Jan 13, 2013. Last night the guy who runs the place told me they got a Carvin V3 and asked if I'd like to try it out. I was really. The V3 is a great amp, but very hard to dial in if you're used to the setup of Fenders, Mesa, Marshalls, etc. The presence. With my midi rig, the Ibanez amps, and the Fender win. Carvin V3 Midi Setup Mac. Tube pioneered — and leads the way in — guitar amp and effects modeling, and Ampli. Tube 4 takes it to the outer edges of extreme hyper realism with intuitive familiar tools. Fasten your seat belt. The new Cab Room feature is the most advanced cabinet section ever.

I sold this some time back and would like to buy it, or an identical color and model. Please email or call. NOTE: WE’RE CLOSED FRIDAY AND WILL BE BACK UP AND RUNNING MONDAY, 12/18..

Mint condition-never retailed and includes manual and power supply. These are very rare from 2001. Only 150 were distributed in the USA, 500 worldwide. I think at some time in the future these will be one of the ultimate collectables in light of the rarity and the fact that the POS was the most influential guitar effect of this generation. Underneath the chrome case it is your basic original POD, the kidney bean-shaped 'desktop' modeling device for guitarists, offering a set of 16 amplifier models, 16 effects, and a selection of speaker cabs.

It provides outputs for connecting directly to recording equipment, an external amplifier or PA system, or to headphones for late night practicing. Offered in mint condition with manual and power supply for $265., (), (), (), (), (). Lovely CE-22 upgraded with a fine set of Suhr pickups with an SSV neck and SSH+ bridge, complete with 3-way switch and push/pull tone pot for 6 killer tones.

If you prefer the stock Dragon II pickups I might have a set here we can install but trust me, these Suhr's sound great. My favorite PRS of all time happened to be a CE finished in orange that I foolishly sold around 15 years ago. They’re great guitars. Features include carved mahogany body with carved maple top, gloss finish, PRS tremolo, PRS locking tuners, quarter-sawn maple neck with wide-thin carve, moon inlays, and 5-way rotary for a good selection of single coil and humbucker tones. Many players prefer the feel and tone of PRS's bolt-on's and, in fact, the list price on the CE22 Maple was just $50 under the set-neck PRS Standard.

Offered in excellent condition in all regards including a perfect low set up. This model sold at discount for $2139 when last produced a few years ago. It’s an excellent buy today at just $1150. Includes original PRS case (not as clean as the guitar) and trem arm., (), (), (), (), (), (). Immediately after his contract with Peavey ended Ed went to Fender/Charvel and these were the first production models, designed by the man himself. These came in this model, a black/yellow stripe, and a black/white/red stripe. After an initial small run of hand-signed guitars which were sold exclusively at auction, the model went into regular limited production, with a run of 5 years (’04-’08).

For those who recall, this is a replica of the B&W guitar Ed played during the first Van Halen album, thus it’s referred to as the VH1. It features a custom-striped basswood body outfitted with a special-wound EVH humbucker, Floyd Rose Original locking vibrato with D-Tuna, and Schaller M6 tuners. True to the original, beautiful in its simplicity with but a single volume knob for controls (the knob is marked “tone” to replicate Ed’s original VH1). Also features his favored compound-radius bolt-on maple neck with oil finish. This is the perfect neck for tapping, double stops, bends, and all the other pyrotechnics. Figuring some of these might be knocked off, there are various was to authenticate them including a holograph sticker in the cavity (raw wood area is correct).

The Art Series had a retail price of $3299, selling in stores at discount for around $2600. I haven’t had one of these in 7 years but was happy to find one I could sell at a nice price. $1750 includes original case, tag, warranty, extra knob, etc., (), (), (). Killer multi-effect for singer/songwriter types or anyone who wants a single device to amplify their acoustic guitar, add vocal harmonies, and sweeten the mix in numerous ways. Like the TC Helicon units I’ve had, this is a very intuitive device and in its most basic form you can just punch-in harmonies on the fly, which automatically match the guitar chord you’re playing. Singing along with the harmonizer for 3-part harmony you can hit, for instance, an A chord and the harmonies for an A; switch to an Am and the middle harmony automatically goes down a ½ step for a perfect minor harmony. Unlike the Helicon units the VE-8 also has a built in 80-second looper which you can easily punch in/out, layer, recall, etc.

And have the ability to loop guitar and vocal parts independently. You can also save 50 of your patches for instant recall. Rather than go through a full page of description, for a nice YouTube demo from Boss. Sells new for $299; get this one in perfect condition in the box with power supply and manual for $209.. Earlier non-Mosfet FD2 (from 2001) prized for its warmth and compression. Nice shape for its age in original box with manual. If you’re into Lo-Fi delay, this is probably the best one out there ( for a lo-fi demo).

This latest model eclipses the tone of features of the original Echo Dream. With its “Advanced Echo Modulation” via a built-in LFO and a preamp fuzz circuit, it now includes control knobs for Fuzz and Master Volume and is less expensive than the original. Control knobs include Echo Delay Time, Echo Feedback, Master Volume, Fuzz Level, Delay Volume, Modulator Speed, and Modulator Depth. It also has a switch for 50/50 Wet/Dry blend and Dry Signal Off as well as one for Sine/Square Mod Shape. Delay time is an impressive 20ms to 1.2 seconds while the Feedback control allows self-oscillating modulation.

Runs on a 9V battery of 9-18VDC adapter. Sells new for $280. This one’s in perfect shape in the box for $195., ().

