Limited to only 2000 pieces, this run of Rickys were a tribute to John Lennon's original 325, but with a twist. Unlike Lennon's three-quarter-scale original, the 355JL has a 24.75\" scale length to accommodate players more used to traditional long-scale instruments. As a result, it is highly comfortable to play!\n\n\n\nSonically, it's an absolute joy. The three vintage toaster pickups in this bad boy nail the classic Rickenbacker chime and jangle. Close your eyes and crank up your amp and you might feel like you've been transported to a small club in Hamburg in 1962. The bridge pickup has tons of sparkle and bite, the middle pickup is sweeter with a broader midrange response, and the neck pickup is righteously smooth and warm with a lovely sunny high end. It's also supremely touch-sensitive! It sounds warm and glassy when you play softly, then the glass breaks in the best possible way when you dig in.\n\n\n\nThough it nails the classic jangle of the British Invasion, this guitar can also rock quite hard. Just for funsies, I plugged it into a pinned dirty channel, and it absolutely roared--easily the best rock tone I've gotten in some time! So, while this guitar may be a bit of a collector's item, don't get it twisted: it's a sonic powerhouse that's awfully difficult to put down.\n\n\n\nThe aesthetic details are all there, too. In fact, Rickenbacker busted out some original tooling to make sure the nameplate, pickguard, and headstock were all as accurate as can be. \n\n\n\nAll in all, this 355JL is glorious example of Rickenbacker style and tone, and once you harness its power, we have no doubt chime will be on your side.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition of Instrument\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis beautiful '91 Ricky 355JL is in fantastic shape.

However, all parties were forced to at least reconsider after hearing this magnificent '65 P Bass with an Olympic White finish that has aged unbelievably well (all that checking, and the patina...mmmmm). Apart from looking cooler than a polar bear's toenail, it sounds jaw-dropping.\n\n\n\nFirst off, it's amazing the range of sounds you can get just by altering your velocity and technique. The attack is round and springy with some delicious musical compression that really makes the percussive quality of the attack come through. When you play with a light touch, this P Bass sounds warm and piano-like. When you dig in, it snarls more, but it mostly becomes more \u003cem\u003epresent\u003c\/em\u003e. The notes stay round and punchy with an open-throated quality even when you play aggressively. However, you can significantly increase the volume based on the power of your attack, and that gives this bass a huge dynamic range, which makes for a delightfully expressive playing experience. \n\n\n\nFrequency-response wise, the low-end is monstrous, the midrange packs a wide punch, and the highs are unbelievably fat and sweet. Across the spectrum, this serial has a dry, woody tonality, but it feels cavernous and huge, too. It does the classic Precision sound as well or better than just about any thud staff that has graced Wildwood's shelves, and its iconic tone works in just about any genre or context (who needs a Swiss Army knife when you can cut through with a broadsword?). \n\n\n\nWe're proud to showcase this beastly bass, and we have no doubt its pugnacious Precision tone will inspire you to bring the thump! \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nWildwoodians, it is our privilege to showcase this incredible 1965 Fender Precision Bass.

It has lots of awesome checking and other battle scars that tell the story of a bass that has been a workhorse for much of its life. All parts appear to be original and function well (although the E string tuner is a little sloppy, it's not bad by any means). The frets show some moderate wear--always a sign that a vintage piece is hard to put down! By the look of it, it has undergone one repair to the finish on the bass-side lower bout, which occurred prior to when the previous owner acquired it in 1972.

