This stunning instrument has been brought back to entirely original specification by the factory that made it.  This guitar provides the experience of walking into a store in 1968 and seeing a brand new D-28 hanging up, pointing to it, and saying "I'll take that one."     This is an ideal guitar – displaying one of the most beautiful examples of straight-grained, quarter sawn Brazilian as we have recently laid our eyes upon.   This is made from wood of a level of quality it is doubtful could even be obtained today on any new guitar.  This is Now on Sale.  It WAS $8763 but is now available for less.

The Gibson Harp Guitar is one of the most fanciful looking instruments the Gibson Company (or any other company) ever made.  This guitar commands the immediate attention of everyone in the room, the concert hall or the auditorium.  It is shockingly big, wonderfully loud, notable  in its ability to allow a player to accompany him or herself with bass notes, chords and melody.   It is, in many wonderful ways, the musical instrument that can (finally) make your life complete.  This has been priced at $8764 with a Cash Discount Price of $8500.  HOWEVER: 

This Gibson harp guitar is presently "on hold" for a purchaser.

Back in 1921 Gibson Musical Instrument Co. formally hired a gentleman named Lloyd Loar, who had worked for them in other capacities, to act as the company’s “Acoustic Engineer.”  Professor Loar was a musical theorist who had many ideas about sound transmission and distribution.   His theories, brought to practice at the Gibson factory on Parsons Street in Kalamazoo, Michigan actually (in our opinion, at least) changed the course of American musical history.  Presently in the workshop, it  is priced at only $105,000 at our Cash Discount Price.

John D’Angelico, considered the finest independent guitar builder of the 20th Century, or at least for the first two-thirds of that century, made a keystone model that he called “New Yorker.”   This was an elaborately decorated instrument, made of the most select woods and built on a large platform (possibly because John was vertically challenged) measuring approximately 18” in body width.
