Permalink Dick Dale rare photo

New Topic
Page 1 of 1

Hello, today I was looking for old things about The King of the Surf Guitar and I found a rare photo that has Dick Dale with another guitar, I do not remember the name of the model but if someone wants I can try to see where I found it to get more information. I remastered the photo for more details send me a private message.

That is a Guild Aristocrat, Model M-75. Hollowed out body with spruce top, light & resonant, with Franz pickups. One of my friends has one exactly like that in black. Late 50s I believe. These are killer guitars.

VG Mag had a writeup about these some time back - https://www.vintageguitar.com/3651/guild-aristocrat-m-75/

That's awesome that you stumbled upon a rare photo of Dick Dale, the King of the Surf Guitar. It's always exciting to discover hidden gems from the past. If you can find more information about the guitar model, that would be fantastic!
I've been on the lookout for some cool wall prints to jazz up my new place. Pictures like these make for a great addition to any decor, adding a touch of personality and nostalgia. While browsing online, I came across a website that offers a wide range of canvas prints. They have some really interesting options that can bring a unique vibe to any room.
