As many know, I am a huge fan of 1960s Fender Jaguars (I currently have 8 in the shop!) but this is definitely the nicest example I have come across in my search. It came in from a small shop out west, who recently acquired it from the original owner. The original owner played it, but took fantastic care of it and kept lots of case candy with it. It even has the instructions for the original polishing cloth, and it comes with some Fender polish as well (not recommended that you actually use it). I was blown away when I opened the case and saw the degree of case candy it had, truly the full package. Includes original bridge cover, tremolo arm, Jaguar manual, strap, polishing cloth with instructions, and cable!

I come across quite a few Fender Jaguars in my search, but it is not often I get the chance to buy one that is such a full package like this! This one was made in 1963, and remains 100% original. It comes with so much case candy, including the instructions for the original polishing cloth which I had never seen. Even the chrome on the outside of the case has almost no wear or rust. Such a great example!

Just in!! Thrilled to offer this 1960 ES-335 for sale for the first time since the late 1960’s. Truly an incredible guitar, with a few modifications that keep the price down. It had a minor headstock repair at some point in the 1970’s, the break didn’t go all the way through and the repair was done well. The tuners were replaced with a drop in replacement. The pickguard, truss rod cover, and 2 k***s were replaced with aged Mojoaxe parts. Both PAFs are original, although the covers were off at one point. Such a fantastic guitar, the PAFs sound so good!

Just in is this 1963 Fender Jaguar in a wild banana yellow refinish. It is definitely not the best refin I have ever seen, but it is very cool. It has a great chunky neck profile, the neck dates to November of ‘63. The original flat pole piece pickups sound fantastic. It comes with the original strap and original hardshell case as well. It is original except for the pickup and mute foam, and the volume k**b.

Just in from the original owner in Amesbury Massachusetts is this stunning 1971 Gibson SG Standard! It is all original, although the bridge pickup does need to be rewound (I will get that sorted before it becomes available). The original owner was mainly an acoustic player so it survived the last 50+ years with very little play wear or fade on its cherry finish. Such a great example and i’m thrilled to have it! Available soon

So excited to finally share this one. A few weeks ago I flew out to Nashville and drove to Mountain Home, Arkansas to pick up this 1967 Gibson ES-330 in factory black finish. The finish is 100% original with no touchup or overspray, and there are no cracks, breaks, or repairs. I have known about this guitar for a while and was thrilled to be able to pick it up. I bought it from the second owner who bought it from the family of the original owner after he passed away 20 years ago.

The only non-original part is the tone k**b which was replaced with a real period correct vintage k**b. The original k**b had cracked is in the case. The case is also from period correct from the mid-late 60s but didn’t come with the guitar. (Shout out to .numbers and for helping me land the case)

I love vintage Fender and Gibson guitars in black, and the color looks amazing on the 330. The combination of black finish and pickguard is incredible.

I am in Dover, New Hampshire to pick up this 1963 Gibson ES-330! It was recently found in a Massachusetts basement by an estate cleaning company and was sold to a local musician who sold it to me! It is a pretty untouched example, it never even had a second strap button added as was common. The original sunburst finish and nickel hardware are in pretty clean condition and look fantastic. I’m super happy to offer it, available soon!

I am in New York City to pick up this 1964 Fender Jaguar in Candy Apple Red from the second owner who has had it since 1980! It is a killer Pre-CBS example, and looks fantastic with the Candy Apple Red finish and mint pickguard. It is 99% original with the exception of the volume pot, and nut. The original volume pot was included, and will likely get swapped back in before the guitar becomes available. It has an A width nut.

So excited to have picked up this unbelievably clean 1965 Fender Jaguar in custom color Black from the original owner today! I drove down to Cape Cod to pick it up. He bought it in 1965 at 15, played it for 5 years in a band and then has kept it in the case every sense. It is 100% original, although the bridge pickup likely needs to be rewound. Such an incredible piece!!!

At 11am I got a call from the original owner about his 1965 Fender Jaguar, and by 5pm I was in Falmouth Mass to pick it up! This is easily the cleanest vintage guitar I have ever had, I am so excited about it. The original owner purchased it in Pennsylvania when he was 15, played it for about 5 years and then switched to acoustic. Such an amazing example, and in custom color black. Even has the original polish cloth, and a catalogue from 1965!
