Up for Sale. This has the trademark "Fender Twang". I played it through a deluxe reverb and a super reverb. WOW! It has a couple of knicks and player wear, but is in surprisingly clean condition. There is a "blend" pot underneath the cover at the bridge. Has legs, original case, ...

Up for sale. Voice of an angel. A modest collections of knicks and player wear. Original, no legs. Number written on back of pickguard matches serial number on bottom of guitar. Electronics are original. Someone added strap buttons at one time. I did not play it with a strap, but they are there! No ...

Hi, I am looking for a Fender Stringmaster long scale 26' - D6 or D8 and a Rickenbacker SW 6 or SW 8 Best Peter http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix1205/13299_ricky_2_2.jpg Estate liquidation. #5258 on body and written on inside of pickguard. Has the voice on an angel. I played it next to a 67 de...

Serial #5258, gray case. Wax pencil marks on back of pick-guard match serial number. Some checking to the finish. Tuned it to open "d" and played it through a super reverb. Amazing voice. Can anyone verify dating?

True that Fender Black tolex starts in 1964 but I think exterior logo started in 1966, so if no logo and case is original then high odds is 1964 or 1965... I think this is as close as we get. The Klusen's are stamped with two vertical lines of text which is post 1964. The pickups are gray wafer, so...

That asking price is too high IMHO. Only mid 60's are worth that much. Chad, Amp is pristine. The only flaw are two small patch cord scratches near one of the inputs. maybe a 1/4" long. Never left her home. She recently passed away at 95, so the math says she bought the amp at age 54. Now, thi...

I'm thinking Tutmarc also, but Father or Son, I dunno. The headstocks on most of the Audiovox guitars used 8-string mando-style tuners, although the guitars were 7-string (!) The headstock here seems more elegant. Give Rick at Guitar Maniacs in Tacoma a call, he might know something. I was having a...

I would put it between 1963 and 1968. Fender Black tolex Cases were introduced in late 1962. Tuners with octagonal shaped buttons were introduced in 1966 and phased in over the next couple of years. Your guitar does not have those tuners. The exact year has no bearing on the value. All of the Delux...

clearly it is a 6 string lap steel, square neck. No markings.

Amp chassis is stamped Dec 23, 1971! Christmas Eve Eve! Which is a little ironic because the amp is a one owner by a Steel player named Eva! I found this in the closet, in its cover. Played my Tele through it, WOW. Fender may attempt to RI these amps, but as Coca-Cola says: It's the real thing. I wa...

Vintage Fender Volume/Tone Pedal. Hot lead from input was "rub worn". Taped it a routed wiring with zip tie. Pots are clean no crackle. Otherwise, appears brand new. 115.00 includes shipping.

Fender Volume/Tone Pedal. Super clean, no crackle from pots. Rubber feet appear brand new. I have pics of the inside. Looks brand new!
150.00 plus shipping.

Fender Volume Pedal. I have no idea of the year. Has original box. In excellent shape. No Rust, rubber feet appear brand new. I have more images. Works great, no crackle in pot. 125.00 includes shipping.

David, it does look like yours is a Sho Bud, not ShoBro. As pointed out in the link, the ShoBuds handcrafted by Shot sound much better than the Gretsch guitars. I have one - an 8-stringer - made by Shot. What would make "yours" more valuable is if it is signed by Shot inside like mine is ...

Anyone have any info on this guitar. It has a letter of "encouragement" to the owner, handwritten by Jerry Byrd. Again, this is from the estate and i am trying to get a value.
best,

Here's some information on Sho-Bud resonator guitars . There's currently a similar guitar on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $1,350, but I think personally that's way too high. Here's one that sold recently for $400 on eBay, and here's another that sold for $543. They're not considered particularly...

There is a sho-bud stool w/ storage underneath that will sell with guitar.

Does anyone know if these are date stamped in the cavity?
best regards,

I am helping a friend with her Aunt's estate. This guitar has original case, sales receipt, stool and catalog. The initials in the headstock match the buyer's name on the receipt. Is it true less than a dozen of these were made as customs by Shot? I am trying to determine the value. best regards, Da...
