SPG currently builds Guild's Newark Street Collection. For dating, see Serial Numbers. For serial numbers that dont fall on this chart or for specific parts for your vintage Guild Guitar you can contact Hans Moust via his website. Please note that if your serial number does not fall on the dating charts on this website it was most likely build on or after 1999 until the Westerly shop closed in middle of 2001. The Guild S-300 was launched in 1977, effectively a replacement to the SG-style S-100 solid body guitars. Guild had not tried any particularly original solid body designs for several years, so the S-300, (along with its companion S-60 and S-70 guitars, and B-301 and B-302 basses) was a welcome change for the guitar buying public.

Guild Guitars was formed after the old Epiphone Company was sold to Gibson in the early 1950s. The earliest Guilds look just like the last NY Epiphones. The guitars are usually fitted with great-sounding D'Armond Pickups or DiMarzios on later models. On most hollowbodies, the original pickguard is made of clear plexiglass with a logo screened on the back, then lacquered black. Fender has asked us not to use their Trademarks on our products, so we usually just use black plexiglass (color 55). On the solidbodies, the original guards were usually 5-ply black/parchment bakelite. As most Guild bass owners know, the bakelite material is very brittle & breaks up at the output jack. For these, we usually use our color 122, black/parchment 5-ply, which looks the same but is much more durable. Click here for a list of Guild serial numbers. Guild was owned for awhile by Fender, it is now owned by Cordoba Music Group.

This page also includes pickguards for DeArmond imported guitars.