Digital and Tape delay in one! Although it may not be cool to say it (just like saying solid state is a better amp for some styles of music), digital delay with it's pristine repeats, can be much better than analog. That's not to say that it's better than analog; just different. Analog or Tape Delay features a warmth and/or warble that is decidedly vintage and very cool.

Enter the Pink Panther Delay. It features a side-mounted Digital/Tape switch to go between the crystaline perfection to warm and compressed beauty. Features: Digital setting for hi-fi and clean with loads of headroom; Tape setting with saturation/compression emulates good old tape delays. The Dark control removes highs formore warmth, Mod1 has a subtle shimmering while Mod2 is darker with more intense modulation. It also features tap tempo via onboard footswitch or external switch.

Lots of good demos online. From ProGuitarShop. Sells new for $249. This unit is mint in the box for $175(HOLD-Carlo 12/11)., (), (), (), (“”), (), (). Excellent guitar for the Keith Richards fan, outfitted with a 1972 Gibson embossed humbucker. Pickup is most likely a T-top as evidenced by the embossed chrome cover, Patent sticker on the bottom and the braided wire. It sounds absolutely incredible and the output is well matched with the original Tele bridge pickup.

More good news for the player is it has a brand new pro refret: Refretted with 0152 frets, which are.048X.092. These frets are a great compromise between the original vintage frets and modern jumbos like 6105’s. The 0152’s are slightly lower but slightly wider than jumbo 6105. The fretboard was planed during the refrets so there are no dips in the fretboard and the guitar plays beautifully. Everything else looks 100% straight including ’65 pots, which are common on Fenders through the early 70’s. The body was routed to accommodate the humbucker but it’s the right size and not a hammer/chisel job.

Sunburst finish has that nice vintage patina which would buff out to a high gloss if desired. Worst flaw is normal finish checking and some finish chips around the edge ().

Weight is nice at 7 lbs. Overall this guitar has the “right” relic vibe, earned by 45+ years of use and proper care. If the Custom Shop were to start building a ’72 Relic with a humbucker, it would be over $4K. Get the real thing for a nice price. $2400 includes original case in nice vintage condition. OFF-HOLD:, (), (), (), (), (), (), (). Another great TMDC and just 7 lbs., 2 oz.!

This one appears to be the first batch of regular production model with a black headstock and unengraved pickups rather than from the limited initial run. Like the Ltd model, we agree with the consensus that this is PRS's best ever interpretation of a late 50's 'Burst.

In fact, for a YouTube comparison with a '58 Historic VOS. The 57/08 pickups, nitrocellulose finish, 24.5' scale, bound neck, and vintage style tuners combine to lend a traditional look, feel, and tone. The first thing you'll notice is the original PRS headstock (commonly referred to as a Santana headstock), which harkens back to the early Annapolis days. Other features include highly figured maple '10' top, 22 frets, mahogany neck with wide/fat carve, East Indian rosewood fretboard with 'pre-2008' style bird inlays, bound neck, stop tail bridge, nickel hardware, 57/08 covered humbuckers, 3-way toggle with push/pull pot.

If you're looking for a classic LP tone, for me this guitar is better than any Historic model I've played in terms of tone, feel, and looks. I love the shorter scale on the this model.

At 24.5' it's a tad shorter than a Les Paul and a 1/2' shorter than their regular scale which is just enough to make a 5-fret stretch possible. This body is much easier to play in the upper register than an LP and once you play it, you might never go back to a Paul. It has seen very little playing time with perfect frets and a killer, low set up. Other than two small clear coat scratches on back, it's in immaculate condition and a nice savings compared to new. This model sells new with '10' top and birds for $3459-$3800 but you can own this killer feather-weight TMDC245 for just $2099., (), (), (), (). 2009 was a cool year for the Custom 22. First off pickups are the classic HFS/Vintage Bass, rather than the usual Dragon pickups.

Pickup selector is a 5-way blade switch rather than the 5-way rotary, which I've yet to bond with all these years. Can ANYone really tell at a glance what setting they're on? Lastly, it has the open Bird inlays. Other features are your normal Custom with a mahogany body, figured maple cap, mahogany neck with rosewood board, PRS hardtail bridge, 25' scale length, 22 frets, Phase II locking tuner, master volume and tone knobs, and wide-fat neck profile. Pickup settings with the blade selector are: Bridge humbucker; Bridge humbucker with neck single coil in parallel; Bridge and Neck humbuckers; Neck single coil with bridge single coil, in parallel; Neck humbucker.

These tone choices offer a vast improvement over a 3-way switch and I even like it better than McCarty switching, albeit with one less tone choice. Cosmetically there are just some light scratches but it’s on the bench right now getting buffed out so it’s going to perfect or close to it. I don’t get in many trans-black PRS’s but they’ve gained popularity over the past 10 years so I’ll be buying them more aggressively. Super nice Custom 22 at the right price. $1699 includes original case (not as clean as the guitar) and paperwork., (), (), (), (), ().

Immaculate condition! Low End Guitars in Nashville is known primarily for building high end basses but they do some pretty great guitars as well.

One of the cool features of this model is the bent top, with a beautiful flamed koa top over a 2pc ash body. Not merely a veneer, this is a genuine koa cap. Other features include birdseye maple fretboard, string-thru-body hardtail bridge, recessed neck screws, quality Gotoh tuners, and Jason Lollar pickups, among the best made pickups in the past 20 years. I found this model on their site around 3 weeks ago but I can’t find it now. It showed a price of $2200 for a plain body, $300 more for the koa/ash combination.