Simply put, this new round-shouldered beast is one of the most inspiring new guitar designs to emerge in the last decade. Though many of Taylor's classic cornerstones inform its design, the Grand Pacific sounds and feels like nothing else in their entire line. It's revolutionary, it's bold, it's fresh, it's imaginative, and above all, it is sure to inspire you to reach new heights on your journeys across the fretboard. I (Trevor, the resident Wildwood Guitar Scribe) would like to cordially invite you to journey down the rabbit hole with me and learn a bit more about what makes the Grand Pacific so spectacular.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCalifornia Dreamin'\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore we get into the specific delights the 517e has to offer, let's take a step back and talk about what the Grand Pacific body style is and what benefits it offers the player. I was lucky enough to learn straight from the source, because our friends at Taylor were kind enough to fly me out to San Diego to visit their factory in El Cajon and learn about the Grand Pacific from Andy Powers himself. Andy Powers is everything you'd hope him to be. He brims with warmth and intelligence, and he is a truly fearsome guitar picker. After setting the fretboard ablaze as he put a Grand Pacific through its paces, he shed some light on what inspired him to build the guitar in the first place. While Andy was doing a bunch of work on his new home, he found himself listening to a lot of classic acoustic music: bluegrass, country, and folk. Now, Andy was a renowned repairman before he started work at Taylor. Though he's too modest to name names, he personally worked on many historic guitars that made appearances on iconic records. As he listened to these albums, he reflected on the time he spent with these classic instruments. Oddly enough, many of them left him wanting something more when he sat down with them. They just didn't sound like the record! Why? The wheels in Andy's head started turning, and he started dreaming. How could he design an acoustic guitar that sounded like a record in the room? The seed that would grow into the Grand Pacific began to sprout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Birth of V-Class\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo tell the story of the Grand Pacific, we have to pick up the story of V-Class bracing. Though V-Class bracing made its commercial debut in Taylor's Grand Auditorium guitars, Andy Powers actually came up with the idea for the Grand Pacific. V-Class bracing is truly revolutionary, and it is one of the reasons for the Grand Pacific's greatness. You see, for years acoustic guitar builders had to compromise between volume and sustain. Flexibility equals volume, and stiffness equals sustain. Obviously, a piece of wood cannot be rigid and flexible at the same time, so builders had to go for one or the other. Andy Powers wanted to have his cake and eat it, too. After much tinkering, V-Class bracing was his elegant solution to the problem that has plagued luthiers for centuries. As the name implies, V-Class bracing features two long pieces of wood that make a \"V\" shape together. The bracing is quite thin and flexible near the rear bout, but it becomes thicker as you get closer to the soundhole. So, you get volume from the flexible parts of the bracing, and sustain from the rigid parts! Many areas of the guitar neck that typically sound weak (ninth fret on the G string, for instance) have just as much presence, resonance, and sustain as the low E. As a result, the Grand Pacific sounds supremely balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIntonation Station\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eV-Class bracing also does wonders for the guitar's intonation. Are you ready to have your mind blown? When I was in El Cajon, Andy explained that an acoustic guitar's intonation is not necessarily just the sum of the typical adjustments like saddle height, nut slots, and neck angle (though they do play a part). The way that the \u003cem\u003eactual guitar itself\u003c\/em\u003e vibrates also has a lot to do with how in-tune it sounds. Andy told me to picture it like this: when you take close-up slow-motion footage of a guitar's top with a high-speed camera as someone plays it, you can see the top move vividly. On a traditional X-braced guitar, the top vibrates in a disorderly, disjointed manner. This can cause a guitar with the perfect saddle height and neck angle to sound out of tune when you play a big open chord. By contrast, guitars with V-Class bracing vibrate in a much more orderly manner. The graduated braces compel the energy from the player's attack to move from the thin outer part of the bracing to the thicker inner part in an efficient manner. If you were to take a high-speed shot of a V-Class top, you would see it rock back and forth evenly. Because of that V-Class magic, the Grand Pacific sounds so in-tune that it's scary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Metaphor for Monster Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, how does V-Class bracing sound in the context of a classic dreadnought? Andy loves to talk in metaphors, and he shared one really crystallized my understanding of the Grand Pacific's tone. Imagine a six-lane highway with six cars traveling side-by-side in their respective lanes. That's how a Grand Auditorium with V-Class bracing