The Hofner 500/1 ‘Beatle Bass’ was a very influentual instrument. Though it was outstripped by the Fender and Rickenbacker basses as stage volume levels rose exponentially and feedback became a very real problem, many popular recordings featured this instrument. This example is in good original shape and is fully playable.

This is one of the best examples of this kind of instrument we’ve seen for a long time. Rarely do we see unaltered mandolins of this age; it plays very well, sounds great, and is in excellent condition.

Here is an early 60’s Guild J-66 tube amp which features a Jensen P12S 12″ speaker. It also features two volume controls, treble, bass, tremolo strength and speed. It has a bit of wear and tear but is in working order and sounds great.

This is a relatively unusual guitar, and even more so as left handed. Gretsch introduced the Korean-built Historic Series line in 1999, and the last examples were made in 2003, replaced by the Electromatic line. Overall, this is a very nice little jazz guitar, just a bit bigger than a George Benson but smaller than an ES-175; it’s fully hollow with just longitudinal strut bracing.

Kramer built these guitars during a period when maximum sustain was highly sought after, and many makers used materials like aluminum and rock maple. Kramer used wodden inserts on the back of the neck to warm up the feel. These instruments are fairly rare, and they are well-made and interesting.
