This is a new old stock model from the previous model system Furch used. It features an all solid construction of Sitka Spruce top & Walnut back/sides. The cutaway Grand Auditorium body provides both comfort and volume. This is my new favourite acoustic in the shop so come and get it before I decide to keep it! Includes super padded Furch bag (the newer models don't include a bag anymore!).

This Zenith from Epiphone is virtually as new apart from a small amount of buckle-rash on the back. Includes excellent dedicated Zenith hard case!

Here is what Epiphone say...

'Epiphone’s first Masterbilt archtops quickly rose to popularity during the 1930s “Big Band” era and were renowned for their warm woody tone, wide tonal range and punchy volume. However, with the invention of the electric guitar pickup, archtop acoustic guitars quickly became equipped with magnetic amplification and were for the most part, forever  transformed into “electric” guitars. Until now… Epiphone, the leader in affordable professional archtop guitars, reinvents the archtop again by combining our original, time-tested designs with 21st century acoustic guitar electronics to bring you the new Masterbilt Century Collection™. The first collection of archtop “acoustic/electric” guitars designed to be played and amplified as true acoustic instruments. Just play one and you will immediately feel and hear the difference between today’s common “flat top” acoustic guitar and the unique voice of a Masterbilt Century. Plug one in and prepare to be amazed! Really. You have to hear it to believe it. Now with the eSonic™ HD preamp and Shadow NanoFlex™ HD Under-saddle pickup, you can plug in any Masterbilt Century archtop acoustic/electric into an amp or any PA and hear your guitar’s beautiful and dynamic true acoustic tone on any size stage. For flattop guitarists who have only played old plywood archtops, the sound of a Masterbilt Century guitars will be a revelation. Get ready for a totally new acoustic guitar experience!'

This well used players grade Musicmaster bass feels great! The serial number has been removed from the headstock but the card inside the neck pocket confirms it's 1977/78 build date. Other than the missing thumb-rest and a screw in the G-string tuning machine it's in good playable shape. These normally command higher prices in better condition so the price reflects this.

This one benefits from a recent set-up, electrical service and new nut.

This 15-year-old Classic Series '50s Tele has been well used in it's time with the scars to prove it (see photos) but it feels, looks and sounds great! The original single ply white pickguard has been replaced by a lovely 3-ply black one which (in my opinion) looks much nicer if a little less true to the original '50s aesthetics.

Here is what Fender said...

'Fender's Classic Series 50s Telecaster brings together the classic 50s style Telecaster with Fenders modern build quality and components. Constructed from an ash wood body with a maple neck and fingerboard, the 50s Telecaster produces the classic 'twang' sound, with bright characteristics that have a strong punch in the midrange. Few electric guitars shaped more styles of music in the '50s and '60s than the Telecaster, from James Burton to the Beatles, the Telecaster was at the heart of popular music. Featuring two single-coil Alnico pickups, a vintage Tele bridge and knurled chrome knobs, the Classic series Telecaster delivers vintage Fender sounds with the reliability that will keep you playing for years.'

Here is what Cordoba say...

'Embark on a musical adventure with the Mini, a fun travel-size nylon string guitar inspired by Coco, an all new film by Disney•Pixar. Perfectly sized for life's adventures (580mm or 22.8” scale length) and with a durable satin finish, the Mini retains the playability of a full size guitar without losing its impressively loud voice. Built with a spruce top and mahogany back and sides and in standard E tuning, the Mini's tone is bright and full. The beautiful laser-etched design is inspired by the guitars and Mexican heritage featured throughout the film. Comes with a Córdoba gig bag and guitar strap.'

Tenor size with cutaway. All mahogany with abalone rosette and satin Edgeburst finish, and preamp.

This 20-year-old Stingray is in great condition in the less common transparent red finish. Includes Hiscox hard case.

Here is what Music Man say about the current Stingray (*this example doesn't feature the mutes mentioned in this)...

'The Classic Stingray pays tribute to the original Music Man designs from the mid to late 1970's with added modern refinements. A string through body bridge, mute kit, small profile nickel frets and a curvy 7.5" radius neck are key specifications that harken back to the early days of Music Man production. A modern six bolt neck attachment and an easy access truss rod adjustment wheel ensure solid construction with no hassle adjustments. The classic tone remains true to the original with an ash body, 2 band EQ and a standard Music Man Alnico pickup.'

This 44-year-old Stratocaster has undergone a couple of changes in it's life including some additional circuitry that boosts the mids of the bridge / middle pickups & some potentially non-original pickups (middle is original). Overall it's a great Strat from a long time ago and if you can live with the non-original elements and the lack of the original hard case (does include a Gator one) then this is a chance to own an older model at a more reasonable price (most early-mid '70s Strats are £2.5k+).

Here is what Cordoba say...

'The 15CB is a hand-made concert ukulele built with exotic bocote woods that offer a well-rounded and rich tone that is as delightful as its distinct appearance. Stunning appointments like the 15CB's abalone rosette and cream binding set this ukulele apart from other models in this modest price range. Additional features include a subtle satin finish, silver tuners with pearl buttons, and premium Italian Aquila strings. Beginners and professionals alike will appreciate the 15CB's good looks and easy playability.'

Here is what Cordoba say...

'The 15 series is a perfect place to start on ukulele. All mahogany construction provides a full, rich sound and appointments like an abalone rosette and cream ABS body and fingerboard binding set these instruments apart from other models in its price range. Additional features include a sleek satin finish, silver tuners with pearl buttons, and premium Aquila strings.'

A rare sight the Blueshawk, I had never seen one until this came in. Weighs very little with such a small, semi-hollow body but despite how small it looks and feels it has the full 25.5'' scale normally associated with Fenders. Combine this light weight, full scale and multitude of sounds made available by the switching and you've got a super versatile guitar! Includes original padded Gibson case.

This American Standard from the early days of the newly established series from Fender is in good condition. The only thing we can spot is that at some point a different pickguard may have been on as there seems to be some addtional holes drilled (see photo).
