Built from 1902 to 1934, the Gibson F-4 Oval Hole F-Style mandolin was the top of the line until 1922 when Lloyd Loar introduced the F-hole F-5 model. Both models were then built until 1943, when WW2 interrupted production. The Gibson F-4 and F-5 paired an Adirondack Spruce top with a carved figured Maple back.

❌SOLD❌  BC Rich Bich Supreme Maple Natural, 1995

Designed by Neal Moser while Bernardo Rico was out of the country, the BC Rich Bich first appeared in the 1976 catalog as a 10-string model. Like most other BC Rich models of the time, the Bich used a neck-through design with ‘wings’ added to provide the body shape for the center neck-body section. The BC Rich Bich Supreme seen here is in great condition with very little wear.

Sometimes a guitar can surprise you. I picked up this Martin J-40 having handled a number of 000 guitars recently, and was taken aback by its depth and power. It sounds fantastic! The Martin J-40 appeared in 1990 as a reworking of the J-40 M introduced in 1985.