This is by all accounts a high end Strat. It plays with ease, sounds excellent, and may be the best value I’ve had in years for a guitar of this pedigree. Just $1099(HOLD-Joe C 12/4) including hardshell case., (), (), (), (), ( and ), (), ().

Desirable mid-60's era EB-0 in all original condition. Gibson has always chased Fender in bass guitars, never gaining the popularity of the P or J basses, but they have a cool tone and these EB-0's with their short scale and narrow neck width are great for guitarists making the change to bass. When I was a youngster an EB was my dream bass, probably because Jack Bruce in his Cream days played one and he showed what a mahogany bass could sound like.

This bass is 100% original with no touch-ups or overspray on the finish, all original solder joints, and pots both dated to mid-'65, which agrees with the serial number. It has the complete original bridge, including string mute. Please note that the bridge can be lowered if the mute is removed but it's still a decent player in stock condition. Other than finish checking this bass is in remarkably nice shape and hasn't seen a lot of playing time. The only real wear is a spot on the back where the finish is missing, but frets are perfect so I'm guessing it's seen little playing time. Heritage Cherry frequently fades to brown or a weak red but this finish is as strong as you'll find. Pickguard () is missing a small corner and is cracked on another (we can fix for free).

It has a nice set up and like the SG, the kind of tone that is sweeter by virtue of 50 year old wood. At $1399 it's a great price for a '65 in this condition and around the same price as a recent reissue. When it comes down to it, I can't imagine buying a new instrument when you can get a comparable vintage model at a comparable price. Includes original semi-hard case with plush red lining, with one hasp missing but otherwise in nice shape., (), (), (), (), (). Get Taylor's superb playability and sweet tone for a sweet price.

This is one of Taylor's early 200-series, made in El Cajon USA. Not long after this one was built production moved to Mexico. As you can see in the pics it has been upgraded with a L. Baggs VTC pickup with volume and tone controls located just inside the soundhole. 9V battery, usually good for a year or more, is firmly attached inside and easily accessible via the soundhole. This model features all solid woods with a spruce top, sapele back and sides, mahogany neck, and ebony fretboard.

Other features include satin natural finish, 20-fret neck with 14 frets clear of the body, dot inlays, 15-3/4' lower bout, 3-5/8' to 4-3/8' body depth, 1-11/16' nut width, 25-1/2' scale, tortoise plastic pickguard, black-bound body, white/black purfling and chrome sealed tuners. The Grand Concert body style is a favorite of most Taylor fans due to being equally useful for fingerstyle or strumming. Cosmetically there are just some light pick marks but overall nice shape with an incredibly comfortable set up. Supplied case for 200-series has always been a gigbag but this one is upgraded with a very tidy $200 Taylor luggage case. For a USA Taylor with Baggs pickup and Taylor case it’s a nice buy at $639(HOLD – Carlos U 12/2)., (), (), (), (), (). 'As is' special!

Can't be set up with low action without some serious neck work so I'm offering this 'as is' for the slide player or someone who plays only cowboy chords (see action at 12th fret above). Manual Block Adobe From Checking Validation Of View more. Other than the action, this guitar is quite intact without extraneous rattles and no breaks, with a cool 'Blind Willie Lemon' tone that's well suited for delta blues. I don't know a lot about this model other than it has rather austere cosmetics for a Gretsch, with a painted on logo but it does feature a bound neck and body, and block fretboard inlays. Fretboard is Brazilian rosewood, which is a cool feature any day, and what appears to be original tortoise pickguard. Finish has a wonderfully aged patina, typical with nitro finishes including nicely yellowed binding that's in remarkably nice shape for a 50's Gretsch and worn away to bare wood over the back of the neck.

Serial 4779 stamped inside F-hole which should date it to '51. I'm into it for $400 and after talking to my luthier it's not going to be cost effective to make it a killer Spanish style player thus it's offered as is for $450.. Mid ‘00’s but will work on most any Tele. String-through-body plate, six American series bridge saddles with offset intonation screws. Highly polished chrome. Includes mounting screws not pictured.

Recent model, ’07 to present with new style bent saddles on chrome-plated brass bridge. Includes mounting screws not pictured. American Standard “Raw Deal” bridge with Glendale “Twang” cutting edge saddles (aluminum E/A with brass D/G and B/E). New cost is $99.99 and $57.99 respectively. Get the whole set up for $109.. Highly desirable pedal.

1985 Green label Japan-made model. These MIJ CE’s are thought by many to be the best sounding chorus ever made. Very nice shape as these go.

Works perfectly. One of the best for a true Strat tone without the hum. This one’s a neck position but it’ll work for any depending on output you’re looking for. Lead was pro spliced, no problem. New these are $113 plus shipping from Australia. Get this one for $59/shipped., (). What do you get when you combine a Boss CE-1 and Boss CE-2?

The new CE-2W. It does all the sounds made famous by the CE-1 Chorus Ensemble, the very first Boss pedal ca. 1976 plus the wildly popular CE-2 Chorus ca. The CE-1 is classic '70's Chorus and vibrato, now with a variable depth (original was fixed). The CE-2 is likewise improved, now offering true stereo. Like the originals this pedal is made in Japan. As new condition other than Velcro on the bottom but rubber pad/label was removed to preserve it.

Sells new for $199. Get this mint used one for $139(HOLD-Kurt 11/28)., (), ().

