Early 60's Univox UC-3 - $395.00

The Univox version of the Jaguar, this guitar sounds nothing like a Jag. It does,however, have a nice sound that's all it's own. It is in excellent condition except for the middle position on the 3 way selector, which tends to cut out when you first select that position. It sounds great once you give the selector a little nudge to the right It's a fairly common wiring issue with these guitars, I also own one that had the exact same problem and it was an easy and cheap fix. Pictures to follow shortly.

Late 50's Gibson Skylark - $499.00

Wow! This little bugger sings! I really can't praise this one enough. Very basic, the way amplifiers were meant to made. 3 tubes, nothing crazy. But heres the rub: this thing produces Led Zeppelin like tones at about volume level 3! A perfect recording amp, as the speaker isn't big enough to produce the low-lows so there's really no need to EQ later in the recording path. If this amp said Vox on the front it would already be sold (and at about twice the current price.) This little party-in-a-box won't last long.

$499.00

1951 National Aztec Amp - $1295.00

Looks as good as she sounds! The '51 National Aztec amp is a real beauty. National made some curious amps throughout their run in the 50's and 60's. The general consensus? The good ones are great and the bad ones are bad. Luckily for us this is certainly one of the good ones. Has a very rich clean tone, very full sounding. Breaks up just enough at the top end of the volume scale, giving that ever-so-sweet vintage sheen to your sound. Truly an Aztec treasure. $1295.00. pics to come!

60's Mosrite Celebrity

This is a mid 60's Mosrite Celebrity in sunburst finish. The real deal is all I can say. For anyone who has ever played a Mosrite they know that the neck is by far the most unique feature of these world class guitars, and this one is no different. Thin and lean neck profile along with ultra-low action equals one of the fastest necks you'll ever play. This one has a crack forming above the bigsby, but it's not affecting the sound or playability of the instrument. A nice hollowbody to add to any collection for sure. $1299.00. Pics coming soon

60s Baldwin GB 66 Semi Hollow

1960s GB 66 Balwdin semi-hollowbody electric guitar. A very pretty red/orange burst finish. Priced at an astonishing $795.00 this is one the best bang for your bucks that we have. Has that unmistakable Baldwin neck, very comfortable player. This one won't last long, so jump in while the jumpin's good. Pictures to come!

60's Baldwin Baby Bison Red

here we have a Baby Bison in red, in what looks like a nice flamed maple body. Exceptionally pretty to look at, exceptionally fun to play. Also has the rezo-tube trem system on it, although it is not as readily apparent as on our black baby. All in all it's in great condition though. Great feeling neck on both Baby Bisons. This one's marked at $1295.00. Pictures are on the way!

1965 Baldwin Baby Bison

Black 65 Baldwin Baby Bison. Excellent condition, plays and sounds like a dream. This is easily one of our coolest guitars. Has the Rezo-tube trem system on it, which is pretty neat. Sounds like a spring reverb on your guitar, even when unplugged! It's in immaculate condition, I'd be all over this one if I had the coin. $995.00. Pics to come soon!
