1960's Gretsch Electromatic Lapsteel

Vintage Gretsch Lapsteel

$300 (marked down from $400 a few weeks ago)

 A nice little sixties lapsteel.  I'm amazed this wasn't snapped up already.  I guess the alt-country craze is slowing down.  This would be in my hands by now if  a) I had the money and b) I didn't just buy a Japanese Guyatone steel for $100 just last month (I'll be posting that here soon enough.)

Beautiful Pearloid body -- I believe these were made for Gretsch by Supro.  This guy is in great, nay stellar shape and comes with an (original?) case.  A great deal considering a new Chinese-made Electromatic Steel will make you $350 + tax lighter, how can you go wrong?

Hofner 456 Archtop Acoustic

Mmmm pearloid....  Look at this beauty, made in Bavaria post-WII - early 1960's.  I played one of these at a shop in town a few years ago, and it was real nice, but a few hundred more than I was willing to spend at the time.  

Midrange archtop for the time period with a maple body and bound rosewood fretboard.  Pearloid headstock, fret markers and "mother of pearl-esque" pick guard.  An original pick guard is always nice on a 50 year old guitar.  Non-original case, but hey you're getting a case so don't complain.

This one is probably early 60's with the adjustable truss rod.  You could sometimes get these pre-installed with pickups.

Decent price on this, its been up for a few weeks, but its about an hour out of the city.  Otherwise I think this could go for as much as $700-800.

Eko Studio L Acoustic Guitar

$150

Eko Italian made guitar.  Studio L parlour size.  Not a bad price for a 1960's parlour acoustic.  These were heavy guitars for their size.  Bolt on neck, mahogany back, sides and neck. With a spruce top.  I'm more partial to Eko Ranger, with its wicked bat wing pick-guard.
