This 1972 Stratocaster is a one owner original guitar time-capsule that still retains it's original 3 position switch!   The electronics are original and shows that the pots are coded the 42nd week of 1972.  The amazing originality and condition of this guitar is VERY rare.  I have not seen a better example, ever.  The original owner purchased it without the hard shell case and just a standard chipboard case, because of the cost back then.  He later added a hard shell case, but this instrument was never gigged with and lived it's life in a closet at his home.

This is an original 1961 Goya Model 80. This 2 pickup blue sparkle-finished guitar was built in Sweden by Hagstrom Guitars. This is one of the nicest examples we have ever seen. The guitar is of bolt-on construction and has lots of ‘60s appointments with the blue sparkle paired with the blue sparkle pearloid covering, similar to the period drum shells. It is in very nice cosmetic condition and plays well. There are some pearloid cracking that has been bonded to prevent any further movement, which is har4d to see and doesn't affect the playability. The electronics are fully functional and the instrument sounds fabulous! Goya brand guitars were made by Hagstrom in Sweden in the 50's and 60's for the North American market. This 1961 Model 80 with a blue sparkle top has loads of vibe. It has a chambered body and is constructed of wood and pearloid covering. The pearloid back is extra cool. There are two single coil pickups that are selected through a bank of push buttons. Pickup volume is controlled with individual  thumbwheels. The beautiful sound of this guitar in a clean amp is as impressive as it's sound in a distorted tube amp from  the 60's! Original hardshell case included.

By appointment only - local pickup only.     This is a single family owned, early 1954 original Blonde Fender Precision Bass in Very Good condition. This would be a fantastic addition to a professional players' on stage arsenal or to a collectors stash. Please view all the detailed photos to determine condition to your standards and expectations. There is minor wear on this instrument, considering it is 70 years old, as opposed to some others that have been refurbished or refinished - losing it's originality along the way. It is sporting the original 1950's factory see-thru Blonde lacquer finish over the beautiful select grain Ash wood on the body, and the beautiful clear Maple wood neck. The pick gard is original Bakelite material (pre-plastic, like the old dial telephones from that era). The original markings in this instrument that were photographed for this listing show a handwritten note from factory worker "Gloria" in the electronics cavity, a hand written 11-53 in the neck cavity and "TF-3-54" on the neck heel, bringing this bass to a manufacture year of 1954. The serial number is stamped into the bridge and reads 1003. This bass plays, sounds and feels terrific, like an icon bass from this era should. This is a true time capsule and may be the finest example available for purchase at this time. It is housed in a 1960's Fender bass case with the orange velvet lining and black tolex exterior. Because of the tremendous value and collectability of this iconic bass, it is marked as local pickup only. The right buyer of this fantastic find will have to arrange their own shipping or buy a seat on a plane to their destination. We can't risk damage or loss in the standard shipping arena.

This decked out Dreadnought is the flagship model of Martin guitars. The guitar of choice for legends like Gene Autry and Neil Young, it’s the perfect guitar for any discerning collector or musician. Nothing says you’ve arrived like a D-45. The Sitka Spruce top on this guitar is meticulously hand inlaid with abalone as well as along the Indian Rosewood back and sides. No expense was spared when crafting this instrument from the bound headstock, gold hardware, and abalone Martin logo to the bound Ebony fretboard and abalone hexagon markers. An upgraded JourneyTek EP001K passive piezo pickup was added due to the failing factory pickup. The top of this guitar does exhibit some small dings, but they're minute and very hard to photograph. This does not effect the playability of this guitar whatsoever. Hardshell case and owner's booklet included.

This 1966 double pickup vintage Epiphone E-230TD Casino is a fine example of a guitar that made remarkable history with many period bands of the 1960's including the Beatles. After the introduction in 1961, the Casino was just one of several new thinline archtops designed and produced at the company’s adopted new factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan that it shared with all the new Gibson guitars. This great example has a double bound all maple body with the early production warm faded cherry sunburst finish, f-holes, and a bound Brazilian rosewood fretboard with parallelogram inlays. The CTS pots date to 1966 with a code of 1376631.  It is equipped with two P-90 pickups with chrome covers, trapeze tailpiece, and Kluson Deluxe tuners. This one has the sought after large headstock and includes a newer hard shell case. It plays and sounds great and has the period lacquer checking throughout. The original early soft cherry sunburst finish on the face is faded beautifully to a warm burst and the rear walnut color looks rich and attractive as well. It is a great piece of rock 'n roll history, ready for a collection, studio work or gig time. The Casino was adopted by Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones who used one to record the demo for “Satisfaction” at Chess Records in Chicago. Howlin' Wolf took a Casino on his first tour of the UK, appearing on Thank Your Lucky Stars. Paul McCartney purchased his Casino first, loved it, and then John Lennon and George Harrison bought Casinos and used them on the Beatles' 1966 world tour. John elevated the use of his Casino more than the others, using it on many records and videos, then later stripped the sunburst finish and played it on the roof concert sporting the natural wood look. The Epiphone Casino was his most famous instrument while in the Beatles. Because of the tremendous value and collectability of this iconic guitar, it is marked as local pickup only.

Handmade in Japan with select tonewoods and premium build quality, Yamaha's AC5R Concert acoustic-electric guitar offers a vintage look with enhanced volume in the low-mid ranges, due to new scalloped bracing for the top and shorter bracing on the guitar's back. With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides, this concert-sized guitar sounds fantastic. It also benefits from Yamaha's A.R.E. or Acoustic Resonance Enhancement, a high-heat treatment that gives the guitar top greater stability and an aged, vintage hue. The Yamaha AC5R takes full advantage of Yamaha's unobtrusive and versatile SRT2 pickup system for recording and stage performance. You get volume, treble, and bass controls (with auto feedback reduction), and blend control allows you to balance between the piezo and SRT2 preamp, for your own distinctive tone.

Since 1951, the Fender Precision bass has made its mark in practically every genre of music imaginable.

The Fender Custom Shop 1959 Relic Precision Bass pays tribute to the landmark Precision Basses that put Fender on the map in the studios and stages, with accurate detailing including electronics and hardware - from the split humbucking pickup to the vintage tuning machines and bridge. The chrome bridge and pickup covers were included to further the authenticity of this Custom Shop build.

In 1959, Fender added the Rosewood fingerboard and then the Tortoise shell pickguard to the Precision Bass. After the Rosewood slab board was added to the production of these basses, Fender decided to use up the remaining gold-anodized aluminum pickguards before switching to the Tortoise Shell gards, waiting to be introduced. This very short period of time has become a highly collectable version of the Precision Bass, only lasting for a few months. This is the Custom Shop tribute to this highly collectable Precision Bass.

This beauty is an USA Custom Shop made in 2008 and played ever since. It has a real lacquer finish on it, chrome pickup and bridge covers as the original 1959 Precision had, and the vintage style bridge and tuning machines as well. The wear on this bass is relic'd wear produced in the factory Custom Shop facility by mimicking 70+ years of heavy gigging. This bass includes it's original vintage style hard shell plush lined case, owners manual and lacquer finish brochure.
