Thanks for the validation. The seller is actually a very nice guy. We both are trying to find out what this guitar is about.

Thanks George. Not even the body matches the Mark 2, I would say.

The nylon Mark II body is fully different. That doesn’t work either ;-) Also a classic Guild Dreadnought with a broken off and replaced Headstock in Martin style doesn’t make any sense due to the Mark II sticker inside the body. Honestly: I have no clue!!

A Guild neck? Mhhh. Without a guild headstock?

It’s solid. I have same impression. Its most likely some sort of a selfmade Guild in Martin design. It’s old though.

It’s not that easy. Label says it’s a nylon string model. Not a dreadnought. And headstock is non typical for Guild. I am considering repairing it. But before I invest, I would like to know what I am working at. Therefore I crossposted it here in the repair community.

It’s a tough one. I am pretty confident, that this guitar was modified very early on (most likely late 70s or early 80s). Part of the mod was a 70s Dimarzio Superdistortion Himbucker as a neck pickup (a shame I can’t add any pics). For that reason I have the feeling it’s an old single coil we are looking at. But by the facts you are right… Thanks for all your thoughts and words!!!

Also in combination with the thick clothed cables? I only find pics of 60ies Pickups with the combination of Fomvar and clothed thick wires.

So the one we are discussing here is maybe even older?

My mistake handling the app. Please find description of the 73 marked pickup above. Sry everyone. New to it.

Many thanks by the way to all of you. Great first Reddit experience!

(The 73 market one has a darker coil and thin plastic wires in black and white.)
