Here an uncommon Gibson LP Elegant from 2000. Since the first sunburst finished Les Pauls arrived in 1958, the Gibson Les Paul Standard is considered one of the nicest looking solid electric guitars, partly due to rarity and also due to performance. The Gibson USA Les Paul elegant has a bit of that in a more recent setting; a highly figured top and classic Les Paul design, and a quality look about it. A flame maple top in red finish with mahogany body and ebony fingerboard. Lightly chambered, this Les Paul Elegant is easy to handle too and plays well. Lives in its fitted case .
Here’s a stunning 2025 Fender Custom Shop Telecaster ’68 Reissue in Pink Paisley, a guitar that perfectly combines iconic vintage styling with exceptional Custom Shop craftsmanship. The eye-catching Pink Paisley finish contrasts beautifully with the chrome hardware, creating one of Fender’s most distinctive and sought-after looks. This guitar is in excellent, near-unplayed condition, making it an outstanding option for both collectors and players. Built with an ash body, maple neck, and maple fingerboard, it delivers the classic Telecaster snap, clarity, and responsiveness that players have loved for decades. A true head-turner, this Telecaster not only looks incredible but also plays effortlessly, offering superb feel, resonance, and plenty of vintage-inspired character. Whether you’re a serious collector or a working musician, this Custom Shop instrument offers the perfect blend of playability, craftsmanship, and mojo. While Telecasters are available in many finishes, the legendary Pink Paisley design remains one of Fender’s most recognisable and desirable. This example presents exceptionally well, with only very light swirl marks visible on the transparent pickguard from careful polishing.

Here we have an uncommon Fender Standard Stratocaster introduced during 1981-83 within the so-called Dan Smith Era in Fender. The guitar is a Hardtail and is finished in a stunning Tobacco Sunburst with a black pick guard. This guitar has a common vol and tone arrangement for the 3 pickups with the jack socket flush and as part of the scratch plate on the front. As for the sound the guitar has no major differences in sound from the more common 3-knob Stratocaster guitars. The 2-knob Stratocaster was only produced for two years from 1981-3. Another point from the DS era is the reverting back to 4-bolt neck joints and the original smaller headstock whilst retaining the larger decal transfer we know from ‘70s fender designs. The 1981 Standard Stratocaster was produced until 1983, when it was significantly revised by placing the jack plug on the pickguard flush with the body and offering only one tone control instead of two. The CBS 70s style headstock decal was also changed to a smaller, silver logo style that would be subsequently used in the 1987 American Standard. These 1981-83 first version of the Standard Stratocaster have become known on the street (and in third party literature) as the “Dan Smith Stratocaster”. Smith’s name is not placed on the headstock, or anywhere else on the instrument, but it’s only fair that Stratocaster enthusiasts have dubbed this model the “Smith Strat” in homage to the man who brought the Stratocaster back closer to the original 1950s design. Guitar lives in its case.
