❌SOLD❌ Gibson Herb Ellis Plus ES-165 Sunburst, 2004

On August 31, 2019 /

Signature models are sometimes unusual, as is the case with the Gibson Herb Ellis Plus – the two pickup version of the Herb Ellis ES-165, built from 1991 to 2013. The late Herb Ellis was one of the more prominent American Jazz guitarists, and his 1943 spot in Glen Gray’s Casa Loma Orchestra (that name is meaningful to those in Toronto, but it seems the band is not related to the Gothic Casa Loma mansion) brought him to the attention of the jazz world.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Les Paul Deluxe Goldtop, 1969

On August 15, 2019 /

The Gibson Les Paul Deluxe was built from late 1968 to 1985, and used an original style body layout and finish. The pickup cavities reflect the use of P90 pickups, though what was installed was a ‘New York’ mini humbucker mounted in a modified P90 cover, all in a gold top finish. Gibson launched the Les Paul in 1952, using a now-classic pairing of a Maple top on a Mahogany body, with a Mahogany neck and bound Rosewood fingerboard. By late 1952, the design was modified to increase the neck angle allowing better action and breakover at the bridge saddles and in 1954, the new Tune-O-Matic and Stop Tailpiece were added.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Les Paul 59 Reissue Custom Shop Sunburst, 2001

On August 13, 2019 /

This Gibson Les Paul 59 Reissue is in all original, overall good condition. Finish and fret wear are light, and a headstock crack has been nicely repaired – only regluing was necessary, and it is quite stable. The Maple top has an interesting figure, combining Flame and Quilt effects. This kind of figuring is really set off by a sunburst finish, and the washed-out cherry sunburst here complements it very well.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson L00 1930s Classic Steel String Guitar Black, 2015

On August 8, 2019 /

Built as a limited edition during 2015, the Gibson L00 1930s Classic heads back to the early days of the American steel string guitar’s meteoric rise in popularity, as it displaced the banjo. The Gibson L-00 was introduced in 1929 and built until 1946, though it made its first catalog appearance in 1932, and at the time sold for $25 new! It featured a Spruce top with Mahogany for the sides, back, body blocks and neck. Originally, the fingerboard was unbound and ‘ebonized’ – dyed black – and could have been any number of woods other than Rosewood, depending on availability and price.
