Larrivee's revolutionary 40 Series features Jean's innovative "Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid" bracing system design. Based on their tried and true "X-Brace" design, Jean blended a non-symmetrical scalloped lateral cross-bracing pattern. This means maximum strength using the least amount of material. It's a build that allows even further vibration of the soundboard, while still offering a controlled bass response. The 40 Series are built in America using all solid wood, like all Larrivée's, and feature upgrades like bone bridge pins, nut and saddle, diamond fingerboard dots and Grover 18:1 open back tuners. Jean's exciting design means a fresh new sound that is sure to appeal to traditional and long-time Larrivee players alike.

  Here is a 1975 Fender Precision Bass with a natural finish, ash body, and maple neck and fingerboard. Serial number 626646.
The bass plays and sounds great. Currently set up with flatwound strings it has that solid, authoritative Precision tone you’d expect from a mid '70s Fender. It is in good condition showing overall cosmetic wear that is entirely consistent with its age - nothing out of the ordinary for a 50-year-old instrument.
  The pickguard has been replaced with a solid brass guard, and the pickups were swapped out many years ago for EMG pickups. Based on the pots, the pickup change most likely dates to the 1980s. It is a great playing vintage Precision with some period correct mods.
  Includes the original hardshell case.

Carlos Santana's longstanding creative partnership with Paul Reed Smith has done much to shape the destiny of PRS Guitars. Over the years, we have honored this pivotal alliance by offering variations of his signature model instrument. The Santana Retro pays homage to the early “Pre-Factory” guitars Paul built for Carlos in the early 1980’s. Several unique design elements are reintroduced on this model, including a deeper body carve, original style heel, and the original headstock shape and nut placement. The Santana Retro blends history and modern manufacturing to create a highly musical guitar good enough for the man himself.

The Orchestra Model is a greatly favored shape amongst Goodall's Traditional lineup. It features a smaller, more comfortable to hold body size. Its tone is extremely powerful in the bass and midrange, with an emphasis on a broad warmth without lacking treble. It features a custom, partially scalloped bracing pattern which produces a bit more 'boominess' in the bass and midrange. It is attractively arrayed with a herringbone marquetry rosette and top purfling, and a chevron marquetry backstrip. It has been designed especially with the flatpicker and the bluegrass player in mind.

Upgraded with Adirondack Spruce braces.
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, they 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 DGT Semi-Hollow is based off one of David Grissom’s personal Private Stock guitars. It carries all the core features players love about the PRS Core DGT, including the wood selection, 22 frets, 25” scale length, the signature DGT neck shape, and jumbo frets, while adding the unique character of a semi-hollow body.
