Looking for a Vintage guitar or amp? Trying to find a fair selling price for your vintage guitar? Just enjoy looking at cool, funky, unusual guitars? Well this is the blog for you.
I AM NOT SELLING THESE ITEMS and you cannot contact sellers via the comments section of this blog. You must click thru to the original Craigslist postings. Do not post comments here asking to buy the item!
LOOK AT THE DATE ON THE POSTING! Most of these items are no longer for sale. - Jim C.
This seller is offering a nice looking Vintage 1965 or so Airline Resoglas electric. These are fairly small guitars - they have about a 24" or so scale but they feel small in the hands so they are great if you on't like a big guitar. I often see versions of this model with "shrunken binding" - the white plastic between the fiberglass - but this one appears to be okay, at least in the pictures.
$495 is below market for this guitar if it is i good working shape. These usually go for a couple hundred more. - JC
Vintage 60's Airline (made by Valco) Resoglass electric guitar.
Excellent condition for it's age. 3/4 short scale, straight neck, low action, plays nice 2 pickups, everything works, all original no mods, no issues. Missing Airline logo on headstock. Replacements available on Ebay.

This seller is offering a beautiful all original (hopefully) 1957 Gibson ES-125TD. These were sort of budget level guitars at the time and 1957 was the first year for the 2-pickup version of this guitar so it is fairly rare. Gibson records indicate that only 151 of this model were shipped in 1957.
All in all that makes this a pretty darn good opportunity to own a Vintage guitar from the "Golden Age" of American electrics. The "Florentine cutaway version of this guitar (ES-125TC) is more popular with players and collectors alike so it commands a higher price - but it is actually less rare than this model.
All original. Model ES125 TD nice condition. Thinbody style. Two P90 'dogear' pickups. Pots and switch clean. Original alligator case included. Offered by son of the original owner
These late 1960's YAMAHA "Flying Samurai" solid body Electrics are as rare as Hens Teeth on this side of the Pacific. With the Teisco May Queens going for $1K+ these are certainly a higher quality (i.e. more musical playability) instrument from around the same period. You'd certainly be the only kid on the block to bring one of these to the Surf Guitar show. - JC
There was a time when you could find these Harmony Rocket's for $350 but that time is long gone. This seller is offering a nice looking original H-54 at a fair price and everything appears original including the tuners. Worth taking a look if you are in the market for one of these. - JC
Beautiful all original Harmony Rocket with DeArmond gold foil pickups. Pretty good condition all around, missing switch tip and has some cosmetic scratches and chips. Straight neck, intonates great, plays wonderfully. Warm and sweet with just the right bite. Includes original light weight case. You'll love this one!
This Original 1950's Cowboy Guitar looks to be in excellent shape as does the case. Certainly worth a look for American collectors who enjoy the graphics and nostalgia of these models - JC

Premier Model 50 - Vintage Guitar / Harp Tube amp in Albuquerque NM area for $250
The seller says they don't know if this amp works or not so this is a long shot - BUT these are great amps and the schematics are readily available and they are pretty much indestructible. Worth taking a look especially if you know your way around an old tube amp circuit and have some spare coin. - JC
condition: good
make / manufacturer: Premire
model name / number: Model 50
Used Premire Model 50 Tube Amp, as per the pictures. Complete and in decent cosmetic condition, no AC cord, have never tried this amp, no idea of functionally. Leather strap on top, dried out and broke, few scuffs and a dime bag cig. burn on top. Appears to be complete and original, Speaker looks good, all knobs are original, tubes are there. This is the last of my vintage amps, but may have a few vintage Astatic Harp mics and maybe some Shure's and such...
I live in Edgewood, work in Albuquerque, Journal Center area most days.
I am reposting items here that are listed on CRAIGSLIST throughout the USA. I am not selling any of these items and I cannot facilitate the sale of anything here - so please do not comment or post questions like "Is this still available?" or "I am interested in your guitar please call me, etc." You need to contact the seller directly by calling the phone number listed on the post or by going to the CL listing and emailing them. NEW FEATURE: Click on the title of the CL Listing inside my post to LINK thru to the original Post. If the original CL listing is deleted the item most likely is no longer available. Thanks for checking out my blog and GOOD LUCK!
Please don't call, contact, bother or harass these sellers long after their post is expired. Take for granted if the listing is over 30 days old that the guitar or amp is LONG GONE! Thank you.
