At the time, they were seen as pretty high-end for a British built guitar. Highest profile user was probably Mike Rutherford. Shergold had a long-ish (10 years?) and commercially chequered history - one of the last of the UK-based volume builders. There's at least one Shergold fan site out there...

Some 'enthusiasts' will chase Shergolds to the ends of the earth, others think they're firewood. Prices reflect this...
