1968 Gibson Super 400CES Curly Maple/Spruce
Here’s a vintage Gibson Super 400CES from 1968, the last year of the split block Fret Markers. This one is completely original but for the pickguard and updated bridge and the original parts are in the case. The big 18″ body of the Super 400 is the secret to it’s bold and powerful sound. This one has been lovingly cared for and has a great setup for easy playability. This is a classic in every way.
1956 Gibson Les Paul Jr. Mahogany/P-90 Pickups
This is the real deal vintage Les Paul Jr. The Les Paul Junior is the little brother to the Les Paul, having a flat, uncarved mahogany body, a single P90 pickup, plus the old wraparound combined bridge/tailpiece that would continue to be used on the Junior even after it had been dropped from the Gold Top. Many players covet the Junior for it’s great feel and serious tone. This one is very rare and collectible and appears to be completely original right down to the chipboard case.

1952 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop Mahogany/Maple
This is some guitar, the first year of the Les Paul! Designed by Ted McCarty and Les Paul, this guitar was the very first of the Les Paul line. Many consider these guitars prototypes since they were never assigned serial numbers. This one has the Gold Top, P-90 pickups and appears to be all original but for the nut. The playability is great and the tone is killer. This is a very rare, vintage Gibson Les Paul offered as part of a collection or individually.
1960-1961 Gibson Byrdland Maple/Spruce
This rare Byrdland comes from 1960, the first year they introduced the pointed Florentine cutaway. This blonde beauty is in great condition, the setup on this guitar is perfect and it plays like a dream. The Byrdland designs features a short 23.5″ scale which makes for easy reach and joyful bending. This one has that distinctive Byrdland sound and Al and I both love it.
1967 Guild Bluesbird M-75 Mahogany/Spruce
The Guild Bluesbird is a great design that employs a hollow body design for light weight and tone. The big single coil pickups offer a screamin’ tone for blues or a clean punch for Jazz and other styles. This vintage Guild is in great shape, with restoration work performed by Gilbert Diaz one of Guild’s three amigos.
1979 Martin EM-18 Maple/Walnut/
Martin made just 1375 EM-18 guitars from 1979-1982. While they did not make a big stir at the time, we find them to be a very cool guitar with great tone and a variety of settings (series & parallel) that give you the ability to get a funky single coil sort of tone as well as full-out screaming humbucker voicings. The body is laminated Maple & Walnut body have a race car sensibility and the Stauffer style headstock nods to the company’s history. This would be a fun addition to any collection and this one is in excellent condition.
