Vintage Kay Trutone Speed Demon Triple in Spokane WA for $250

Sorry I've been laying low and not posting lately - busy closing on my house (BTW - Bank of America Suuuuucks!!) but here is a nice Kay/Trutone Speed Demon Triple for only $250.  These are cool guitars - they won't go head to head with a Les Paul but they are still fun and oooh so cool with lots of vintage mojo.

Two Acoustics - Ibanez and Takamine - for $50 in Inland Empire CA

This seller is offering both these guitars for $50.  I contacted them over the weekend and the guitars are still available today - Monday Nov. 15th.  The Ibanez looks like the basic intro student model that sells for $99 new but the Takamine should be a nice guitar - the bottom of the line Takamine goes for $250 and they go up from there so if you bought both and sold the Ibanez for $50 to someone else you'd have a nice Takamine acoustic for free.  Good Luck.

Fender 1960-63 Brownface Concert 2x12 for $150 - DO NOT CALL!

This listing went up today and it was GONE within a couple of hours - but it's just the sort of thing we all look out for so I wanted to list it here. This seller "Andy" listed his "Vintage Fender Concert Amp with Marshall 2x12 Speakers" for $150. Of course if you look carefullly you'll notice it is a Brownface - Wow!  What a nice find for the buyer at that price.

It does happen.

I called Andy and he said:  "Oh yeah, that sold right away."  Gee, I wonder why?

Django Reinhardt plays Electric Guitar w/ Duke Ellington

Another slightly unusual post but I couldn't resist:

I've always respected Django Reinhardt as an influential guitarist but mostly for the quaint "Gypsy Style" acoustic Jazz on his pre-war recordings with Stefan Grapelli and The Hot Club Quartet. This recording changed my mind completely - he is a Guitar Monster period!

Apparently Duke Ellington met Django in Paris during the war and invited him to the USA to tour with his big band and when Django showed up without a guitar a friend took him to the Epiphone factory in New York City where he picked up this 1945 Epiphone Regent electric and an Electar amp. 

The results speak for themselves.

Stella by Harmony Flat Top Acoustic - nice - in Green Bay WI for $65

This is avery cool looking Stella by Harmony.  Probably from the 1960's.  Lovely solid wood construction - top looks like one solid piece of Spruce or Birch.  This is not a common guitar - at least not anymore.  Beautiful pics on this listing by the way. - JC

For sale is a late 60’s Standel Artist solid state amp, 100 watts. Nice sounding amp that gets plenty loud for large settings.

But be advised - It does weight A LOT (75-100 pounds?). I used it at church for a couple of years, but now we have a new system and I don’t need this amp any more.

Do a Google search on Standel amps – they get excellent reviews across the board.

Please email if you are interested or have any questions. Thanks!
