Yamaha SG2000 Reissue Red Sunburst, 2010 ( No Longer Available )

On October 4, 2023 /

Shown here is Yamaha SG2000 Reissue with Red Sunburst, built around July 2010 and in very good, original condition. Introduced in 1976, the Yamaha SG2000 was considered perhaps the finest solidbody guitar from Japan – perhaps from anywhere – for its time. This design was the result of a collaboration between Yamaha and Carlos Santana to improve the Yamaha SG175.

Martin D-18 Dreadnought Natural, 1943

On September 29, 2023 /

Seen here is a wartime (WW2!) Martin D-18 Dreadnought, built during 1943 at Nazareth PA and in great playing condition. Accompanied by a recent appraisal from George Gruhn, this piece is in structurally very good condition with wear expected for over 80 years of use. The back of the head does not have a ‘Made in USA’ stamp, which was typically used to identify guitars built for export, particularly to Canada.

Guild JF-30C Jumbo Flattop Cutaway Blonde, 1988

On September 25, 2023 /

The Guild JF-30C is a rare bird, built in small numbers during 1988 and 1989 in Westerly, Rhode Island as a cutaway version of the 17 inch jumbo JF-30. A quirk of this example is that the label identifies it as a JC-30. Some non-cutaway JF-30 models were also identified as J-30 on the label.
