❌SOLD❌  Fender Precision Bass Fretless Acoustic - Electric Natural, 1993

The Fender Precision Bass Fretless (Acoustic / Electric) is an interesting and somewhat rare custom order model, using a semi-hollow, Spruce top Mahogany F-hole body with Rosewood bridge. This lightweight, resonant body shows influences from the Telecaster Thinline. For electronics, this distinctive bass has both a Piezo bridge pickup and a Lace Sensor split pickup selected by a pan pot, with volume and TBX tone controls.

❌SOLD❌ Martin D-28 Dreadnought Natural, 1973

❌SOLD❌   Martin D-28 Dreadnought Natural, 1973

The Martin D-28 Dreadnought is one of the classic American guitars, used for countless performances and recordings since its introduction in 1931 as a 12-fret model. In 1934, it gained the 14-fret neck that is almost universally used now. The Dreadnought body design was first used by Martin for the Ditson company in 1916 but due to poor sales was retired until 1931, with the D-18 and D-28.

❌SOLD❌ Larson Bros Prairie State Steel String Brazilian Natural, 1930s

❌SOLD❌  Larson Bros Prairie State Steel String Brazilian Natural, 1930s

Here’s a real beauty! This is a Larson Bros Prairie State steel string guitar, likely a Model 425 with a OOO sized body, Adirondack Spruce top paired with Brazilian Rosewood for the sides and back. It is likely that the bridge is a replacement – the original would have had engraved, inlaid stars on each of the bridge ‘wings’. The Larson Brothers, Carl and August, began working for the Robert Maurer guitar company in 1893. In 1900, Maurer decided to retire, and the Larsons and investors purchased the company. Over the years, Carl bought out the investors giving the brothers full control.
