❌SOLD❌ PRS CE24 Solidbody Tobacco Sunburst, 1991

❌SOLD❌  PRS CE24 Solidbody Tobacco Sunburst, 1991

The PRS CE24 solidbody combines a number of classic themes, and in fact CE24 stands for ‘Classic Electric 24 Frets’. The body is the typical PRS combination of a double cutaway with carved Maple top on a Mahogany slab back, and the bolt-on neck is Maple with an Indian Rosewood fingerboard. This example was built during 1991 at the PRS shop in Stevensville, Maryland, and carries a tobacco sunburst. The hardware includes PRS locking tuners, a PRS vintage style trem bridge, and a pair of uncovered humbuckers.

❌SOLD❌ Taylor T5 C2 Ebony Top Thinline, 2008

❌SOLD❌ Taylor T5 C2 Ebony Top Thinline, 2008

The Taylor T5 C2 is now discontinued in favour of other T5 models, but is an excellent example of form meeting functional needs – its original purpose was to take the place of multiple instruments on a tour stage. Here we’re looking at a Taylor T5 C2 model with a strikingly figured Ebony top, built during 2008 at the Taylor plant in El Cajon, California. The finish itself is very clean and only very lightly marked. The hardware is gold plated, and the inlays are a mix of Abalone, acrylic and Mother of Pearl.

❌SOLD❌  Rob Allen MB2 Fretless Bass Walnut, 2010

Here we have a Rob Allen MB2 Fretless Bass, built with a Walnut topped Mahogany body during 2010 at Allen’s shop in Fillmore, California.  Rob Allen designs and builds to his own preferences combining acoustic and electric tonalities. The Allen MB-2 bodies are semi-hollow, and use acoustic style bridges rather than massive metal units. The bridge itself is Rosewood, with a Bone saddle and a built-in Fishman transducer – there is also a volume control on the bridge itself.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Les Paul Gold Top, 1953

❌SOLD❌  Gibson Les Paul Gold Top, 1953

The Gibson Les Paul Gold Top appeared in 1952 and rapidly began evolving and improving until reaching a fairly stable form in 1954. Initially, the Les Paul was equipped with a Les Paul-designed bridge-trapeze tailpiece combination, but also a very low neck angle. By early 1953, the trapeze was replaced with a stop-bar bridge. Soon after, the new ABR-1 bridge, known as the Tune-O-Matic, was added paired with a stop tailpiece.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson ES Les Paul Pelham Blue, 2016

❌SOLD❌   Gibson ES Les Paul Pelham Blue, 2016

Coming from the now shuttered Memphis plant in 2015, the Gibson ES Les Paul combined classic Les Paul aesthetics with the immensely successful thinline ES concept. Along with the plant, this model has, as such, been discontinued by Gibson’s new management. The new ES-235 is perhaps its replacement in this class.
