JUST IN!! 1952 Fender Telecaster Butterscotch Blonde: The black guard Fender Telecaster from '52 is easily one of the most iconic electric guitars in the history of music. Their sound is unique and easily identifiable, melding seamlessly into just about any musical situation from beautifully shimmering and sparkly clean to raunchy raucous rock and roll. They record wonderfully and fit into the mix just right. This one here is a very special instrument. Both the neck and body have been signed and dated by Tadeo Gomez who built guitars for Fender from the late-40s up until about 1957. The neck is dated 2-2-52 and the body dates to 9-9-52. His work continues to be among the most sought after and his reputation for hand-crafting some of the best necks is legendary. It's certainly evident here as the profile is a very comfortable soft "V" that just begs to be played. The body is a very nice set of lightweight ash and the guitar weighs in at a mere 7.4 lbs on our scale. The story behind this amazing guitar is that a prominent vintage guitar dealer up in Eugene, Oregon acquired this in an unfinished state. Rather than simply giving it a standard new finish he contacted Jay Black, formerly of Fender's Custom Shop and more recently working with John Suhr. They decided it best to give the instrument a relic treatment, not only to keep the instrument's "soul" in tact but also to allow the finely aged tonewoods to keep their voice and resonance. The pickups were then sent to J.M. Rolph for rewinding. He's come to be known as the "pickup maker to the stars" and when it comes to recreating authentic sounding vintage pickups his work is simply second to none. The tone, the feel, the look; all that killer vibe is there! We're all aware of how valuable these instruments have become so this is an opportunity to obtain a vintage Fender Tele at an incredibly affordable price. With newer Fender thermometer tweed case. Buffalo Bros price: $15,000 Stock #UGB30045. PHOTOS
JUST IN!! 1964 Fender Jaguar 3-Tone Sunburst: Every now and then an instrument comes our way that you just wish it could tell you what its experiences have been, as is the case with this little beauty. Fortunately we were given a bit of the guitar's background when we acquired it. What we have here is a one-owner instrument, meaning that all the patina and character are from one person who played it day in and day out. This '64 Fender Jaguar (neck date stamp 1-APR-64) was purchased brand new in the great 49th State of Alaska along with a companion Princeton amp by the owner's mother. In fact, she also purchased another Jaguar and Princeton set for the owner's girlfriend who was his counterpart in a young, budding country music act. Unfortunately the young couple eventually parted ways and the other guitar and amps also went their separate ways. Well at least this guitar managed to remain unaltered over the last 45 years. All the aging is from normal, honest use and there's just so much soul and vibe to this that you can just feel it emanating from the guitar. Cool just doesn't do this one justice! With original hard shell case. Buffalo Bros price: $2850 Stock #UGB30063. PHOTO
Circa 1984 Fender Maestro Alex Gregory 7-String Prototype Blonde With Matching Headstock: (EXC) In the late-'80s, Fender started it's signature model line with 3 artists; Eric Clapton, Yngwie J. Malmsteen and Maestro Alex Gregory....yes, that's right...MAESTRO Alex Gregory. This was released as the first 7-string rock-and-roll solidbody electric and was designed to accommodate a high "A" string to facilitate the upper register notes, unlike the previous 7-string guitars which featured an added low "B" for walking bass lines. This is the prototype for the the Maestro Alex Gregory signature model and includes extra tortoise pickguard (signed by the artist), copies of the original blueprints, patents and documentation of the history of the model. It also comes with an extra neck blank from the Fender factory, as it's common practice to have backup parts in case something should happen during the production of the instrument. This is THE ONLY prototype known to be in existence and is an important piece in the history of Fender Musical Instruments. With tweed hard shell case. SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY Stock #UGC27738. photo

New! Fender Andy Summers Tribute Telecaster - By Senior Master Builder Yuriy Shishkov -
Three Tone Sunburst ~~ LIMITED EDITION OF 250 WORLDWIDE ~~: Andy Summers was just out of college in Southern California in the early 1970s when one of his guitar students offered to sell him a beat-up 1961 Fender Telecaster that had obviously been modified by a previous owner. Summers bought the guitar for $200, and you and the whole world know the rest. Back in London a few years later, he joined a noisy so-called punk outfit called the Police that rose to become the biggest band in the world, thanks in no small part to the deftly innovative and influential sounds Summers conjured from that beat-up Telecaster. Hit after hit was recorded and performed on it—”Roxanne,” “So Lonely,” “Walking On the Moon,” the breathtaking “Message In a Bottle,” “Don’t Stand So Close to Me,” “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic,” “Every Breath You Take,” “Wrapped Around Your Finger,” “Synchronicity II” and “King of Pain.” Now, in 2007, Fender couldn’t be more proud and excited to unveil a very special 250-instrument Limited Edition run of the Fender Custom Shop Andy Summers Tribute Telecaster as part of the Fender Custom Shop’s legendary Tribute Series. It’s a note-perfect replica of the 1961 Tele that Summers used to help propel the Police to untold heights of worldwide pop superstardom. Andy played number one of the 250 replicas when the Police once again electrified the music world by reuniting on Feb. 11, 2007 to open the 49th annual Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles. Even more exciting, Summers is playing the replica during the momentous 2007 30th anniversary worldwide Police reunion tour, one of the most hoped-for and eagerly awaited events in pop music history. The thrilling musical tour features one of rock’s most innovative guitarists playing a spot-on replica of one rock’s most distinctive guitars. With custom flight case, Police box set, DVD and autographed book. (Manufacturer Suggested Retail List Price $15,000) SPECIAL PRICING! Stock #NGB25623.
