The Gibson Guitar Corporation of today started as Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co. in 1902. Orville Gibson had radically changed the mandolin, making it more streamlined, easier to mass produce and by far better sounding than the mandolins of that time. During the 1920's Gibson sought to reproduce some of his innovations with the mandolin into archtop guitars. In 1922 the Gibson L5 was released. The original L5's were all acoustic guitars and featured an f hole in the upper sound board to help project sound. Pick-ups were not added to this guitar until 1951 when Gibson released the L5CES. In 1958 the humbucker pickup ... Read Full Story

Because of the amount of “bogus” PAF (Patent Applied For) Gibson humbucker pickups out there, I was asked to create this web page (thanks to GW Dean and BurstMeUp for information and pictures). This web page includes information on the pickups themselves *and* their plastic mounting rings. The originality of the pickups and their mounting rings are both important factors in the integrity of a vintage Gibson guitar. All of these parts can be found on the Vintage Guitar Zone website. There are some basic facts that should be known about these first-generation humbucking pickups. First PAF pickups came about in 1956 on Gibson ... Read Full Story

Here are the search results for the guitar based keyword gretsch electromatic . If the query did not return guitar items that you have an interest in, may I suggest adjusting the search phrases. If you only get hardly any guitars, consider modifying your search term. For instance, if you were trying to find a 1980 Ibanez hollowbody but found no results, try altering your search terms or searching on the brand name only. If the search located too many results, try searching again using more specific search term(s).

  As with my peers concerning the state of todays guitar and vintage guitar market I will add in my own opinion for what it is worth.(no pun intended ). What I see is a halt to the sudden and rapid rise in prices that mint vintage guitars will bring in, such as those we have seen in the last 3 to 4 years and a slow down or market correction,which we are seeing today, not that these guitars are worth any less  but rather a more informed market and a hesitance on buyers reluctant to make larger purchase as thy have in the ...

Then, as evidence, Meyer went on to spin tales of a 1959 Fender Sunburst Stratocaster ($250 new) now bringing $17,000. And Eric Clapton’s favorite Strat from [...]
