1967 Gibson ES-335-12 This extremely rare tobacco sunburst guitar is in excellent condition and completely original with OHSC (brown case has been painted black). It plays like a dream! $3000.00  
1984 Gibson Les Paul Standard Flametop Reissue The story is that the Scorpians owned this guitar, possibly as part of an endorsement deal with Gibson, and it was never played, but came up at auction recently. This instrument is everything a Les Paul is supposed to be and more. The most evenly flamed top I've seen in many years, and let there be no doubt, this guitar has virtually no sign of use beyond some oxidation on the nickel plating. It's a brand new 1984 Les Paul. I just cleaned the oxidation off the frets. With Gibson protector case $5000.00
Les Paul Guitar
1985 Gibson ES-335 Dot Neck Custom Shop - Before Gibson actually reissued the 1962 dot-neck, their custom shop made a few like this with necks that had the thicker shape than the original '62. This means they are more stable, as the thinner necks have a tendency to compound warp on the originals and the reissues. This all natural extremely flamey maple guitar is in Excellent condition. $2775 with OHSC.
1980's Fender American Strat - Maple neck, black with white pickguard – Excellent condition with HSC. $799.00.

Now add a national style resonator cone with peizo pickup, and a Rio Grande ‘Blues Dawg' P90. WOW – everything from Son House to George Thorogood…. With Pro-Tec case $750.00 Sold as of 9/08
Yamaha SBG3000--Special Order for Carlos Santana . The provenance indicates that Carlos ordered this guitar in 1976, and gave it to a famous athlete in about '83, and it has basically sat in it's case since then. It recently came up at auction, and has been through maintenance and set-up here in my shop at Kiernan Guitars, so I can personally assure you, this guitar has the Devadip built in!! Cherry Sunburst maple top with abalone purfling around the entire top. You too can channel Carlos for only $16,000
