Philadelphia Guitar Show with pictures

Sign in to disble this ad
I went to the Great American Guitar Show at the Valley Forge convention center today. Light on basses, as per, but there were some sweet instruments there.



Some really nice Balls there.




The sunburst BFR Stingray HH with the roasted neck was calling to me. Great price.


Kevin 'probass' Borden had some great instuments. He said he recently bought a preCBS vintage collection with something like 25 items.


The dots and binding LPB Jazz w/ matching headstock was a great player. I almost bought an '83 P with added Kahler for $700, but got something else instead.


Nice pair. Original everything. Never seen one cleaner.


Lots of overpriced stuff, too.


Some really nice guitars there, too.


1956 Mary Kaye Strat. really good shape.



What came home with me. NOS Lakland Skyline Glaub for $700. GREAT player. Thanks, Low End Guys!

Cool pics, Jim! I love those transition Js with dots and no binding.

Congrats on the Glaub, that's a smokin' deal.
