1966 Gibson ES120T slimline hollow-body electric guitar
Pickup replaced with a period-correct Gibson Melody Maker (the same as the original) - these are fairly quiet and are often replace with more powerful P90s but I wanted to keep it as original as possible
Nice condition overall, some small marks but nothing considering the age
Comes in an oversize and shabby non-original case which I think is of a similar era - will have lots of padding inside as well as outside

A fantastic opportunity to acquire an excellent example of a Fender Japan JV ?62 reissue Stratocaster. These guitars have seldom been bettered and have proper vintage status as they move into their 44th year. This guitar has been brought back to its original specifications having had a number of pickup changes in its life, as many of these mid-80??s guitars did. The hardware is now all original including the US made purple formvar wound pickups. The neck and frets are in great condition having ... more

I have owned this amp for over 10 years and am now deciding to (reluctantly) let it go to someone who will actually use it. Used extensively for college studio work and the occasional live gig, considering the age of the amp it is in amazing condition with only a few marks and small tears in the tolex. Has sat dormant in the bedroom for the past few years, I didn??t want to part with it because the clean channel is simply divine (and who doesn??t like having a half stack in their room')
I... more

Hey all,
Looking to find a new home for this awesome vintage Ibanez . I??ve only had it for two minutes but I found it??s not really for me sadly, plus I??ve had an opportunity come up and I could use the money.
This is in what I would call ??used but not abused?? condition and overall what you would expect for a guitar that turns 50 next year. There??s some play marks on the pickups, some patina on the hardware, buckle rash on the back and some light and inoffensive playwear.
It??s ... more

A beautiful condition Marshall 1936 2x12 cab loaded with Celestion Vintage 30's (speaker codes in pics).
Originally stereo but currently wired as a single 8ohm load as it was partnered with a vintage JCM800 ( amp not included - for sale in a separate listing). Unused jack input blanked off.
I think it is a 2004 version, hardly a mark on it considering over 20 yrs old. I still have the Celestion G12T-75 speakers that were originally fitted, and can fit those instead of the Vintage 30's if... more

Selling my Fender F-15 acoustic. Plenty of minor scratches and dings as expected from a 50+ year old guitar, alongside general play wear. Tuners occasionally require a little fiddling but holds tune well and plays great (in my opinion). Check out ??Phil??s fenders?? (eBay won??t let me add links) for more info on these guitars. The serial number isn??t readable anymore but I believe these were only made in Japan in the 1970s. Get yourself a piece of fender history! I??ve had this for about 15 ... more

2-off vintage Celestion G12-125's with cambric edge / surround. 8-Ohms Owned these since 1984 and planned to use them for base drivers in a high-power hi-fi setup, but never really did. I did use them to replace a pair of 10" speakers in Rigonda cabinets for use out in the garage, but neighbours complained within hours!I think the mark on one cone is just glue from where a previous owner applied extra glue to the dust cones but spilt some. There is no evidence on the back of the cone of any ... more
