andydye Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) [s]For sale is my y.o.b. '77 Guild B-302, only selling as I've commissioned a build by Jon Shuker and need to raise some cash... She's in brilliant 'mojo' condition, some lovely areas of genuine wear but no real battle scars, she's been played but loved. The only slight issue is a crack in the scratchplate (see pic) but it's not in a place that should cause problems. At some point an owner has added a second strap button at the bridge end to permit use of schaller straplocking buttons. Upside of this is she balances perfectly now too when on a strap Cased in a magnificent handmade and definitely vintage hard case that does the job really nicely. Everything works, neck is spot on, frets are great, she plays real fast, sounds huge and looks seriously badass! A few dims... 9.2lb on the scales. Nut width 41mm 1st fret neck thickness 20mm 12th fret fingerboard width 52mm 12th fret neck thickness 22mm Local collection from Sheffield very welcome, can ship within UK if need be.

Paul S Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Two questions, if you don't mind. How much does this weigh? How wide is the neck at the nut? Ta
andydye Posted December 14, 2015 Author Posted December 14, 2015 [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1450091387' post='2929421'] Two questions, if you don't mind. How much does this weigh? How wide is the neck at the nut? Ta [/quote] Good questions and useful info I missed out...will do the measuring/weighing this evening when I get home General comment on weight though, less than either of my p-basses Nut width, less than either of my p basses but not quite jazz narrow I think both tbc this evening when I get home
Stoney Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I love these basses! Great bass at a fair price. GLWTS.
andydye Posted December 14, 2015 Author Posted December 14, 2015 Thanks guys, you're not helping my 'need to sell' motivation there though Weight is 9.2lb ('weigh me with and without bass' method) Nut width is 41mm.
Paul S Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Thank you. A shade too heavy and too wide. Another sleepless night avoided. I do find these incredibly attractive. I guess the single pup version is a touch lighter? Anyway, GLWYS, shouldn't be around for long.
