❌ SOLD ❌  Gibson J-45 Sunburst Steel String Guitar, 1952

The Gibson J-45 has been a guitarist’s choice almost since its introduction. Though its tonal representation isn’t always the most harmonically complete, it has a warm, enveloping sound that works extremely well accompanying a singer.

❌SOLD❌ Breedlove Quartz A-Style Mandolin Sunburst, 2002

Here we have a Breedlove Quartz A-Style mandolin dating to 2002 and built at the Breedlove shop in Bend, Oregon. The A-Style body design is sometimes referred to as a ‘teardrop’, and dates to the late 1890’s and was one of the radical innovations made by Orville Gibson, bringing violin-family construction techniques into the mandolin and guitar world. This instrument uses a solid, carved spruce top and maple back and sides. It’s in overall quite good condition for its age, with minor fret and finish wear. A Fishman bridge pickup has been installed with and endpin jack.

❌ SOLD ❌ Gibson ES-300 1946 Sunburst Electric Archtop Guitar

❌ SOLD ❌ Gibson ES-300 1946 Sunburst Electric Archtop Guitar

The Gibson ES-300 was built from 1940 to 1952 as Gibson’s premiere electric guitar, but production halted during WW2 and restarted in 1946. Originally built with all solid woods, on its reintroduction the sides and back were normally laminates, as these resist feedback, an important issue with amplification.

❌SOLD❌ Arcángel Fernández by Marcelo Barbero (Hijo) Classical Guitar, 1971

❌SOLD❌ Arcángel Fernández by Marcelo Barbero (Hijo) Classical Guitar, 1971

Here’s something rare and wonderful – from the top end of the 1960 to 1980 classical guitar world, an Arcángel Fernández gutar by Marcelo Barbero (Hijo) built in Madrid. Arcángel Fernández was a student of Marcelo Barbero, and following Barbero’s death his son ‘Marcelino’ joined the Fernandez shop. Arcángel Fernández is regarded as one of the finest guitar builders ever, particularly for Flamenco models, but his guitars are very hard to come by as many were purchased by collectors.
