Marshall 4212 JCM800 2x12 Tube Combo amp in ong Beach for $500

These are great amps for straight forward rock n roll players. I have seen 4212's like this on many stages over the years and they always sound good to my ears.  Simple 2-channel design, one clean one crunchy, with reverb.  What more do you need?  These are not light.  From the 80's when Marshall's factory in England was still operating at peak form.   Check it out if you are in the area.  - JC

Marshall JCM 800 4212 2x12

For sale is a vintage JCM 800 50 watt model 4212 amplifier. The pots need to be cleaned out to avoid crackling when changing volume or the reverb but that's the only problem. Everything on it is original incuding both 12 inch speakers. Cosmetically it looks like it should for being over 30 years old, but theres no rips or tears anywhere on the amp. It comes with the original channel selector foot switch to switch between a clean reverb channel and the heavy distortion. The amp sounds good once you get all the knobs to where you want them. I've used this amp for everything from jazz and R&B to heavy metal.
Similar amps are selling upwards of $1000. I payed 650 and am willing to let it go for 500 to help pay off some college loans.

Hammond L-112 Tube Tonewheel Organ in El Segundo CA for $100 - Keith Emerson model!

I am not an organ expert but I do know that Keith Emerson of ELP used this particular model on stage for many years to get his distinctive sound.  the L-112 is basically a B-3 without the "percussive click" sound (Hammond Engineers adjusted the tone circuit to remove the click).   So you can't get the Jimmy Smith tone but it should do a lot of other stuff pretty well.  The guy in the Stranglers also used a model like this on stage. This is one of the last all tube tone-wheel models made by Hammond and its listed weight is 215 lbs. - JC

Interesting 1950's solid body electric w/ Hofner pickups in Washington State for $150

This seller is offering an unfamiliar solid body electric that he says is from the 1950's and has Hofner pickups.  I don't know if Hofner even made any solid body electric back in the 1950's so this may well be a one off or homemade guitar but it looks interesting enough.  he says it is "heavy" so it may be solid mahagony (though the grain looks different to me) and that wraparound tailpiece gives it a Les Paul Jr. sort of appeal.  That neck alomsot looks like a Kay neck - so this could be a hybrid of several different parts.  All that said, there is no way to know what it plays like or sounds like without asking the seller or checking it out yourself.  Skagit Island must be one of those obscure Pacific Northwest locations so this one is a reaal shot in the dark.

Vintage Archtop in Aurora, CO for $150 - cool faux tiger w/ orig picguard

This seller is offering one of the Chicago made f-hole archtops with the faux blonde tiger-stripe finish for a decent price.  These are not great players but they are definitely cool to have hanging around and this one appears to be in particularly nice shape with the original pickguard (which almost never survive intact).

Mississippi at I-225

Uber cool retro 50's faux tiger stripe guitar F hole archtop guitar in 'naner puddin' yellow. Still has it's original pick guard too. Not sure of the specific maker but these were labeled and sold as Montgomery Wards, Airline, Harmony, and Silvertone that I can name off the top of my head. Definitely nails that po' boy blues, country, rock n roll, rockabilly tone. On ebay I've seen them called Club Catalinas, or other. Slap a floating pickup on it and rock it a la Big Joe Williams. Or raise the strings and make a slide gitter out of it. Inside of the guitar is stamped L9949 58xx. The tuners are the 3 on a side Klusen Deluxe tuners just like the old Gibson LP Jr.'s.

Danelectro DM-10 tube amp in Scranton PA for $125

These little Danelectro's have a circuit are just like the tube amps that went into the 1456 "amp in case" models.  Single 6V6GT output tube and 12AX7 for the preamp and tremolo.    You don't see the Danelectro versions as much as the Silvertones - I think that equivalent model was the 1471 but i could be wrong.

Current Vintage Guitar Deals at GC in thier Used Gear Dept

I've bought several vintage guitars from Guitar Center over the years and it is usually a very good transaction.  The nice part is they box well and ship for cheap (usually about $25) and they will take a return if the guitar turns out to have an undisclosed problem.  That said, it is still Caveat Emptor - "Let the Buyer Beware."   Here is a list of some current Vintage Guitar finds at GC that won't be making it into their "Vintage Room" LOL.   Just call the individual Guitar Center location and talk to a staff member to find out more about these specific guitars.

KENT POLARIS at GC in Dayton OH for $149

This Polaris has a few things going for it, one being the less common cream finish (they are usually sunburst) and this one has a Vibrato tailpiece with the original vibrato arm in place (very unusual). 

NATIONAL MIJ Acoustic w/ DeArmond Pickup at GC in Richmond VA for $249

I can speak for the quality or sound of these late's 60's Made in Japan National Acoustics (though this one looks like a pretty fancy model) but the DeArmond pickup in the soundhole of this one is almost worth the price of admission (if it works).

SUPRO STUDENT DELUXE LAP STEEL at GC in SCRANTON PA FOR $249

This Supro Student Deluxe lappie looks alot like my old Supro Comet and it has the same "string thru" pickup that sounds keeelah for dirty blues.

HARMONY H6164 SOVEREIGN ACOUSTIC AT GC in DALLAS TX for $279

Okay, so it isn't an H1264 (Ryan Adams) model but this Sovereign still looks sweet (unless the action is a mile high).  Worth taking a look since this one is the earlier "bound neck" version and should sound good.
