'48 L-5s with rosewood fingerboards are almost always considered less desirable than all the others with ebony. This could have been a special order but more likely what you might call a "transition" model, although...

Excellent condition for it’s age other than some binding repair. Plays really well and sounds surprisingly good. Newer case.

Another spectacularly clean ES 125, this one from '66 with 2 pickups. Stupid clean.

Fully original and intensely clean other than a couple of chips on front of the headstock. 'Nuf said.

Custom hand built full acoustic arch top by the late Michael Hemken, this is a beautifully designed & impeccably built guitar, using some of the most striking big leaf quilted maple ever seen, and what looks to be a...

This one looks like it just left the factory AND has some very highly figured maple to boot.

1946 ES-125. First year / first variant with non-adjustable P-90, all mahogany body and trapezoid inlays. Amazing condition - how about, "near mint for it's age"? Just a few very small marks here and there. Original...

Good playing and sounding '57 ES-225 with case. *Typical minor, pro headstock repair behind the nut - had the usual crack / not broken, also pickguard missing.

1957 Blonde ES-175, 1st year for PAFs,100% original and very close to new looking - the pics don't do it justice. Beautiful original correct case in exceptional condition too. Other than a couple small marks on the top...

Pristine condition, all original 1975 Gibson ES-175N with original Gibson hard shell case in similar condition. No issues, no work done and none needed.

Top of the line Kay archtop circa 1940. Excellent condition and original other than Grovers. More pics and info coming.

Very nice '68 Byrdland, plays and sounds great of course. Original case too. More pics and info coming -

Unusually beautiful and superb sounding orange label L-5 CES. Neck pickup is later '70's, great pro refret. This is the closest you can get to a pre '61 L-5 CES and for lots less $, point being we're talking here about...

Beautiful early Johnny Smith in excellent condition, all original, plays and sounds wonderful.

Blonde and beautiful and rare, top of the line Gibson Super 400 CESN in great condition. No issues, no changes, plays great and sounds better.

Ultra clean Guild X-500 circa 2005 with original case.

Insanely clean 1st year L-30 with Kauffman Vib-rola added, first year for these too. Grovers soon to be replaced with original strip tuners. Two things to note here. First, the original neck set is perfect. The guitar...

1959 Super 400 CESN. With fewer than 30 of these ever made with Venetian cut-away, blonde finish and PAFs, this is quite possibly the nicest one extant, having some of the best looking maple you'll ever see, in addition...

1994 / Pre Fender Gretsch 6120 made in Japan, very close to new condition with original case in similar condition. Sets up well and plays great and it has that "Distinctive Gretsch Sound"

King of the Archtops, D'angelico New Yorker cutaway in blonde. Outstanding woods and color, a great player and rather great sounding. Matt D'ambrosio expertly repaired the head stock a few years ago and it's barely...

One owner 1957 Gretsch Corvette in 2 tone Lotus Ivory / Grey Metallic, fully original and complete other than 2 small holes in headstock face where the owner had placed an engraved plaque with his name. Healthy neck,...

They don't come much nicer than this; extremely clean condition, perfect neck set, frets with almost no wear and untouched PAF's that measure 8.2 neck and 8.3 bridge. Classic '61 wide - flat neck profile. Currently set...

Wonderful hand crafted guitar by Baltimore luthier Gary Flowers,; warm, open, balanced and responsive with select European spruce top and choice figured maple back and sides, hand carved ebony bridge, tailpiece and...

Did someone say rare? Only a small handful of these were ever made, but you already know that. Extensively and masterfully repaired / restored / refinished many years ago, an amazing sounding and playing instrument for...

Picture, if you will, some of the most diseased maple to ever grace the loading docks of Kalamazoo's finest. Or, just check out the pics - but here's the point; the beauty of the back of this instrument is indicative of...

Nicest one I've ever seen, circa late '30's Vega C-66, all original in collector condition. These have carved solid spruce tops ( usually 4 piece, this one appears to be 3 ) and this one plays perfectly. Beautiful flame...

One off, custom ordered '61 L-5CES, cherry red with black top. Has to be the only one on earth. Wonderful sounding and playing, completely original, PAF's of course. Fair amount of wear to the gold plating, otherwise...

I miss this one already. Medium depth body ( actually it's 2 5/8" ) from early 1960 with one of the best flame tops extant. Never broken or repaired, overall in extremely fine condition. Set up with Melita bridge...
