How much is my Guild guitar worth

I have a 1979 Guild D-50 NT. Anybody know what it is worth?
Thanks,
bigroom

I don't know the significance of the "NT", but Guild still make the D50, with a MSRP of $1800. Condition is everything with an old acoustic, but I'd guess $800 if it's quite a bit worn to more than new price for a 25 year-old in excellent condition. Sorry I can't be more specific, but I hope the ballpark figure helps.

I had a real quick look, and I stress quick, and all I could find was people asking what the NT stood for, no answers... yet.

Non-Tremolo?

:lol: "Non-Tremelo" is my favourite... I have this mental pic of a Bigsby equipped Dreadnought... I wonder if it's Nashville, Tennessee - who knows?

I guess the price for the NT is comparable to the vanilla D50. Do you have a pic of your '79 that can be posted here?

hey bigroom,

I don't know about the D-50NT but the VG price guide values a 70's D-55 between $1,200-$1,600. That's retail in USD. SB

Yes, certainly, glw. You've done enough posts for me to know you wouldn't drop a boob like that. OTOH, Lee has more than enough posts to confirm that he would... :P

It raises the questiopn though. Has anyone ever tried installing and/or marketing an acoustic guitar with a tremolo? I know it's silly, but someone is bound to have had a go at some point.

I'm no expert on guitars,but from what I've read, NT means natural. In other words, not painted. Natural wood look.
