❌SOLD❌ Ernie Ball Music Man Bongo 5 HH Bass Burgundy, 2011

On January 28, 2020 /

Introduced in 2003 and still in production, the Ernie Ball Music Man Bongo 5 HH Bass features active electronics for its pair of humbucking pickups. At its core, the Bongo bass draws from the classic, proven bolt-on designs developed during the early 1950s. However, it is considerably more advanced and available in 4, 5 and 6 string versions, all with 24 frets. These are very versatile, reliable basses with a huge range.

❌SOLD❌ Fender Champ Lap Steel, Desert Sand 1959

On January 24, 2020 /

This Fender Champ Lap Steel, built during 1959 at the Fender plant in Fullerton, California is in very nice, mostly original condition. The Fender Champ Lap Steel was often sold as part of a starter set, with Fender’s smallest amplifier – the 5 watt Champ. That amp itself went on to become very popular in some recording studios. For example, it’s the amp Eric Clapton used for much of the Derek and the Dominos – Layla album.

❌SOLD❌ Larrivee C09M Cutaway Maple Natural, 1991

This Larrivee C09M was built during May of 1991 in Victoria, BC and features a Sitka Spruce top, Florentine cutaway and spectacular set of Flamed Maple for the sides and back! Based on the classic Larrivee L-body, which itself draws from Larrivee’s experience building classical guitars, the Larrivee C09M pairs Sitka Spruce and Maple for the sharp Florentine-cutaway body, Mahogany for the body blocks and neck, and Ebony for the bridge, head plate, and bound fingerboard.

❌SOLD❌ Fender 57 Hot Rod Stratocaster Sunburst, 2011

On January 17, 2020 /

Here’s a great playing Fender 57 Hot Rod Stratocaster in a 3-tone sunburst, and original parts except for a replacement Fender body. The original body was flawed, and replaced under warranty by Fender. Introduced around 2007, the Fender 57 Hot Rod Stratocaster hews closely to the original design with one piece Maple neck and Alder body, but the hardware has a number of factory upgrades, some not immediately apparent.

❌SOLD❌ Fender SRV Signature Stratocaster Sunburst, 1993

On January 15, 2020 /

Here we’re looking at a Fender SRV Signature Series Stratocaster, built during 1993 at the Fender plant in Corona, California. Like Number One, it uses an Alder body paired with a Maple neck and a “slab” board fingerboard – however, the fingerboard is apparently Pau Ferro, not Rosewood. In 1963, Fender had not quite worked out how to wrap a thin layer of Rosewood over a curved neck on a production line basis, so a flat board was installed and the top received the crown. And, in 1963, the fingerboard would have been Brazilian Rosewood.

❌SOLD❌ Taylor 712 with Fishman Pickup, 1997

On January 11, 2020 /

Here’s a lovely Taylor 712 from 1997, before pickups were stock, and it’s a very nice guitar for fingerstyle playing – well rounded with full, evenly balanced tone. The Taylor 712 in this form is no longer available. The 712 is now mostly presented as the Taylor 712 ce, for Cutaway Electric, and most often in 12-fret neck format, with slotted peghead. However, the construction has the same basis in the Grand Concert body, roughly equivalent to a Martin OOO body size. It features a Sitka Spruce top paired with Indian Rosewood for the back and sides, Mahogany for the body blocks, linings and neck, and Ebony for the bridge and bound fingerboard.
