❌SOLD❌ Fender Telecaster Rosewood Fingerboard Sunburst, 1978

On July 15, 2019 /

Here’s a very nice, clean Fender Telecaster with Rosewood fingerboard and Sunburst finish coming to us from the year 1978! Leo Fender introduced the Telecaster as the Broadcaster in 1950, but rapidly had to drop the name as Gretsch was using it for a line of drums. ‘NoCasters’ were shipped for a short while during 1951 until new non-infringing ‘Telecaster’ decals and other materials were prepared. Since then, many changes have been made to the instrument without significant alteration to the core design.

❌SOLD❌ National El Trovador Resophonic Guitar with Hot Plate, Mahogany, 2015

On July 11, 2019 /

The National El Trovador goes back to the 1930’s wood bodied, single cone resophonic guitars by National, and this one comes with a HotPlate installed! The El Trovador uses a Mahogany laminate for the body and solid Mahogany for the neck, with a bound Ebony fingerboard. The peg head is slotted, which increases the pressure of the strings on the nut while reducing the required tip-back angle of the head.

❌ SOLD❌ Fender 50th Anniversary Stratocaster Sunburst, 2004

On July 3, 2019 /

Here we have a very well preserved Fender 50th Anniversary Stratocaster, built during 2004 at the Fender plant in Corona, California. This example features an Ash body and Maple neck, with a single-layer white pickguard. The finish is the early style two-tone sunburst. For this, Fender sprayed a yellow center coat and then a dark ring around the body edges.
This is not a slavish re-creation of the 1954 model. It also sports a modern two-point trem bridge with steel block saddles – this is one of our favourite bridges for the improved brightness, clarity and separation offered by the heavier bridge components.

❌SOLD❌ Santa Cruz OM-PW Pre War Style Guitar, 2004

On July 2, 2019 /

Following in the traditions of American guitar building, the Santa Cruz OM-PW – the PW stands for ‘Pre War’ – delivers vintage style tone and playability. The OM-PW design dates back to the end of the 1920’s when the Martin Guitar Company introduced the Orchestra Model or OM. Very similar to the ‘OOO’ model, the key difference is in the scale length. The OM scale is over 25 inches, usually the same as the Dreadnought models, while the ‘OOO’ scale length is typically around 24.9 inches. Otherwise the bodies are the same.

❌SOLD❌ Fender Stratocaster Left Handed Made In Japan Blonde, 1987

On June 18, 2019 /

It’s unusual to see a Fender Stratocaster in Left Handed form, from the start of the ‘New’ Fender era when much of Fender’s production was Made in Japan. Here, we have a Fender Stratocaster Left Handed built during 1987 at the FujiGen Gakki plant in Nagano, in Blonde finish with Rosewood fingerboard. The original pickups have been replaced with Seymour Duncan models, and the original pick guard with a faux-tortoise unit. This really works well with the Rosewood fingerboard.
