This Used 1956 Martin 000-18 Acoustic Guitar in Natural is here on consignment. Moisture appears to have infiltrated the finish on the headstock, which has caused the finish to lift. Make sure to check out the pics. The rest of the guitar is free from this kind of wear. However, it has been played over the years, so it shows all the signs of a guitar that was played heavily, at least at some point throughout its life. There are a few heavy weather checks in the top, but we have inspected the ... more

This guitar has a few thoughtful modifications, and all the original parts are included
The original bridge was replaced because its design wasn??t very good. The current bridge plate was made by Jeff Senn in Nashville; he sold these for a while (not sure if they??re still available), and they??re a great upgrade if you actually want to play one of these guitars. The plate includes five mounting holes, but this Dano model only uses three screws, so only three of the holes are used. The plate... more

It's kind of funny listing a part for restoration that needs restoration! But it's a genuine Fender knob from a 1956 Telecaster that is also correct for Precision Bass. It's in decent shape, well-worn knurling and cool patina that looks like crazing in the chrome. The hole has been drilled out, probably because the original screw was frozen. It can be repaired by bleeding solder into the hole and then redrilling and tapping it for a new set screw. I've done it with ... more

Die Delta-Blues-Maschine
Du suchst nicht nach Hochglanz, sondern nach Geschichte? Diese Framus Camping aus dem Jahr 1956 ist das pure Gegenteil einer sterilen modernen Gitarre. Sie ist ein ehrliches Werkzeug für alle, die den trockenen, perkussiven Sound von Robert Johnson lieben
Warum diese Gitarre für Blueser perfekt ist:
Der Sound: Durch den kleinen Parlor-Korpus und die Bauweise liefert sie genau diesen ??boxy?? Klang mit wenig Sustain ?? ideal für Slide- und Bottle-Neck-Spieler... more

Really lovely original golden era Gibson ES 175 from 1956. Last year of the P90 pickups. Pretty good condition with some lacquer checking as to be expected and a couple of touched up chips. All original paint though. Couple of changes, neck pickup appears to be replacement. Still Gibson but from the 60??s. There??s an added selecter switch which is not connected now so it??s back to standard configuration.
Where this guitar excels is in playability. It??s superb. Has had a great set up and ... more

The Habs won their 2nd of 5 consecutive cups that season, a feat that will never be equalled. Authenticity guaranteed and comes with my own COA.

Beautiful Original Kluson single line set, complete with its original sockets and original screws. The set is very worn, lots of patina. Really nice for a 50s / 60s fendele restoration. I can also sell it without sockets and screws. Obviously the price changes. For the tuners I ask 590 euros, with sockets and screws, another 100 more. Really hard to find, especially the original sockets and screws. The set works perfectly, all the keys are straight. If you want, you can always polish it but I ... more
