I've been a player for 60 years, a collector for more than 25. I specialize in Gibson ES-335s, 345s, 355s from the 50's and early to mid 60's. Nobody in the world buys more 1958-1964 ES-335's, 345's and 355's and nobody sells more of them. I occasionally come across other cool gear that I just can't pass up like Fender tweed amps and the occasional SG, Strat, Tele, Firebird or Jazzmaster. Online sales only for now.

Greetings and welcome from all of us at Empire Guitars! Owner Jeff Keithline has been a professional musician for 40 plus years and an avid participant in all aspects of music making. When he and business partner Michael Goldstein opened a new Empire Loan location in 2006, Jeff saw an opportunity to expand Empire's modest vintage guitar retail business into the store he had always dreamed of. He hired two gentlemen experienced in various aspects of the music world (including current store manager Mike Samos) and together they laid the groundwork for actualizing Jeff's vision. Their goal was to create a space not just about selling instruments, but also about knowledge sharing and community; a place where guitar lovers congregate and musicians come to discuss the tools of their trade. Since its humble beginnings, Empire Guitars has grown into one of the best vintage and used instruments stores on the New England area. We specialize in vintage instruments from the turn of the century to the 1960s and quality used instruments from the '70s to today. We are always buying, selling, and trading quality instruments between the hours of 10am-7pm Monday thru Friday and 9am-6pm Saturday here in Providence, Rhode Island. See you soon!!!

"Nothing but the best and later for the rest" John Lee Hooker
Vintage Gear America is owned by John Nelson a native Californian and professional guitarist known primarily for having played lead guitar for John Lee Hooker and Eddie Money. John’s relentless interest in vintage gear eventually developed into his post-musical career of buying and selling high-end vintage guitars. Having grown up in a musical environment with a guitar maker father, John’s insatiable interest in vintage instruments and related information eventually developed into a high level of expertise. For many years John bought and sold only the finest high end guitars and rarest of vintage gear, eventually he opened several retail musical instrument stores in Hollywood, the most noteworthy and unique being Vintage Gear Hollywood on Sunset Blvd. The first of its kind Vintage Gear Hollywood was the cutting edge of what became the “vintage gear” market, a business model and vernacular that is now in use and considered industry standard. Since closing its brick and mortar doors a few years ago Vintage Gear Hollywood has evolved into Vintage Gear America an online version of this unique store is now open for business, welcome to Vintage Gear America.

If you’re looking for a beginner or student instrument, we will try to make sure your needs are properly met.

We set up every instrument that goes out the door, specifically to the needs of its new owner. Manufacturer of high-end flat-top acoustic steel-string guitars: Schoenberg Guitars are a traditional styled modern instrument, strongly patterned after the best features culled from an intimate knowledge of the American steel-string golden age. Especially Martins post gut string, fingerstyle yet pre big flat-picked guitar, when construction was light and open and necks were wider. Originally a joint effort between Schoenberg and C.F. Martin, today, the Schoenberg Guitars are built one at a time by the capable hands of world-class luthiers Robert Anderson, James Russell, Randall Kramer, Howard Klepper, Bruce Sexauer and John Slobod.
