Read on if you are interested: I’m thinning out my collection of mid to (low) high end vintage electric guitars and I will be posting a couple at a time over the next while. Nothing from the Wholly Grail list in the over 10K category. For now, I won’t be shipping ( you can ask) and limited intelligent questions will be answered to the best of my ability. I have novice skill as a musician ( I suck) and my instrument knowledge is basic, but that didn’t stop me from collecting some excellent guitars. I consider them art as much as an instrument Best to do a bit of homework on the instrument, but almost all were bought from reputable retail stores and were checked and set up professionally within the last 2 years, mainly bought in the U.S.A ( Mike and Mikes Guitar Bar in Seattle, Wa. U.S.A.) and some from Quebec ( Direct music online). . Upon request I will provide an in depth description that was posted in the original sale that will educate and amaze you. A couple I bought locally. They have been stored in a humidified environment in the drier months, mostly displayed, played lightly, and never out of my alarmed/guard dog home. All have cases. My prices reflect my investment and are quite firm. Importing from the U.S.A. is expensive with our lame dollar, shipping, taxes and duty and broker fees. No tours, jams, groups, cheap skates, grinders, show offs, Clowns or trades. A test ride is acceptable upon appointment, but don’t waste my time and humiliate me with your skills. A decent amp will be available to plug into. More and better pictures can be emailed. If you have something you are looking for, ask, as I may have one. Fender, Gibson, Rickenbacker, Kay, Silvertone, Gretsch, Duesenberg, Danelectro ( amp in case 1960’s), Kauer ( Thunderbird), Harmony. The best way to contact me is through KIJIJI that goes to my email nsuser@shaw.ca or email me direct. My name is Bob. I have joined the new age and use a cell phone on occasion and if I see a use for it in a meeting or a prospective deal, I will share my number for a text or phone call. I prefer my privacy and don’t carry my cell phone all the time. My land line is available by chance and leave a message if I don’t pick up. Bottom line is I’m not desperate to sell these, just thinning the herd as although displayed, I can’t enjoy them all so I’d rather they be seen and used by someone else. Part of the fun was the search and the deal.
