Vintage Guitar - October 2017 - open - 87
1) 1990s Hofner Cavern Bass Reissue Factory left-handed. Vintage logo, one-piece flat back, vintage pickups. One pickup installed, one in the case (easy to put in), 1960 "rugby ball" tuners (real, not reissue) and 1960 control plate and pots. Get $100 off if you can hit the hard notes in Paul's classic "Oh! Darling". Phone auditions accepted. Case included, $1,995 2) 1962 Gibson ES-330TDC Cherry, rare variant with block inlays and black dog ear P-90's, fresh refret by our shop, nice big neck, just in from the original owner who played "variety music" for forty plus years. Comes with the original hard case. $4500 3) 1967 Epiphone Riviera Beautiful Tea Burst, nicely aged, Gibson Kalamazoo era Epiphone, optional gold hardware, great sounding mini humbucking pickups, no breaks, a tough find these days, comes with the original hard case. $3995 4)1960 Fender Tele Slab board, all stock, but pro refin and feather-lite at 6 pounds. In 1960 rock slowed down, Elvis was in the army, and Buddy Holly was gone. Ricky Nelson and Bobby Darin were the pop kings of the day. We see 20 early '60s Strats for every Tele from that period. How are you gonna be James Burton 1 2 3 4 5 6 without a Telecaster? Relive 1960 for only $17,500 5) 1989 Fender '57 Reissue Strat "Mary Kaye" Ex++. See-thru blonde, gold hardware, cool case and strap. Let's see, if you bought a real '57 Strat in 1989 then that guitar would have been 32 years old then and worth a fortune now. But this guitar today is only 28 years old so fortunes have yet to be made...right? Send 25 big ones. 6) 1972 Gibson Les Paul Custom Black Beauty, and beautiful it is. Made only four years after its reintroduction this guitar is strikingly clean with original case and booklet. Near mint, so stunning, it glows even! Or in British Fan-tastic Smashing. Parlez-vous Francais? Incroyable! A prodigiously breathtaking thing with yellowed binding that looks gold. $6500
