What first attracted us to John How’s guitars were his small body designs reminiscent of the beautiful parlor guitars of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This Concert model is actually a Parlor sized guitar dressed beautifully in a dark wine sunburst with a vintage style mustache bridge, full bindings on the body, neck and slotted headstock. But it’s character is more than skin deep, this ladder braced beauty has a wonderfully balanced voice with just a hint of that throaty growl that Mahogany is famous for. This How guitar would be perfect for Blues, Rags, Old Time or that best friend guitar you keep close at hand all day long. As a bonus it’s also small enough to travel with and you’ll want to take it a long with you…

Brazilian, Adirondack, Sunburst and Varnish Finish all in the level 3 trim package, this is one special Collings. Special first and foremost because Collings may no longer offer Brazilian Rosewood guitars. That fact alone makes this highly collectible as well as luscious sounding. This set of Brazilian is spectacular, it is very straight grained, very old and has desirable brick red hues. The Varnish finish lets all the tone come through and gives this sunburst OM a beautiful vintage patina that is readily apparent on the bindings which frame the body, neck and headstock. The sound is absolutely marvelous, strong and focused with wonderful OM balance and projection and a very prewar voice. We are delighted to offer one more chance for a Brazilian Collings…

From the Santa Cruz Website: “With its player-driven design that has 13 frets clear of the body, plus special soundhole and bridge locations, Santa Cruz Guitar Company’s H 13 Fret joins the SCGC H lineup with a sweet tone that capitalizes upon the best attributes of a 12-fret’s resonance and a 14-fret’s access. As a result, it’s ideally suited to fingerpicking, coaxing the sonic character of each note while projecting an overall tonal depth. Despite its small appearance, the H 13 Fret employs a body depth approaching that of a much larger dreadnought-sized guitar, producing extra volume and bass support to bolster its rich tone. Its comfortable size and complex tonal characteristics make it especially appealing to traditional players, soloists, and recording artists who demand maximum warmth and tonal versatility.” We agree, this guitar is strong and has great character. It’s great fun to play as well and the Koa is stunning.

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.
