Ebony fretboard, bridge and tail piece, with ivoroid neck binding and black hardware. Custom wound PAF style pickup. Big warm tone. I doubt there are many, if any, lefty examples in existence, and this one is in nice condition, a few small dings here and there and some light play wear, electronics work great, with original hardshell case. Sadowsky sez: "Designed for lovers of the classic “EL FIVE,” (Gibson L-5) the LS-17’s appeal lies in its 17″ wide body and 25 1/2″ scale length giving the player a big, warm sound. The thinner 2 3/4″ body makes the guitar much more comfortable to play and the 5-ply maple laminate construction helps reduce feedback. Ebony fretboard and one piece maple neck. The LS-17 is a roadworthy instrument, optimized for amplified playing. The Sadowsky LS-17. A jazz standard … redefined." -
John Mayer has been playing Martin guitars for decades now, and his signature OMJM model is my current pick for an OM as comfortable on the couch as it is on stage. An Englemann spruce top with scalloped X bracing over East Indian rosewood back and sides gives the guitar a lively balanced tone, with herringbone trim, antique toner and and abalone rosette, plus diamond and square inlays with John's signature making for an elegant yet understated appearance. Comfortable low profile neck carve with a volute, drop-in saddle, butterbean tuners, and John's choice of a simple Fishman Gold Plus Natural I pickup allows your dynamics and picking technique to control the output. The guitar sounds great plugged in. Nicely embroidered hardshell case completes the package. Martin says: "In light of his ever-expanding reputation and fan base, Martin collaborated with John Mayer on the creation of a second namesake guitar, one with many of the same attributes as his first OM-28JM Limited Edition, but one that would be more affordable and more widely available."

The 1929-00 is probably my favorite Santa Cruz guitar ... small bodied and comfortable on the couch, lighter than a feather, simple elegant aesthetics and a warm mahogany voice. Here's a rare opportunity to get yours.A few years ago, Santa Cruz changed its business model to all custom guitar builds, an innovative strategy that allowed the buyer to choose a model then customize woods, finishes, inlays, tuners, etc. to their heart's content, at a single price. Including everything at one price meant, naturally, a higher price. For their 50th anniversary, Santa Cruz has "reissued" some of their favorite guitars in their original specifications, at a very attractive price and substantial savings.
Welcomed internationally as both timely and timeless, the 1929-00 has received sparkling reviews from the most prestigious publications in France, Germany, UK and the US. This instrument’s design pays homage to the simple and elegant instruments made for players enduring the Great Depression of 1929. Vintage inspired appointments include scalloped bracing, a period correct script style logo done tastefully in Ivoroid and beautifully executed Ebony pyramid bridge, bridge pins, tuner buttons, head-plate and fretboard. The rosette is an exercise in austere elegance with a rich tortoise ring nestled in a vintage ivoroid border. Ameritage case.

Here is a brand new Collings 470 JL Julian Lage signature model, in a lightly aged antiqued sunburst finish. The guitar is a true hollowbody with trestle block construction, with a thin nitrocellulose lacquer hand-rubbed to a gently worn patina (no dings or dents). Pickups are Ron Ellis Ellisonic, and a Bigsby vibrato completes the vintage vibe. Marvelous instrument. Collings sez: "The success of the Collings OM1 JL combined with Julian Lage’s love of electric guitars meant a second Collings-Julian collaboration was inevitable. But following such a highly praised signature model with yet another meant leaving nothing on the table. From its organic beginnings, the process envisioned by both parties was something designed and built from the sound up. The Collings 470 JL is the result of years-long conversations, engineering, testing, tweaking, playing, and listening. And then doing it all over again until it was right. From first sketches through plugging in the final prototypes, every aspect of this model inside and out is the result of a unique approach, technique, and style - both from the builder’s and player’s point of view - culminating in a one-of-a-kind electric guitar experience. In collaboration with our friend Julian Lage, we proudly present the Collings 470 JL." Terrific guitar. Ameritage style hardshell case.

Nobody makes a more powerful dread than Collings does. I'll let Collings describe it:
"The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is certainly not the only company to build them, we bring a new tonal clarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large, deep-bodied guitar. Although its bass response makes the dreadnought ideal for vocal accompaniment, Collings versions are also often employed by bluegrass flatpickers who must compete with inherently louder instruments such as banjos and fiddles. The wide range of woods and neck sizes offered allow dreadnought fans to find a Collings model ideally suited to their playing style and tonal preference." -

I haven't had the good fortune to play an 88-year-old D-18 in person, but this new Martin Authentic 1937 VTS D-18 is the next best thing, and it is a heck of a dread. Sounds amazing. I also stock the aged version, this one is non-aged (cosmetically). Martin says: "1937 was an excellent year for guitars, with a perfect storm of craftsmanship, innovation, and materials. This Authentic Series replication of a 1937 D-18 stays true to the original with hide glue construction and historically accurate detailing. This guitar features genuine mahogany back and sides and an Adirondack spruce top, and it includes an Authentic circa 1937 bracing pattern. Plus, it adds the Vintage Tone System® (VTS) that ages the wood to replicate the sound of a vintage Martin. Martin's craftspeople can recreate the pleasing visual aesthetics of a vintage guitar and reproduce the particular tones previously reserved for vintage instruments. Now Martin has reintroduced a more accurate body profile based on dreadnought shapes from the early Golden Era of Martin's history. The result is a tactile, visual, and auditory experience that will transport you all the way back to the 1930s. And we know you’re going to like it there."

Scalloped Adirondack spruce bracing, a bolt-on mortise and tenon neck, 2 7/32 bridge spacing, Indian rosewood fingerboard and bridge, open pore sating nitrocellulose finish, bone nut and saddle and Golden Age relic brass tuners.

It has a comfortable 25” scale and an equally comfy C-shape neck.” ”Overall, it has a warm and dry voice, with an impressive midrange response. It takes equally well to being strummed with a pick or fingerpicked, in standard or open tunings, and it has a generous amount of headroom and projection.” — Acoustic Guitar, July/Aug 2019” Iris says: "This mid-thirties style guitar, with its short scale, is a wonderful complement to our line of small bodied Iris."