Brand new condition - paperwork still sealed and comes with optional Boss PSA power supply. Latest and greatest from Boss with 32-bit/96 kHz AD/DA, extensive programmability and numerous advanced features. In addition to 198 storage slots it features 12 modes and 21 reverb types, each with sound-shaping parameters like modulation, ducking, and EQ. You get everything from standard reverbs to shimmer, non-linear, fast decay, SFX, and more, plus classic Roland SRV-2000 and RE-201 Space Echo. You can even use two patches at once with Simul mode.

There’s also a free editor/librarian software is available which allows you to edit sounds and organize patches on a computer via USB. Here’s a good demo () and check out the shimmering reverb around 3:42. Runs on 4 AA batteries or optional Boss PSA adapter. Sells new for $ 349, or $379 with a Boss adapter. Get this one in brand new condition for $100 less.

$279 includes Boss PSA-120S adapter., (), (), (), (), (). More PRS’s are coming! This one is a perfect guitar for the pro player.

Brand new refret by my guy Martin, with zero hours on the frets plus clear coat dings primarily around the edge () make this a top-shelf PRS priced for the working guitarist. Artist Package includes Artist-grade top, gold hardware, and colorful Paua shell bird inlays, plus a rosewood headstock veneer with Paua shell PRS logo. This one features the wide-thin neck carve, the preference of around 80% of our customers.

The Artist package includes the top quality figured tops which exceed their “10” tops (termed 'artist grade' by PRS), extremely colorful Paua bird inlays, rosewood headstock overlay with inlaid colorful Paua shell inlaid logo, Artist case with velvet interior and dual combo locks, gold hardware including Phase II locking tuners and PRS tremolo. Many players prefer the Custom 22, which has a stiffer feel than a Custom 24. This is due to the 22 having a 'shorter' neck, i.e.

With the bridge and bridge pickup are set further back in the body which means the scale is the same as a 24, but the neck doesn't extend as far from the body. It's very much a Les Paul feel, although with much easier playability in the upper range, not to mention a wider selection of tones. These guitars are a good example of 'guitars as art' and each are unique and works of beauty. Finished in a dark amber, with a beautifully bookmatched maple top that looks great from any angle. Other than the clear coat dings this guitar is in pretty nice shape and would look great as a stage guitar. Playability is top notch with these Jescar 51108 frets.

They’re.051X.108, a bit larger than a Dunlop 6150. Just a really nice guitar. It’s not often that I can offer an Artist for the price of a regular Custom but this one is welcome exception. With brand new frets it’s a sweet deal at $1850. Includes Artist case, trem arm, spare tuner screws, Allen keys, and paperwork., (), (), (), (). 7 Lbs, 3 Ozs!

Super lightweight original McCarty model, finished in Charcoal with perfectly bookmatched maple. As with all '10' tops, the flame remains consistent side-to-side, up into the end of both horns on upper bout. The McCarty was briefly discontinued after being in production for 14 years, returning in 2008 as the McCarty Smokeburst. This is one of the original models with several features unique to this model, most notably a mahogany body that's 1/8' thicker than other PRS's, a headstock that's slightly thinner and with a greater headstock angle, and vintage style non-locking tuners, all of which are a nod to the 50's guitar that Ted McCarty designed for Gibson.

Other features include wide-fat neck, McCarty Treble and Bass pickups with McCarty switching (3-way switching and push/pull coil tap), compensated wraparound stoptail bridge, silver-nickel pickup covers, and mahogany body with a thick maple cap. Overall very nice condition with only a few minor clearcoat impressions and some slight discoloration to the nickel hardware. All original and a great sounding guitar with excellent sustain. The set up is typically phenomenal, much better than your average Paul and for tone, playability, comfort, and looks, I think this is a much better value, especially with the optional 10-top, at $1599. Includes PRS case., (), (), (), (). Kay is a little tricky with dating and figuring out model names, but I was able to identify the model by the body stamp ('L4287 6970') and it appears identical to the Swing Master K6970 in the 1960 catalog shown in 'Guitar Stories Part II' (pg. 131) by Michael Wright.

It's a medium depth hollowbody archtop, measuring 15 3/8' at the lower bout. Features include laminated spruce top with laminated maple body, flamed maple back, set neck construction, bound neck with 19-frets on a rosewood board, 14 frets clear of the body, Venetian cutaway, double-bound body multi-ply binding on top, dual 'speed bump' single coil pickups, 3-leg trapeze tailpiece with cross bar, rosewood bridge, dual volume and tone controls with white Bakelite radio-style knobs. These came in 1, 2, and 3 pickup models with the 2-pickup K6970 selling for $139.50, with the finished described as 'shaded walnut finish with golden highlights', a term we now refer to as tobacco sunburst. The flamed maple back on this is unusual for a budget line guitar and from the comparable models I've seen on the web, as nice as you'll find on this model. Many cheaper models had fake painted flames but this one is the real deal. Kay's history goes back to the 1890's and in in 1928, Henry Kay Kuhrmeyer bought the company, and by 1934 the company was officially known as the 'Kay Musical Instrument Company'. Their factory was located in Chicago IL, the Mecca of guitar building, before adding another plant in Elk Grove IL in '64.

Among their accomplishments, perhaps most notably they were the first maker of electric guitars, a disputable but, quite likely, true assertion. Kay was the largest USA guitar builder during the golden era. In addition to the Kay brand, they were the builders for many other brands including Airline (Montgomery Wards), Silvertone and Supertone (Sears & Roebuck), Old Kraftsmen (Spiegel), and Truetone (Western Auto), to name just a few. Department stores or catalogs were the largest sellers of guitars when I was a kid and if you bought one during the 60's, chances are it was made by Kay. This guitar plays good for an old Kay with typical medium action, getting higher as you go up the neck. Currently set up with a fresh set of flat wound strings, in the jazz box tradition.

