Keith Richards played one during a US tour and in England in 1965 and 66. 1960s Guild Freshman 3/4 Guild Bluesbird This guitar appeared sometime in late 1965, possibly as a replacement for the Epiphone Casino that Keith played previously. One of the first gigs ever played with this guitar was The Ed Sullivan Show on February 13, 1966. The guitar was also seen on May 27th 1966 when the Stones performed on British TV’s Ready, Steady, Go. From that point on, the guitar served as Keith’s main axe during the June-July 1966 North American tour. It was seen on numerous occasions, including Cleveland Arena on June 25th, 1966, and at Virginia Beach on July 4, 1966. This seems to be the last to feature the said guitar.
I've got one, cherry red, with a tube amp it came with. I don't have the case (I don't believe the case I have is original) do you ever see the cases? Also, mine is in excellent condition, sounds great, what value would you put on it with the original amp?
I have a beat up 64 with a smaller puckup. I bought it new and wore it out myself. My first guitar.

They're great guitars, I have a 1959 Freshman with a fantastic sounding original DeArmond PU
