                precision bass     

                     1973

Just in this great P bass from the early 70's, as you can see by the wear this is a real workhorse, has done it's fair share of gig's over the years, we bought this from a guy who made it out of New Orleans just before the cyclone/hurricane hit the place, ironically he was going to take only one bass on the road but took this one as well and now we have it, it's has a new pot circa 89' ,new pickup covers and screws. The tone and the playability is as one would expect from such a desirable old bass....the finish of course was sunburst but over the years it has slowly worn off having just 1/2 left and the rest is a natural finish now, the rosewood board is in great condition as well as the frets have plenty of meat on them and it has been refretted over it's life...(tuners are reverse wind) it has extra screw holes in the pickguard for a extra thumb rest (missing) and there are no chrome covers, the bridge is a soft radius with the grooved saddles typical of a late 60's...the case is a bit beat up but all there...so if your looking for a P bass that has the vibe don't go past this one...Oh did I mention how light it is...!! we'll it's really nice and light and this one you could play all night...would also suit a girl player since it's 'light'....

              LES PAUL CUSTOM

                       1974

This beauty has just arrived, and that silky smooth ebony neck is a pleasure to play, she is totally white faded to a nice yellow and smells like it's just come out of club from the swamps of Louisiana!!..the back of the neck shows lots of wear from this player guitar and the body shows the odd ding here and there which is to be expected from a players guitar, the tuners were off at one time but now the originals are back on leaving a slight ferel implant on the headstock but only very slightly visible, during transport the tip of the 3 way was damages so we've put a new one on now, the 4 knobs for vol/tone etc are old ones but not original as they would be the gold type, but easy to replace should you wish to, pots and pickups date from 1974 'T' tops of course, overall a great looking Les Paul and not that heavy as we have come to expect from the new ones, comes with it's beat up original case v.g.c. +++ SOLD TO GARY FROM ADELAIDE

A very nice archtop/jazzbox from the late 50's, blonde one's are sort of hard to find especially in this condition, the pickguard shows that a plug that at one stage was put there and remains today (remnants from a pickup?) but now it's purely acoustic, on the back on the guitar there are a couple of light stains which probably are from a strap that might have been left in the case many years ago, the top is multibound as well as the back, the neck is 3 piece, with a rosewood board and dot inlays, has the compensator tailpiece, original tuners, overall in great shape, the neck is the old style 'clubby' but this is to be expected from a guitar with no truss rod, a great old time sounding jazz machine...comes in a non original hard case
