1925 Gibson L-1  –  £1999

1925 Gibson L-1 – £1999

NEW ARRIVAL  This guitar is a real beauty, and in amazing condition for a 100 year old guitar. It's a rare example of an arch top guitar with a central sound hole. Tonally it's voiced for blues and jazz - this is the predecessor to the flat top L-1 that Robert Johnson...

1964 Gibson Country Western  –  £3999

1964 Gibson Country Western – £3999

NEW ARRIVAL  This is a great example of a 60’s Country Western and, unlike later 60’s examples, the neck is quite full feeling. This gives the guitar an altogether richer sound with greater sustain, but still has that classic mellow Gibson vibe. Visually the Spruce...

1935 Gibson L-00  –  £4499

1935 Gibson L-00 – £4499

NEW ARRIVAL  The L-00 is probably Gibson’s most desirable pre war acoustic, and they’re becoming more difficult to find. This is an old warhorse of a guitar, and has the scars to prove it – although there are no top or back cracks, there are bullet entry and exit...

1965 Gibson LG1 – £2399

1965 Gibson LG1 – £2399

NEW ARRIVAL  This 1965 LG1 is a great example of one of the most popular ladder braced Gibsons, with authentic tone that no modern guitar can come close to. Visually it’s just what you’d want from a vintage Gibson, with an unmistakable dark tobacco sunburst, and...

1954 Gibson TG-50 Tenor Guitar  –  £1599

1954 Gibson TG-50 Tenor Guitar – £1599

NEW ARRIVAL  Tenor guitars have always made me nervous - I guess I’ve associated them with banjos and mandolins, which I don’t play. But picking up a 50’s Gibson archtop (which I’m very familiar with) with a skinny neck and 4 strings (tuned to G D A E) is great fun....

1974 Gibson J50 Deluxe – £1599

1974 Gibson J50 Deluxe – £1599

NEW ARRIVAL  With prices of 60’s J50’s becoming very expensive, early to mid 70’s examples have become the more affordable way of getting a vintage Gibson dreadnought tone. It’s a classic example of the ‘workhorse’ guitar, and one of Gibson’s most iconic models. The...

SOLD  Introduced in 1902, the L-3 was Gibson's finest guitar offering until the L-4 arrived ten years later. The L-3 features a 13 1/2” body, carved Spruce top and Birch back, round soundhole, and lavish trimmings. The L-3 went through several cosmetic changes, and...

1949 Gibson LG2

1949 Gibson LG2

SOLD  The LG2 was made from 1942 - 1962, possibly the most desirable small bodied post war Gibson model available. It’s a 00 size guitar with X bracing, making the guitar extremely resonant - a surprisingly big sound for a small bodied guitar. It’s rare to find such...

2010 Gibson Hummingbird  –  £2499

2010 Gibson Hummingbird – £2499

NEW ARRIVAL  You shouldn’t buy a guitar based just on it’s looks, but with a Hummingbird you may be forgiven. There’s a reason why it remains one of the most desirable models in Gibson’s illustrious history. This 2010 model looks great, plays great and sounds great....
