❌SOLD❌ Martin 000-42 Standard Series Steel String Guitar Natural

❌SOLD❌  Martin 000-42 Standard Series Steel String Guitar Natural

This is a beautiful Martin 000-42 Standard Series, a spectacular sounding instrument with just the right amount of inlay. The 000 body size was introduced in 1902 with a 12-fret, 24.9 inch scale length neck  and in 1934 gained the ‘new’ 14-fret neck.   The OM or Orchestra Model is based on this guitar, but with a 14-fret, 25.4 inch scale length neck. The ’42’ in the name refers to the Style 42 materials and inlay set, introduced in 1858, and discontinued in 1943.

❌SOLD❌ Fender Stratocaster ‘Partscaster’ Relic Green, 1997

❌SOLD❌   Fender Stratocaster 'Partscaster' Relic Green, 1997

When Leo Fender had the frankly brilliant idea of the bolt-together guitar and used ‘caster’ as part of the name, what’s known as a ‘Partscaster’ also came into existence. Partscasters were and continue to be a big trend. Modifying fenders to customize for each player’s needs, uses and tendencies end up being not only a good learning experience for those into DIY but offer more specific-to-the-player tool rather than the standard off-the-shelf instruments.

❌SOLD❌ Martin D-35 Dreadnought Steel String Guitar Natural, 1973

❌SOLD❌ Martin D-35 Dreadnought Steel String Guitar Natural, 1973

The Martin D-35 Dreadnought first appeared in 1965, partly as a way to use the remaining stock of Brazilian Rosewood sections that were too small for a two-piece back. Drawing from the very successful D bodied Dreadnought, the Martin D-35 was placed between the venerable D-28 and more expensively decorated D-41 and D-45 models.

❌SOLD❌ Gretsch Brian Setzer Signature 6120SSU Nashville, Orange Flame, 1997

The Gretsch Brian Setzer 6120SSU, built from 1993 to 2014, was one of the earlier of the Setzer Signature models based on the 1960 6120s used in the Stray Cats, Brian Setzer Orchestra and various solo projects. Introduced in 1954 as a Chet Atkins model, the Gretsch 6120 featured a fully hollow, 16 inch wide and 2 7/8 inch deep Maple Laminate body with bound F holes, tone bar / sound post bracing and a Maple neck with Rosewood or Ebony fingerboard and bridge base.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Les Paul TV Special, 1958

❌SOLD❌   Gibson Les Paul TV Special, 1958

The Gibson  Les Paul TV Special was introduced in 1955 as a midway point between the also newly introduced Les Paul Junior and the Les Paul itself. Like the Junior, the Special used Honduran Mahogany for the body – no carved Maple cap like the Les Paul – and the neck, and Rosewood for the fingerboard. The Special, however, had two P-90 pickups and a bound fingerboard; at the time, ‘Rosewood’ meant Brazilian Rosewood.

❌SOLD❌ Breedlove Quartz OF A-Style Mandolin Sunburst, 2005

❌SOLD❌  Breedlove Quartz OF A-Style Mandolin Sunburst, 2005

The Breedlove Quartz OF is an A-Style mandolin, the ‘O’ indicating an Oval body and the F, F Holes. Like other Breedlove mandolins, it has been out of production since 2016. ‘Quartz’ is the term Breedlove assigned to their entry-level US built mandolins.   That name is possibly a reference to a mountain not far from the Breedlove shop, then located in Tumalo, Oregon.
