ksdaddy Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 This was on ebay a couple years ago, apparently they didn't sell it. I sure wouldn't pay what they want, but those pickguards sure made me think about the crush I had watching "That Girl" in 1966 (at the age of 6). If Marlo Thomas was a guitar.....

davidbg63 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I don't remember where it was mentioned, maybe on the old forum, but doesn't a larger or in this case doubled pickguard effect the sustain, volume and tone of an acoustic? If I remember correctly, the enlarged guard can take away the volume of the unwound strings (b,e). Just curious.... [ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksdaddy Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 With the bracing that this guitar would have, the double pickguards wouldn't have much effect. The only way to choke it off more would be to put duct tape over the sound hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Boy Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Was this guitar made for a lefty and a righty?????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksdaddy Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 Naw, those guards came off a 70s Aria jumbo. How they became available is probably the odder question. It's not like they went to the Aria parts store at the strip mall in 1975. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
