As always …local pickup ALWAYS wins here

59 J-50…I got 6k in it and I am trying to make 500 bucks on it…do the math

56 LP Special …22K plus shipping …ask any vintage dealer about that price…oh and don’t forget to tell them that it’s 9.5/10 condition

1980 Hamer Sunburst, a bit heavy but it’s a tone machine…set up PERFECTLY…priced VERY affordabily 3K

61 Fender 400 pedal steel…very low mileage and no rust whatsoever $2500.00