The pickups are lower output and have a unique tone of their own. It's all original, with the exception of tuners and in extremely nice shape for 50 years with the worst flaw being a worn spot on the back, typical with a thin nitro finish, but it has obviously seen very little playing time with near perfect frets and minimal extraneous wear. For a vintage American archtop, especially with a real flamed maple back, a nice buy at $599. Will include a gigbag but I might have a hardshell that fits it., (). Removed from a ‘12 American Special Tele, clean shape.

Not the cloth wires used on custom shop but still the same pickup and just $69/pair.. Great pickup for your Strat neck. $85 new or get this clean used one for $55. Think I have the box and instructions as well.. Trio of DiMarzio pickups - used but in original boxes with screws, springs, and instructions.

Vintage tone without the hum. Made with Alnico V magnets, custom magnet wire, and parchment covers. Tone is crisp, clear, and quiet. This is a used set and does not include pots but does include screws and rubber spacers.

Sells new for $175. Get this used set for $99., (), (), (), (), (.). The American Special is one of Fender’s recent models that now offers the best value in a gloss finish American Tele. This is my favorite of these models. Fender chose quality pickups for this model, the custom shop Texas Special, formerly reserved for only high end models. It is currently outfitted with Noiseless N3 pickups ($159 new) but we’re including both sets of pickups. One other mod is the Fender mint green pickguard ($29) which we can swap to the stock black one () if desired.

While I wouldn’t say N3’s are quite THE vintage Tele tone, for most players they will be the perfect choice. If you play modern country, you’ll probably love them. They have the Tele twang, but are fatter sounding and, of course, quiet. Controls are 3-way switch with master volume and 'greasebucket' tone circuit which allows roll-off of the tone control without adding bass. Other features include alder body with Gloss urethane finish, maple neck with modern C-shape profile vintage logo, vintage style Tele bridge with 3 brass saddles, modern 9.5' radius, 25.5' scale, and 22 jumbo frets.

This is an impressive guitar for the money. The finish is impeccable save for one small dent on the side that Martin is finishing over. It also has nice sustain, quality tone, and a great neck that sets up with nice low action. New ones are going for $999 with a Fender gigbag but you can get this beauty, with $188 worth of extras, for just $799.

Includes original gigbag, paperwork, and extra original parts mentioned.. Kinman pickups are made in Australia and are among the finest pickups being built today.

This complete pickguard includes their Traditional Mk-III set (two AVN56's and an AVN62) which produce a gracefully-aged SWEET vintage Strat tone that is also noise-free. What I have noticed about Kinman's are their extreme articulation in tone; notes ring very clear and chords have an 'airy' tone. I've played just about every pickup on the market and I honestly believe that Kinmans are in a class by themselves. No other maker has the clarity of these Kinmans. This set, pickups only, sells for $265 plus shipping from Australia.

This set is prewired to a USA pots and switch, as well as an Orange Drop capacitor, all mounted on a Fender gold anodized pickguard. Get the whole assembly, drop in ready, for just $229(HOLD-Squire M 11/24).. Studio-quality direct box + pre-amp + equalizer. For a very modest price, this could possibly the last preamp you'll ever need for your acoustic. Quasi-passive 5-band EQ with sweepable mids, notch filter, and presence control. Boosts your signal up to an incredible 24dB.

Runs on 48V phantom power or a 9V battery, phase inversion for the best recording mix, XLR balanced output, ultrahigh input impedance to get the best out of any pickup, series effects loop and low cut filter to eliminate thumps. Sells new for $189 - save big and get this clean used one for $125(HOLD-John D 11/21). OFF-HOLD:, ().

I’m not sure what model it’s made for but it’s made for a thinline hollowbody and fits an ES-335. Lower bout is around 16”; upper is around 12.5”. Black covering with plush green interior. Very clean vintage case with all latches and hinges in great shape. $115., (), (), (). This is pretty cool in my book.

All the tone of an SG Standard with the simplicity of a wraparouand tailpiece and single volume/tone controls. It started its life as a Junior with a single P90 pickup. Add an SG Standard pickguard and a pair of Gibson humbuckers (490R and 490T) and, voila, a Jr-Std! Other features include Gibson Deluxe tuners, compensated nickel tailpiece, gold screened logo, all-mahogany body/neck with a rosewood fretboard, dot inlays, single volume and tone controls, and three way switch. Neck is a 50’s rounded, so it’s just slightly chunky. Nitro gloss finish has plenty of luster to it with the only flaws being cosmetic including a few minor dings and scratches, the worst of which is a large V-shaped scratch in the waist shown in the pic of the back. Nothing horrible.

If you’re a player who likes resting your hand on a stud tailpiece, which is great for string damping, this one offers that comfort with the tone of a dual humbucker SG. $629 includes a nice Gibson gigbag., (), (). A great choice for the stage or studio, serving as a hardware multi-effects processor or as a computer plug-in via USA port.

It has MIDI ins and outs and stereo 1/4 inch inputs and outputs as well. It contains a great selection of Lexicon quality effects, including 128 presets. For you guys who like to tweak their sound, all of the programs have at least five pages that have different parameters that you can adjust to your own liking.

