Hi Divas,
Ok but for a chance to identify the marks we need a sharper image. Please try to capture the marks by using macro function or other means.

Ah.. that's better.
The mark on the right appears to be a Portuguese mark (a cockerel's head facing left with the numbers 833 beneath contained in an oblong punch with clipped corners) this indicates that your pendant was assayed at Porto and is of the second standard 833/1000. The mark on the left is likely to be the makers mark, hopefully it will ring a bell with another member.

Trev has very Sharp eyes. I only can add a little extra; from 1985 until 1998 this left facing rooster head mark was stamped on items that were set with gemstones or pearls. The mark was proof that appropriate fees at the time of hallmarking have been paid by the jeweller. And as we can see; additional fineness hallmarks should also be present I believe in this case the 833 . Your guitar pendant has been made somewhere between 1985-1998.
