Gibson

Model

L-10

Finish

Sunburst

Year

1936

USA


1936 Gibson L-10. Really nice overall. Has had a neck reset and the sides were cracked as a result on either side of the neck. They where expertly and very well repaired and it is 100% stabilized. 

Repairs have been over sprayed with nitro just enough to cover (more photos to follow).

Saddle has been replaced but old original Brazilian saddle will be included. The bridge foot is the original BR one. 

Really nice defined vintage tone with great projection. Neck angle is perfect. A tuner or 2 have been replaced with period Grovers.

Original Lifton case.

Nixon Madagascar Rosewood OOO 12-fret

$4,995.00

Exceptional NEW custom hand crafted Nixon OOO 12-fret guitar.


Here is what the builder had to say about this guitar: 

"This is a very close copy of a 1930’s Martin 000, built from plans drawn by Martin expert Don McRostie. The only real differences are that it has an adjustable truss rod, and uses individual tuners rather than 3 on a plate. The peg head slots are also slightly wider (ever try changing strings on a vintage Martin slot head?). Body is Madagascar rosewood. [This exquisite tone wood has been in Luthier Jon Nixon’s stash for over 30 years]. Top is OLD GROWTH Adirondack spruce, acquired directly for luthier Ted Williams before his untimely passing. This has BAR FRETS, an authentic feature that even the Martin Custom shop can’t provide. Fingerboard and bridge are ebony Celluloid binding and trim Honduran mahogany neck Kluson Prestige 18/1 tuners Hide glue throughout Set dovetail neck High gloss nitro finish Bone nut and saddle Celluloid bridge pins 1 3/4 nut, 2 1/8 at 12 fret  

One has to play this to appreciate what it is capable of. Sweet, articulate, with a wide dynamic range. A finger pickers delight, but can keep up with a D28 if flatpicked. The bar frets provide a unique tactile connection with the instruments vibrations. This is a unique, one of a kind instrument." 

I don't believe I can add much to this as the builder's description and details are complete and succinct. With a hard shell case.

2021 Eastman T185MX Classic

$2,175.00

Brand New T185MX .

While this guitar is still considered A stock, I would call it A- stock because there is a mineral mark which is part of the natural grain of the wood as shown so I am discounting it. 

So if you don't mind a tiny bit of character, you can save some money on a killer, fully carved guitar with full warranty and certificate.

2022 Larrivee D-40 Koa & Moon Spruce Special Limited Edition

$2,989.00

NEW D-40 Limted Edition.

Koa Back and sides, moon spruce top, rosewood binding and torch head plate inlay.


Koa Back and sides, moon spruce top, rosewood binding and torch head plate inlay,

outstanding dreadnought guitar with superb tone and big thump in the bass. It would be a superlative small combo axe because the sound is so focused with really strong fundamentals. Very resonant and insistent voice.

This guitar has a light colored natural character mark on the back as shown in the photos which tend to make it appear much louder than it is. 

My rep sent me this: 

"Matt Larrivee says that is in the wood" and that it is part of the grain pattern.

It is completely cosmetic and fairly subdued in person but I am drawing attention to it all the same.

It won't effect the "new guitar" status and it will carry with it a full factory warranty.

I am taking offers as a concession.

With Larrivee HS case.


Very resonant and insistent voice.