All of the functions are also accessible from the front menu which is great because it means you don’t have to go through a bunch of sub menus to get to where you need to be. Effects include reverbs, delays, chorus, flanger, vibrato, pitch shift, tremolo, and other time-domain effects and combinations. Cosmetically these are in good shape and the only minor gripe is the 'slow' adjustment wheel that these are famous for. You can read/download the manual and quick reference guide. Before Lexicon started building good quality Asian units, they were made in the USA and, although mid-priced for Lexicon the sound quality is similar to the expensive PCM90. The overall sound quality is very clean and for studio quality processor, it's a sweet deal at $150/each (2 available)., (), (), (), (), (), (). Not just another of the lower powered tube amps, the RM22 gives you two amps in one, and you get to select which amps you want to use. Based on the success of Randall's larger MTS series, the RM22 uses swappable MTS modules which are actually preamps that you can quickly swap out and change the character of the amp instantly.

This one comes with the 'Ultra' and 'Deluxe' modules installed, which are patterned after the Fender Deluxe. With the footswitchable Boost switch, you have a nice four-mode amp, enough cool tones to satisfy just about any song. The 'Ultra' module makes this a high-gain amp, with a huge bottom end and cutting upper mids, while the 'Deluxe' module is based on the preamp circuit of a Fender Blackface Deluxe with a great tone for country, accented mid-range and top end spank, with more bite than a vintage Blackface. Together you have a perfect clean/dirty combination. Specs include black cloth front; 18 Watts RMS into 8/16 Ohms; EL84 power tubes; front panel channel switch; tube boost function w/Gain and Level controls; master density & presence controls; series effects loop; rear panel bias test points; direct recording out w/'Mic Eliminator' circuit; 3-button footswitch; and world voltage AC input selector. At 18 watts, its easy to send this amp into controllably smooth, creamy overdrive at manageable volume levels and, with over 20 modules to choose from, it’s likely the most versatile low wattage tube amp on the market.

It is extremely well suited for small gigs and the studio, where it's become somewhat of a fixture in many Nashville studios. This model debuted at the '09 NAMM show and has been discontinued. Plenty of modules are available on the used market for $125-$300 each. Original discount price on this amp was $1100; this one's in beautiful shape in the original box and priced at just $479 for amp only or $679(HOLD-Kenny M 11/16) INCLUDING the two modules. (Note: Seymour Duncan had the same idea in the late 80's with his 'Convertible' head, which I also have in stock, 60 watts, $429), (), Although 13 years old this is actually a new-old-stock guitar.

The Discovery line was Floyd’s answer to an affordable, quality-made import model to go with their USA series. They use the same unique patented Speed-Loader system as well as the low-mass headstock. Features the new Floyd Rose Speedloader tremolo bridge, 3 high-output single coils, Basswood body, and the cool, low-mass headstock that's constructed largely of 'air'. The best thing about the Speedloader system is string changes can be done in less than a minute - it's truly a no-brainer easy job. These guitars are very well constructed as you'd expect with anything that Floyd would put his name on - with excellent setup and quality tone. These sold for $399 everywhere for the guitar alone but this one INCLUDES genuine Floyd Rose accessories including gigbag, strap, picks, cable, and tools for just $299 - plus a pro-setup that's better than factory., (). Like the DST1-R above, this is new-old-stock.

It’s the same basic design as the DST-1 above except in a non-tremolo model with the Speedloader Fixed Bridge with dual hot humbuckers. These sold for $399 everywhere for the guitar alone but this one INCLUDES genuine Floyd Rose accessories including gigbag, strap, picks, cable, and tools for just $299 - plus a pro-setup that's better than factory., (), (), ( ), (.). Looks like your stock Tele with Nashville (Strat middle pickup) set up, but it’s so much more. The “Power” lies in its ability to do Tele tones, Strat tone, and an excellent acoustic tone. This is done with the addition of the Fender/Fishman Power Bridge, which features six piezo transducer bridge pickups to produce shimmering acoustic sounds.

It’s also built with a stereo jack so with the addition of a stereo Y-cable you can send your electric pickups to your guitar amp, while sending your piezo/bridge pickup to your acoustic amp or mixer. It also works fine with a mono cable and you can select either tone, or easily blend your two tones for some cool combinations. For years session players in Nashville had been modding their Tele’s with a Strat pickup added in the middle position and substituting a 5-way switch to allow any pickup by itself, or blending neck/middle or bridge middle. Fender kept the outward appearance unmodified by substituting a stacked knob for the electric pickup volume and tone, while the back knob is wired as volume control for the Fishman bridge. Other features include gloss-finish alder body, Fender Tex-Mex Tele single-coil pickups in the bridge and neck positions with a Tex-Mex Strat pickup in the middle position, modern C-shaped neck with rosewood fretboard, 9.5” radius, medium jumbo frets, synthetic bone nut, vintage-style tuners, and easy access 9V battery door on back. For a Russian demo, with acoustic tones starting around 4:35. Although the “Power” model is no longer in production, the current “regular” model Nashville Tele (without the Fishman acoustic) sells for $799, which is $179 less than this model last sold for.

Offered in superb condition, with a superb set up. Yours for just $599 including Fender gigbag., (), (), ().

First run Korean reissue. Dano discontinued this model many years ago when they opted to build only one model at a time. Eventually they started building a '56 again, but they were Chinese made with various feature changes. None of the Chinese models were dual lipstick pickups with a Coke bottle headstock and the last generation models had only single volume and tone, rather than stacked pots, and other models went to steel saddles rather than the original rosewood bridge, which makes these early Korean models the most historically accurate reissues ever built. These Dano's are every bit as good as the original 50's Dano/Silvertone models and one of the best values on the market, used by garage bands and even pro's like Dave Matthews. Nothing sounds like them and once Martin gets them on his bench, they play with the ease of very expensive guitars.

