New Addition to the Family!!
1956 FENDER ESQUIRE - "FEATHER"

Hi all. We just got in a really cool addition to our vintage family. "Feather", the 1956 Esquire has graced us with her presence. She is by far the lightest vintage Fender guitar I have ever seen. Her maple neck hardly shows any fingerboard wear too! I'll get her exact weight and post it shortly..She comes with the original tweed case which still features the original Fender metal tag on the top lid. We all know how impossible it is to find a 50's tweed case where the Fender tag is still attached. Here's a few pics..Enjoy!

New Addition to the Family!!
1952 FENDER TELECASTER!!

Hi all. I just got back today from a really fun trip to Cleveland via a short stop in Chicago..While there I had the pleasure of meeting with Bob C., and purchased his beautiful 1952 black guard Telecaster which his father bought new in 1952!! Bob was an incredible guy and he kept me amazed at the many stories related to his dad, his family and this wonderful piece of Fender history! This awesome guitar has hardly any fingerboard wear and is 100% original. It plays and sounds as good as it looks. Check out the photos below of Bob and me with the guitar and Bob playing his father's pride and joy circa 1960. Too cool!! Thanks Bob, for your kindness and hospitality. I had a great trip, one which I will remember for a long long time.
