This rare 1975 Guild Artist Award guitar was owned by the legendary Dean Markley. He bought it as part of the inventory of the guitar store he owned at the time. When he closed the store, he still had it. It is new, old stock and has never been sold or even played. I think it's a fair bet to say that there would be no other blond Guild Artist Award in this condition.
The Artist Award is Guild's flagship jazz guitar. This fine instrument sports appointments seen only on ultra-deluxe instruments of the 30's and 40's such as nine plies of binding on both the body and the peghead. Even the f-holes are triple bound!
