We deal mainly in the sales of some of the finest high end and collectable USA vintage guitars as well as the aquisition of same. We are also interested in trading and we can also buy your gear. Our services do include our JVGCustom Shop Repairs & Restoration work. . We also are very interested in sales - trading & the purchasing of the Japanese Early Classic collectible now almost 30 years later they are real Vintage guitars. Looking for one off's and so called "law suit" model guitars from the best of the late 70's-threw the 80's... just the great high quality Japanese manufactures of these types of guitars like Tokai, Ibanez, Greco, Aria, Orville, Yamaha, Burny and many others with less known names built in the same factories by the same people using same or similar materials & methods of construction as " The Big Guys " and play and sound just as good as guitars three times the cost. We have a few select custom built luthier offerings.
I personally started playing guitar at the age of 10 in 1964 and in bands by 7th grade and by 24 I had been in several very good local bands here in the bay area. I have previously threw the "60's & 70's and still do currently personally play vintage pre-& post cbs Strats & 60's 335's & Les Paul's, 60's black faced Super & Deluxe Reverb amps.
I believe I do know what both you collectors and pro level players want, I also have established over time ( 17+ years ) now some very good world wide network of friends and associates to help us seek out and procure these instruments. I have access to just about any kind / type of guitar, and with our lower overhead you will get a good fair deal too.
