❌SOLD❌ Rickenbacher Electro B6 ‘Panda’ Bakelite Lap Steel Guitar, c. 1945

On December 7, 2020 /

The Rickenbacher Electro B6 ‘Panda’ Bakelite body and neck Lap Steel was built from 1935 to 1955 and demonstrated a number of changes over the years including a change in the company name to Rickenbacker. Here we’re looking at a Rickenbacher Electro B6 ‘Panda’ bakelite lap steel, dating to around 1945. As this example seems to not have a serial number (normally stamped on the end of the headstock) dating is established via construction and features. There were three periods of production for these models, prewar, wartime, and postwar. However, there is some overlap in these periods as parts were used up.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson GoldTop Les Paul P90s, 1968

On December 4, 2020 /

The Gibson GoldTop Les Paul first appeared in 1952 and was replaced in 1958 with the sunburst. The original design was dropped in 1961 and re-appeared in 1968. Until the 1954 introduction of the Custom, and 1955 Junior and Special, there was only one model – the Les Paul, available only with the Gold Top finish. The name ‘Les Paul Standard’ launched with the 1959 Sunburst, and along with the Custom model, continued through the transition to the SG body design. By 1968, demand for the Les Paul had increased dramatically, largely due to young Blues-Rock players like Keith Richards, Mike Bloomfield, and Eric Clapton.

❌SOLD❌ Music Man Sterling 4 HS Bass Natural, 2006

On December 3, 2020 /

The Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling 4 was introduced in 1993 with a single pickup, Ash body, and Maple neck with Rosewood fingerboard. In 2005, a second neck pickup became available. Music Man was founded in 1972 by Leo Fender, Forrest White and Tom Walker, originally named Tri-Sonix, then MusiTek and in 1974 became Music Man. Leo Fender was still bound by a 1965 non-competition agreement with CBS, so until 1975 he was a silent partner though he left the company in 1979.

❌SOLD❌ Fender Stratocaster Sunburst 1977

On November 30, 2020 /

Introduced in 1954 and bearing a suspicious resemblance to the outlines of the early Precision Bass, the Fender Stratocaster Sunburst became one of the most successful and versatile guitar designs. Here we’re looking at a CBS era Fender Stratocaster Sunburst, one of the most distinctive of Fender’s guitars and finishes. This example dates to late 1977 and is in good working condition, appearing largely original. The contoured body is Ash, with a Maple neck, here with a Walnut ‘Skunk Stripe’ indicating that the truss rod was mounted from the rear, unlike many Rosewood fingerboard models that have the truss rod mounted from the top, before the fingerboard is installed.
