Fender American Elite Precision Bass Sunburst, 2018

On February 6, 2019 /

The Fender American Elite Precision Bass is at the top end of Fender’s bass models, offering the solid tone reliability and versatility of both the Precision and Jazz basses. It starts with the P-J combination, the P-Bass pickup in its normal spot and a Noiseless Jazz bass pickup at the bridge. It adds a new, high mass bridge with the strings loading through the body, a very solid five-bolt neck joint, Ebony fingerboard, and a 3-band EQ. All the hardware is top quality.

Rickenbacker Ken Roberts Electro Spanish Guitar, 1935

On January 29, 2019 /

The Ken Roberts model not only has a pickup, the neck is also ‘extended’ to meet the body at the 17th fret, and it has a vibrato tailpiece designed by Doc Kaufman. This exceptionally rare example is in good playing condition. Most people associate the first electric guitars with Leo Fender or the Gibson Les Paul, but the Rickenbacker ‘Frying Pan’ lap steel guitar predated those by almost two decades, appearing in 1931.

Construction of the 2015 Gibson SG Standard followed the traditional line – a solid Mahogany body, Mahogany neck and bound Rosewood fingerboard. The hardware was upgraded to the new tuners and zero fret nut, but many also shipped with a set of standard Grover Roto-Matic tuners, or a set was available, should the purchaser not want the G-Force tuners.

Gibson SJ-100 1941 Reissue Sunburst, 2013

On January 21, 2019 /

Built in Bozeman, Montana and for the moment out of production, the Gibson SJ-100 1941 Reissue recreates the sound and feel of the pre-war Mahogany body jumbo. The Super Jumbo body style appeared in 1938 and is best known for the J-200 model, with Spruce top and Maple for the back and sides, and often highly decorated beyond the hand-painted pickguard. In 1939, the less expensive and less decorated SJ-100 appeared, with a Spruce top, but with Mahogany for the back and sides and with a much plainer – and thinner – pickguard.
