. Playability is excellent, with low action and healthy saddle height. Priced with hard case.
Condition: Vintage. Fully inspected and set up by TME staff before it ships or leaves the showroom.