His setups on Dano's is simply incredible. If you're looking for a great U-2, this one is near flawless and a great U-2 for $299. Add Dano faux tweed gigbag () for $22., (), (). From the Deluxe Series come these upscale models with all the vintage features you know and love, with the main difference being *tone*, namely the Fender 'Powerhouse' ultra quiet pickup system, with pickups designed specifically for this model.

The other feature that sets this one apart is the active mid-boost circuit (9V battery), adding up to 12db of mid-boost, like the Clapton signature Strat. In fact, the part number for the preamp was the same one as the Clapton model. You can still get the Strat shimmering clean but turn up the mid boost and the guitar fattens up to a tone that's almost like a humbucker. Battery will last for a year or two if unplugged when not in use and is easily accessible via a 'door' on the back of the guitar, a much-improved system over removing the pickguard to get to the battery. This one’s in NOS condition, other than the plastic film has been removed. Includes deluxe Fender gigbag and trem arm, plus a pro setup that's better than factory. With a regular Mex Standard Strat selling for $599, these are better guitars and $120 less at $479(HOLD-Brian N 11/21)., (), (), (), ().

Beautifully figured Custom Shop body finished in Bing Cherry Transparent with the rest being 2012 American Deluxe parts including neck, hardware, and electronics. Ash bodies are usually randomly figured but this one has highly figured grain in parallel lines that run the length of the body. Other pieces are American Deluxe including a rosewood board neck with perfectly dressed frets and rolled fretboard edges, N3 Noiseless pickups controlled by a 5-way and S-1 switch, locking tuners, and fulcrum style tremolo with stamped saddles. These N3’s are clearly the best of the Noiseless series, sounding much more Stratty, when you want that tone, plus much fatter tones via the S-1. It plays as good as it looks and is in nice shape overall. Includes trem arm and SKB case with ATA latches. Nice deal at $1050., ().

New in sealed box. Originally offered as a companion to the AC30CCH, Vox AC50CPH, and AC100CPH amp heads, but it's a good choice for anyone looking for vintage styling in a good sounding 4X12 that will handle 120 watts. Equipped with VOX/Wharfdale original vintage style GSH 12-30 12' speakers and swivel casters are included. These have been discontinued but they sold new for $549-$679. This one's just $299 plus shipping (97 lbs.)., ().

The legendary flanger/filter matrix. In addition to a great sounding flanger, the filter matrix mode takes the automatic sweep out of the circuit to create very unique chimey, shimmering tones. For a YouTube demo on the reissue.

This one’s over 35 years old but still works great. Early model Version one from ’00. As players become more attuned to quality sound, I get more and more requests from players for clean boosts. This is one of the best for the money. The Fat-Boost Class A Discrete design offers up to up to 30db of Clean Boost without any change to your EQ; makes your sound Bigger, with more even-order harmonics. Blues players with the vintage-type tube amps will never turn this thing off. Works great in front of Master-Volume amps to kick them up a notch.

Perfect shape and made with the best components. This is the original model Fat Boost and sold new for $159 but this one' perfect with manual and just $89.. Don’t know how this got separated from my Uni-Vibe but I can’t find it, only the pedal.

It’s your basic expression pedal that controls the Uni-Vibe Chorus/Vibrato speed and effect/bypass functions. Sells for $104 new on Amazon.

This used one’s in nice shape and just $45.. Exact copy of the KT88 tubes that were manufactured by Marconi-Osram for Marshall from the late 60s through the 70s. Great choice for a Marshall Major or any amp that can run KT88s. These are supplied by New Sensor Corp of New York, who bought the right to re-manufacture these tubes.

These are new, old stock and made in Russia. Nice deal at $65/pair.. Another fine tube from New Sensor Corp NY who now owns the Xpo-Pul factory (AKA Reflektor) in Saratov, Russia.

Excellent choice for any 6L6/5881 amps. New, old stock and a great upgrade for just $39/pair..

New Sensor’s reissue of the famed Mullard 12AX7 (or ECC83). Made at the Russian Xpo-Pul factory now owned by New Sensor Corp of NY. Quality is first rate. New, old stock, $29/pair., (), (), (), (). If you ’re a fan of Tim Shaw pickups, this one ’s got ‘em. Absolutely killer playing Custom, even by LP Custom standards. Nothing sets up like a Custom - the neck angle on these are inevitably perfect - and this one is superb.

Very low action at the nut - all the way up. Additionally, this is one of the better *sounding* Pauls I've had, with some nice tone wood and a original Tim Shaw humbuckers, believed by some to be the best Gibson has made since the early 60’s.

Excellent sustain, not overly dark sounding, and no 'ghost' notes with all notes ringing true without the annoying low harmonic overtones. Since their debut in 1957, the Custom has been the Cadillac of the Gibson solidbody line, with features like multi-ply body binding, bound neck, multi-ply headstock binding, gold hardware, inlaid logo and split diamond on headstock, and block inlays. This one has seen some playing time so there are scratches in the clearcoat, moderate gold wear, and a small spot on back that’s worn through the nitro finish. This guitar was built before Gibson chambered out their bodies but it’s not at all heavy by 80 ’s standards. Overall, it's in pretty nice shape for 35 years and with a new Custom running $4799, this is truly a 'good one' and an excellent value on a vintage Les Paul at $2500., (). All original, genuine vintage Musicmaster neck.

