Absolutely stunning, and it won’t be here long! Every PRS instrument we get in is snapped up almost immediately, so we’re not expecting this rare beauty to last long at all. McCarty models are about the most eagerly sought PRS models of all, and other than a new nut, is all original, including its original PRS hard-shell case, with the original paperwork and adjustment tools included. There’s very little play wear, and the guitar is finished in the super-rare Faded Transparent Raspberry/Purple! Like those legendary used cars that were owned "by a little old lady from Pasaden...

If you're after a left-handed LP-style guitar, then look no further - this has to be the best value, professional quality LP-style instrument available in Australia. Matched Custom 60 Alnico-V humbuckers provide the bite of an SG and the warmth of a Les Paul, making the Deluxe a great rock axe, and an even better blues axe. And if you like to play fast, Hagstrom’s famous H-Expander truss-rod allows for some of the thinnest necks in the business – with wickedly low action – necks that’ve earned the reputation of “fastest neck on the planet.” Every Hagstrom neck is a guitarist’s dre...

This rare Montego Black model American Deluxe Jazz Bass is a 2006 left-handed model, in Near Mint condition. Aside from two small finish chips at the neck pocket, which have been professionally repaired, this magnificent American Deluxe model is otherwise brand new, and complete with its original Fender hard shell roadcase. (Quality Control at Fender believe the chips were caused by lubricating grease accidentally getting onto the timber, right before the body went into the paint booth) We spent around 12 hours filling, sanding and paint-matching the two small chips, and both ar...

The last few ukes that we’ve listed here have mostly been of the plastic fretboard variety, but this one is a major step up – a real fretboard, brass frets, and a bone nut! Made in Chicago, around 1955/56, by Kay Instruments, who reigned supreme as America’s largest uke manufacturer for almost fifty years, these fantastic instruments were all constructed from solid, (non-veneer) Hickory and/or Birch, and after more than half a century of ageing, the tone is absolutely to die for! Freshly checked over and fitted with a new set of strings, (D’Addario black nylon concert strings), ...

Another incredible Maple body early Nitefly, this one in stunning Transparent Red, (looks Cherry in the pics, but is more like Claret), is in Excellent+ condition. You’ll have to look really close to spot the signs of playwear, which is almost entirely confined to the scratchplate and soft-touch knobs. Featuring the dynamic combination of DiMArzio custom-wound S-S-H magnetic pickups, plus a passive Fishman piezo pickup built into the bridge, there’s not a lot of sounds that can’t be wrung out of this fantastic instrument. (Please note that you will need a split ¼” TRS stereo cab...

Anyone familiar with Harmony products will immediately recognize the large music note motif, but this is the first we’ve ever seen on one of their ukes. The ring of notes circling the soundhole is also a first. Showing only the very lightest of playwear, this is another of the Birch body/plastic fretboard models that we just can’t seem to get enough of – they sell as soon as we get them in – however this time it has a White board, similar to the famous Macaferri TV models. (It’s also similar to some of the famous Roy Smeck models, many of which were Harmony produced) A real b...

Bone nut & factory Bigsby! This special pro model of the limited edition Squier Telecaster was produced for a showcase event at a guitar show in the US a couple of years ago, for use by the event's various company endorsed players. About 10 or 12 were made in total, and this one seems to have barely been touched - maybe handled a few times by event staff, but certainly unplayed. Each of these guitar show instruments had a bone nut added to the nicely grained Rosewood board, which is a wider, 'pro-friendly', radius, (around 11?), than that of the production model, (9.5'). The...

It’s our favorite time of year – when professional musicians decide, (or sometimes their partners decide for them), that it's time for a thinning out of the collection. There’s some lovely instruments coming in at the moment, many of them in absolutely stunning condition. The re-issue '69 Competition Mustang was available in Lake Placid Blue for less than twelve months, and as one of Fender’s all-time most popular colors, is now virtually impossible to find. Finding one in this condition is even more unlikely, as these awesome guitars were not easily obtainable outside Japan. If...

Incredibly rare – most likely a prototype, absolutely the only one in Australia – probably the world! Hand built in New York City, just as four long-haired lads from Liverpool were in the process of becoming the biggest band in the world. The Strad-O-Lin company of New York was famous in the 1930s and 40s for their mandolins. They were never known to have produced guitars, (although under later ownership, the name was attached to a series of Japanese imports). Several New York instrument dealers, familiar with the Strad-O-Lin factory at the time, are certain that guitars were neve...

First appearing in the 1962 Sears catalogue – priced at US$67.95 – this `66 model Silvertone “Amp-In-Case” set, (guitar with amp in case, Model 1448), is quite likely the cleanest, the neatest, the best example for sale, anywhere in the world! (With not a mark on the original scratchplate, we’re pretty sure it's never been played) This is the 18-fret shorter scale, (23½”), single pickup model, and it really is in stunning collector’s condition. Other than a couple of marks where the edges have been touching the case for 40-odd years, (see photo # 4), the original cloth binding ...

Probably the best electric 12-strings being made today – specially if you’re after that real sixties British sound, made famous by Rolling Stones guitarist, Brain Jones. Phantom Guitar Works' ultimate sixties 12-string corrects all of the annoying imperfections of the Vox originals – they’re perfectly balanced, with a neck that’s great to play, the re-issue Kent Armstrong-style pickups do what they’re meant to do… in other words, these guitars actually play and sound way better than the originals – for less than half what you’d have to pay for a sixties model. Phantom have that r...

Absolutely impossible to find in Australia, the limited edition Splatter Strats were made in 2003 only, and began climbing in price the minute production ended – especially outside the US. Designed in Scottsdale, Arizona, built at Fender’s Ensenada plant, no two Splatter Strats are the same – every one features a unique paint job. Many people keep their Splatter Strat hanging on the wall – art that you can play! This one features beautiful Blue, White, Grey and Purple tones, and is even more stunning in person than it is in the photos. It’s been played, but you really can’t spo...

The amazing BASF paint that changes color under different lighting angles, the rare “flip-flop” Teal Blue model Les Paul Studio was officially available in Australia, but you’ll be hard-pressed to find anyone who managed to get their hands on one – scarcer than hen’s teeth! This deluxe Gibson color option, (which shifts from Teal to Turquoise under lights), was discontinued in 2005, and very, very few used models are making it onto the market – everyone is hanging on to them. This superb guitar came out of Gibson’s Nashville plant, in May of 2003, and it’s pure Gibson class, all t...

Introduced as part of Harmony’s colorful 1955 “Caribbean Series”, the H1220 Catalina is one of the most striking acoustic instruments you’ll ever come across. Dave Grohl owns one in (non-original) Royal Blue & Canary Yellow. The other official color combination was 2-tone Blue, but Harmony also produced a very small number in Black-and-White. This big-bodied acoustic is auditorium-size, (15¾” / 40cm across the lower bout), however, using all Birch construction for the body, the usual boominess of similar instruments is greatly moderated, giving a lighter, sweeter sound than you w...
