Highlights
In this business, sometimes a guitar comes in that stops you in your tracks. Some because of how well preserved they are, some because of how much they have obviously been played and loved, and some because of how interestingly they have been modified.
Here are some of our favorites over the years.
An incredibly clean 1961 Gibson Les Paul SG Junior with factory hardshell case.
1959 Gibson ES-335 which stands out as possibly the finest playing and sounding guitar we've had through the shop.
The word "mint" was coined for this 1958 Gisbon ES-175. The original nickel PAF covers still looked like chrome.
Awesome Candy Apple Red 1966 Fender Telecaster with wear in just the right places.
1965 Lake Placid Blue Fender Stratocaster that needs no introduction.
1960 Gibson Les Paul Custom which found its forever home through us.
1954 Fender Stratocaster serial number 0484. Refin with some replaced parts but all '54 Strats are something special.
Very well-preserved 1958 Les Paul Special TV Model with factory stinger.
1965 Gibson Thunderbird II in factory Cardinal Red. Incredibly rare and achingly cool.
Early 1953 Les Paul Standard with a uniquely modified bridge layout.
1967 Fender Jaguar in Candy Apple Red that has evenly faded to a gorgeous metallic orange.
1963 Fender Stratocaster as original as they come.
1953 Fender Telecaster with some serious mojo.
Featherweight 1935 Martin 0-28.
Very clean 1964 Gibson SG Special
1967 Gibson ES-330 sourced from the original owner. Didn't even have finish checking.
Killer 1956 Les Paul TV Model in "limed mahogany"
Basket case 1967 Fender Mustang we lovingly called "Sludge Pump"
This may be one of many pre-CBS Fender Jaguars we've sold, but this was undoubtably the cleanest.
1979 Les Paul Custom in Silverburst
First year 1963 Gibson Firebird III
The most bastardized 1957 Fender Strat you'll see. Was extensively modified in 1972 by Chip Todd of Peavey T-40 fame
1960 Gibson J-45 with factory double pickguards!
Amazing little 1919 Martin 0-18 that weighed under 4 pounds and was louder than some dreadnaughts.
