1960 Fender Jazzmaster
$14,995
No sales tax for customers outside California.
I've had some killer Jazzmasters through the shop. I generally prefer those from '62 or '63 for their neck shape and feel, and I am weak for gold pickguard models from '58 and '59, but this one is probably the best playing and sounding Jazzmaster that has come through. I never describe guitars this way because I see it all the time in other...

2003 Suhr Carve Top Standard Brazilian Fretboard
$5,395
No sales tax for customers outside California.
Suhr guitars never came my way over the nearly 30 years I've been in this business. Recently, however, several mint ones have passed through. This example is from a collection buy. The collection includes many guitars like this that were purchased new, played once or twice, then stashed. The collector had a great eye. Most of the pieces are...

$3,899.99
No sales tax for customers outside California.
Here's a great find for the Suhr lover, a Carve Top Standard that was purchased in 2001 and stashed.
The guitar looks new. It has been played only a handful of times as it was part of a huge guitar and amp collection.
What a beauty! These guitars also play like a dream with their slim, perfect necks and fret work.
This example is all...

1996 Larrivee LS-10 OM 10 Deluxe
$5,999.99
No sales tax for customers outside California.
I've felt for years that these earlier Larrivee guitars were greatly underappreciated. I was a dealer of the guitars back when I had my old music store here in Chico, CA. We sold so many, and all my staff owned one at one point. We were always blown away by the quality at the prices they were selling for. These days, Larrivee guitars are...

1996 Fender Stratocaster 1960 Relic Cunetto Era
$7,000
No sales tax for customers outside California.
I can't get enough of these older Cunetto Relic guitars! I kept a Cunetto blackguard Tele for my personal stash and this Strat would be right next to it if not for some significant home repairs that loom.
The neck date on this guitar is from August of 1995. This falls within the first few months of Cunetto relic production - this is one of...

~1948 Sears & Roebuck Tube Amplifier
$375
No Sales Tax For Customers Outside Of California.
This Sears & Roebuck amplifier came to us in an inoperable state. We had the power cable and filter caps changed out and now it works!
It isn't a powerhouse, as I'm sure you understand, but it is a really cool little relic that would go great with an early lap steel.
For the vintage, the amp is in pretty remarkable shape!
Case/Cover?:...

1984 Gibson Flying V Designer Series
$2,500
No sales tax for customers outside California.
Flying Vs are on fire these days, and these unique Designer Series models follow suit. This particular V has a couple changes that make it more affordable than a fully stock, original example while remaining a really playable guitar.

1997 Gibson Les Paul Studio
$1,095
No sales tax for customers outside California.
One of the best deals out there in a quality, utility guitar - the Les Paul Studio.
This is a nicely kept, clean example with a great neck and frets with light wear.
It is clear that the guitar wasn't played a ton, though there are a couple small changes. There are a set of Dunlop straplock buttons in place of the originals and the other...

Unbranded Tremolo Unit
$750
No Sales Tax For Customers Outside Of California.
I traded this unit in at a recent guitar show. I was told it was a Fender prototype, but I have my doubts about that.
What I don't doubt is that this thing is really cool! There are so many useful to out of this world sounds available.
Being that it is a custom piece, it is a little hard to know exactly what the modes or settings are,...

This LG-2 is a 3/4 size version that makes for one of the greatest couch guitars ever built.

1976 Fender Princeton Reverb
$1
No Sales Tax For Customers Outside Of California.
This is an amp I stashed for myself. When I do get a chance to play I still lean on the amp my long time repair guy built for me. So, this one is on the block.
I grabbed this Princeton because it was super clean and original. It has all the original tubes, though one of the preamp tubes is microphonic. I'll include a new tube with the...

1980 Ibanez ST105 Studio
$750
No sales tax for customers outside California.
It is widely known that the Ibanez guitars from this period are well made pieces that play really well, as is the case for this guitar. The model was made for just two years, making it somewhat difficult to find examples for sale.

2005 Fender 1965 Relic Custom Shop

No sales tax for customers outside California.
This Strat has just about the perfect relic treatment. The lightly aged Olympic white finish and the green pickguard are just, well, perfect.
The guitar has seen a switch and potentiometer upgrade but appears to be in nearly the same condition it likely was when it was released from the custom shop in 2005. Original parts are in the case....
