Gibson Les Paul Deluxe GoldTop, 1975

On January 18, 2024 /

Making its debut appearance in 1969, the Gibson Les Paul Deluxe layout was based on the 1950’s pre-humbucker P-90 models. The Deluxe body construction uses the same Maple cap on a Mahogany back as the Standard humbucker version, but the pickup routes accept either P-90s or mini-humbuckers which are mounted in P-90 sized support rings.

Sakurai No.8 Cedar Top Classical Guitar, 1977

On December 14, 2023 /

The M. Sakurai No.8 Cedar Top Classical guitars, indeed the entire line of Masaki Sakurai models, are under-appreciated gems. The set of guitars with labels reading ‘M. Sakurai Supervised by M. Kohno’ are from the period where Masaki Sakurai was still learning the craft from his uncle, Masaru Kohno.

Martin HD-28V Vintage Series Dreadnought, 2012

On November 29, 2023 /

The Martin HD-28V offered many vintage spec features as part of the Vintage Series produced from 1998 to late 2018. Based on the classic D-28, the ‘H’ refers to the Herringbone purfling used around the top, as was standard on Martins into the early years of WW2. At the start of that War, Martin realized that their herringbone purfling supplier was in Germany, and resupply would be impossible.