Original vintage frets in near perfect shape. Had this on a guitar years ago and it set up fantastic; truss works perfectly.

Includes nut and tuner ferrules. No issues and a quality neck for $339(HOLD-Jacob 12/8). A ’58 that’s not nearly as nice just for $424/shipped.. Brand new 4mm NV2 bridge in gold finish.

This one's 'as new' for just $139. FOUND – somebody wanted this a week or two ago. Just found it:, (), (), (), (), (), (). Back in the days of MTV’s “Unplugged”, the Washburn Festival Series was a mainstay of performers.

They have a cool look, sound very good amplified, and with the thinner body are very comfortable to play onstage. Additionally, the thinner body is less prone to feedback. An identical model with “Melissa” inlaid on the fretboard was sold as a limited edition model in collaboration with Gregg Allman, and there was also a Nuno Bettencourt EA-22 that looked the same other than fretboard inlays. These came with either a spruce or mahogany top, with solid mahogany bodies, in a mini-jumbo cutaway design.

This one is a mahogany top. It features a body that’s bound top and back, bound neck, bound headstock, Grover tuners, 14 frets clear, Florentine cutaway, and very large oval soundhole. Preamp is a British-made Equis II, which was a higher end system back in ’94 with separate Hi-Z and XLR D.I. Outs, Low-Mid-Hi active EQ, Contour and Level knobs, and LED’s for operation and low battery.

After 20 years Washburn has resurrected this model, although it’s a much affordable model (Chinese?) than these original Festivals. This one’s in very nice shape and a good buy for fans of MTV at $250., (), (), (), (), (), (). Top quality Japan-made Tak from their Natural series. Japanese Taks are some of the finest acoustics I’ve had. They are built for road use and they age very well. Woods are spruce top, rosewood sides and back, ebony fretboard, and mahogany neck.

It is beautifully adorned with abalone purfling surrounding the soundboard, natural wood binding, a wide rosette of abalone and jacaranda, with a matching inlay on the 12th fret. If you need to plug in and play, this one has already been upgraded with an active L.R. Baggs I-Beam pickup, with a volume control located just inside the soundhole. This one had a top crack () that was pro repaired, glued, cleated, and lacquered over.

It poses no problem to performance and should never be an issue. Otherwise, there’s the normal player wear including pick scratches around the sound hole and impressions in the clear coat. Nothing horrible at all. As you can see in the pics the finish has developed a nice faded patina from age. Set up is quite comfortable up and down the neck. Tonally, it’s very balanced for a rosewood. The lows aren’t going to blow you away, the highs aren’t overly pronounced, and the mids aren’t at all boxy.

It’s sort of the perfect mix. This is a high end Tak at a good price.

$679 includes a nice TKL hardshell case., (). 1980’s Poodle case for your full size Taylor dreadnought (310, 510, 810, etc.) Typical shape for 30 years. Download Fab 3000 V6 Keygen Mac. Interior is nice, all hardware intact, just some wear around the edges where wood is visible. If you have a late 80’s Taylor, this is the right home for your guitar and just $115., (), (), (), ( ), ( and ). Mystic Ice Blue finish! Brand new model and one fine Tele. Latest version of the revolutionary Tele Thinline, first marketed in 1969.

The original idea was to produce a more lightweight Tele, while retaining the guitar's signature tone. This latest version, called the Elite Tele Thinline does that and more.

This model features Fender's new 4th generation Noiseless pickups, which sound like a Tele, without any of the harshness associated with the vintage pickups. They are also very compatible with virtually any OD or distortion pedal, again, without harshness. They sound as great clean as they do with loads of gain, sort of the perfect modern Tele tone. You'll also notice a different type of bridge on this guitar. The new Elite Suspension Bridge features three intonatable brass saddles is a unique design engineered specifically for this guitar. A screwless mount increases the transfer of energy to ensure better sustain and a more lively response.

It features a comfortable compound radius (9.5”-14”). Not just the fretboard is compound. While it's a modern “C”-shape at the nut, it morphs along the length of the neck to a modern “D” profile at the heel. The heel, by the way, is updated as well, making it easier to play in the upper register. Tuners are short-post locking type and feature a greater break angle at the bone nut, buzz-free. They've also borrowed the idea for a truss rod wheel at the butt neck, which is my personal favorite. It's easy and you can keep tension on the neck while you adjust.

Other features include a bound ash body (very classy!), black chrome headstock logo, Schaller strap locks, and large pearloid fret markers. Lastly, it comes in a redesigned Elite Molded Case with TSA locks and includes a certificate of authenticity. Why pay $1999 for a new one when this one is “as new” with zero flaws, PLUS a pro set up, for way less. Includes Elite case with certificate, etc., ( ), (), (), (), (), ().

Incredible value on a 100% American Peavey. These are fairly rare and they seem to have been sleepers which I would probably attribute to their competition with the Wolfgang, which was produced during the same era. The Firenza, which came in several configurations, is similar to the Wolfgang in appearance and, in fact, was made in the same USA factory. They are sometimes referred to 'Leakesville Firenzas', made in Peavey's Leakesville factory from 1997 and 2002, roughly the same timeframe as the Wolfgang which was also produced there. With a variety of models (JX - HSS configuration and string-thru body; Soapbar - P90 pickups, mahogany body, tuneomatic bridge, and the top of the line AX - dual humbuckers with fulcrum tremolo and ash body) they were mid-priced guitars and excellent values for USA models. The AX, for example, retailed for $998, including case. There was also an entry level 'Impact-Firenza' which was a lower priced model.
