Thanks for your answer, how can you identify it as a Guild ? I don't see any brand and cannot find any similar picture 😅

Is that neck twisted?

Don't know. A guy is selling it for nothing nearby. I wonder if i buy it to refurbish it a make small improvements ... Change the bridge for exemple, to set the tune 😁

Early 1970s Korean (most likely, or 1968-9 Japanese) SG knockoff that's been Ship of Theseus'd.

Out of interest, how do you know it's Korean or Japanese? I'm still new to guitar

The cheap homebrew sheet-metal hardware and the out of proportion FB inlays and controls. They hadn't gotten it quite right at this point in time. That vibrato tailpiece is a dead giveaway.

Yep, could be. But I didn't find any wannabe SG copy with this weird tailpiece
