This mid 60’s Gibson 12 string is a comfortable 14 /14″ wide body with a spruce top and mahogany sides and back. The mahogany neck has a rosewood fretboard and is 14 frets clear of the body with a 24 3/4″ scale length. These guitars were made between 1962-1977 and this example also features an adjustable saddle and beautiful sunburst finish. This guitar has seen a decent amount of wear and tear and there is a fair bit of lacquer checking but it is decent overall condition and comes with a newer hardshell case.

R. Taylor Style 1: Flame Maple SOLD

On April 20, 2011 / SOLD

Tags: acoustic, guitar, made in USA, R. Taylor, steel string, The Twelfth Fret, Vintage

Is there anything better looking than a highly figured Flame maple? The maple neck and body binding along with the flamed center strip augment the beauty of this guitar without drawing your eyes away from the wood grain. Ok it looks great, but how does it sound? I am a self admitted rosewood fan but R. Taylor has once again proved to me that a maple guitar can be bright and sparkle without lacking a solid bass response and strong note fundamental. Great looks and a very appealing tone, this guitar has it all!

Harrison GB Custom 2002 (Consignment) SOLD

Here is a beautiful GB Custom from luthier Doug Harrison. This luxurious and
comfortable single cutaway thinline guitar is sporting a bit of a Gretsch vibe with its Filtertron neck humbucker, custom carved pickguard and thumbnail fretboard markers. The honey tint burst on the top is so smooth you can almost taste the sweetness and the low profile neck shape is oh so comfortable. As always with Harrison guitars this example is a well thought out design with premium woods and components and a masterful build construction!
