Weber Gallatin F14-F Mandolin Dark Burst, 2003

Weber Gallatin F14-F Mandolin Dark Burst, 2003

Introduced in 1999, the Weber Gallatin F14-F F-Style mandolin delivers punch, clarity and playability in a visually stripped down package. The core materials and build quality are all there, but it’s just not highly decorated and you’ll never be able to tell from the recordings! Built during June of 2003 in Belgrade, Montana this Weber Gallatin F14-F mandolin features a Sitka spruce top with Mahogany for the back, sides and neck, and ebony for the fingerboard and bridge.

Gibson L-4C Archtop with DeArmond Rhythm Chief Pickup, 1959

Gibson L-4C Archtop with DeArmond Rhythm Chief Pickup, 1959

Seen here is a Gibson L-4C cutaway archtop acoustic guitar with an original DeArmond Rhythm Chief 1100 pickup with its ‘Monkey on a Stick’ mount. This fine vintage guitar very much looks the part, and it plays well. The 16-inch wide Gibson L-4C was introduced in 1949 and came to replace the non-cutaway L-4. That model first appeared in 1912 as an oval-hole archtop, with F-holes becoming available in 1935 and finally discontinued in 1956.

Dating to October 2005 and built in Lewiston, Maine, this Bourgeois Slope D Custom dreadnought is in very good condition with negligible wear. It features an Adirondack Spruce top, Mahogany for the sides, back, body blocks and neck, Ebony for the bridge, bound head plate and bound fingerboard, and Indian Rosewood for the heel cap.

Martin 000-42 Steel String Guitar Natural, 2020

Martin 000-42 Steel String Guitar Natural, 2020

Seen here is a Martin 000-42 built during 2020 in Nazareth PA, in very good, clean and original condition with minimal wear. It plays well, and is a beautiful instrument – nicely decorated but not overly so. It has been played, but apparently not extensively, and its already good sound will improve with use.
