Used Gibson Guitars
1949 ES-175
First year of manufacture, and one of only 129 made that year! We bought this guitar from the original owner. It's all original, except for the tailpiece he replaced in the late 1950s. It's in amazingly clean condition, with the original strap still attached. There are some small dings here and there, but overall it's beautiful. Price includes a period-correct, non-original Epiphone hardshell case. (more pictures - 2 - 3 - 4)
$6000
1976 Les Paul Deluxe
Cherry sunburst finish--this guitar is beautiful. It's all original except the tuning gears, which have been changed to Schallers. It's in very good+ condition overall. The front looks excellent. The back has some belt buckle, a worn spot on the back of the neck, and some edge wear. There's also what appears to be a strap imprint on the back. Not too heavy, plays great! Price includes the original hard case. (more pictures - 2 - 3)

Used Fender Guitars
1960 Jazzmaster
This is an excellent example of an unmolested 1960 slab board Jazzmaster in see-thru blonde finish. It has never been tampered with in any way. It was lovingly played by its original owner, from whom we bought it. It has normal wear, some small dings and scratches, and some wear on the hardware. It comes with the equally clean original hard brown case, the bridge cover, original strap, and some paper. (more pictures ~ 2 ~ 3 ~ 4 ~ 5 ~ 6)

Natural finish with maple neck and black pickguard. It's all original (even the bridge cover!) and is in excellent condition overall, with very little fretwear. There's some corrosion on the neck plate, some light pick scratches, and a few small dings--nothing through the finish. Price includes the original hard case and lots of case candy. (more pictures ~ 2 ~ 3 ~ 4)
