Triggs Acoustic 2009 (Consignment) SOLD

Jim Triggs worked for the Gibson Custom Shop for six years, and now works with his son Ryan in Kansas City. Here is a handmade flat top tribute guitar from the Kansas Walnut Valley festival 38th year. This large body guitar has tons of crisp note fundamental, bright shimmering trebles and lots of volume. The abalone and pearl appointments add to the visual impact of this lovely set of curly maple on the sides and back. It plays really well, is in great overall shape with little wear and tear and comes with a TKL hardshell case.

Gibson RB-250 Mastertone 5-String Banjo 1962 SOLD

Gibson RB-250 Mastertone 5-String Banjo 1962   SOLD

There has been some discussion on the hardware used on this banjo. The RB-250 did not come factory in gold but that said, in 1962 Gibson would fill virtually any custom request. The hardware shows none of the pitting typical of re-plated hardware. Also the cost to upgrade after the banjo was built would have been huge so we are going on the theory that this was a custom order. Tailpiece: I found several of these gold-plated tailpieces in the boxes of 1960s Gibson hardware I acquired when Gibson Canada shut down in 1979. So I am assuming they were stock Gibson issue for at least a few of their gold plated banjos, though I’ve never seen any. I gather they were made by Elton but am happy for input from anybody out there who knows more.

Fender Jazzmaster 1961 (Consignment) SOLD

Fender Jazzmaster 1961 (Consignment) SOLD

With a tone designed to be more mellow and jazzier than the Strat the Jazzmaster wasn’t really embraced by jazz players. It is more commonly associated with surf rock bands like The Ventures and The Fireballs and later experimental rock bands such as Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine. This particular example has been stripped of its finish and has newer tuners but is in great overall shape and has a really cool vibe. Comes with original brown hardshell case.
