Gibson L-00 late 30’s (used) SOLD

Gibson L-00 late 30's (used)  SOLD

This Gibson L-00 from the late 30’s is waiting to be some finger picking/blues stylist’s best friend. Your dog will have to take a back seat to this little beauty. Summer is coming and it’s near time to grab this guitar and go hoboin’! This guitar features a 14 3/4 wide body with a spruce top and mahogany sides and back. The mahogany neck has fairly thick V neck and the original bridge has been replaced. The sunburst finish has seen lots of wear and tear but the guitar is in great overall condition for its age.

Gibson B-25-12 1964 (used) SOLD

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

R. Taylor Style 1: Flame Maple SOLD

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!