sounds. You can hear each note ring out pure and clear with excellent separation. The Grand Pacific's is more like six boats traveling side by side. Though the boats don't crash into one another, their wakes interact behind them. When you strum all six strings on a Grand Pacific, the notes \"run together\" and blend in a way that is symmetrical and orderly but also warm and inviting. Andy kept calling it a \"seasoned\" sound, and that's an apt description. The notes bleed into one another and form beautiful vivid, colorful timbres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePost-Production Magic\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reason why most of the iconic guitars Andy repaired left him feeling disappointed is simple: a lot usually happens to acoustic tracks in post-production. Typically, a mixing engineer will use an EQ to roll off woofy low end and cut other \"problem frequencies\" that sound ugly. They'll then use a compressor to round off the attack, and a limiter to kill any remaining transients. So, that guitar that sounded gloriously rich in the room during the recording winds up sounded sculpted and well-mannered on the actual record. Thanks to its V-Class bracing, the Grand Pacific sounds like much of this post-production work is already done as you play it live in the room. Here's the best way to explain it, again courtesy of the illustrious Mr. Powers. Put an open palm in front of your mouth and say \"PUH PUH PUH PUH PUH\" repeatedly (don't do this in public or you will look foolish). Then say \"MM MM MM MM MM\" into your palm. Typical dreadnoughts make that \"PUH\" noise upon attack as woofy low-end escapes the soundhole. The Grand Pacific makes more of a \"MM\" sound. It may not rattle your rattle your ribs, but it does sound awfully nice-iconic, even. Therein lies both the rub and the magic with the Grand Pacific: though it has plenty of muscle and power, it doesn't necessarily sound like a wooden piano in the room. It sounds produced, and there's a big difference. For that reason, it's not going to replace your J-45 or your D-18. Big-sounding, boomy acoustics are a lot of fun, and we love them, too. The Grand Pacific just presents a whole new flavor of acoustic tone that is different but equally enticing. Playing one feels like stepping into a classic record that hasn't been made yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdd it Up\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, what does it all add up to, sonically? The Grand Pacific sounds warm, seasoned, and inviting like a classic dreadnought as warm overtones swirl together and mix to form a truly spectacular collage of sound. But, V-Class bracing also gives it a spectacular combination of volume and sustain. Furthermore, V-Class bracing helps sculpt the Grand Pacific's frequency response to sound balanced and mannered. Not to mention, it helps give the Grand Pacific astoundingly accurate intonation. So, to sum things up: the Grand Pacific is a warm, vintage-style dreadnought with improved volume, sustain, balance, and intonation. I don't know about you, but I'll trade a little bass boom for all that any day of the week!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Delights of Adirondack Spruce\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere at Wildwood, we love Adirondack spruce the way the narrator of the Percy Sledge song \"When a Man Loves a Woman\" loves the titular woman: fervently, and with our whole heart. Adirondack spruce has a few inspiring signature sonic quirks, and we love the way it adds flavor when used for bracing. But first, a crash course in headroom: every acoustic guitar top has a point at which it can't get louder. When an acoustic guitar reaches this point, the guitar starts becoming more and more compressed as the player hits harder. The longer it takes for a guitar to reach this point of compression (I like to call it The Point of No Return), the higher its headroom. Furthermore, Adirondack spruce bracing tends to impart a woody, percussive quality to the guitar's attack. Subtle right-hand dynamics come through with exceptional fidelity and detail, but it's not a sterile sort of hi-fi sound. So, this guitar has a clear, organic, bold attack that asserts itself with incredible power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmitten With the Builder's Edition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular model is a Builder's Edition 517e. As with all the other Builder's Editions, it has a host of luxurious appointments.

It also sports a compound-carved neck profile that makes for natural handfeel all the way up and down the fretboard. Factor in the round, warm tone produced by the mahogany back and sides, and you get an intoxicating sonic cocktail full of vintage flavors.

It can go from righteously smooth to downright dangerous depending on your mood, and that makes for a wonderfully expressive playing experience. \n\n\n\nIf you're seeking a monster Jazz Bass, everyone in the Wildwood Bass Department believes you owe it to yourself to take this one for a spin, because it is truly magnificent.

It shows the typical wear we expect to see on an instrument of its age (checking, scratches, chips, dings, burn-throughs, etc.) and it looks super-cool. A previous owner drilled a hole in the back (likely for a strap button), and one small area by the control plate has been touched up, probably a long time ago. All of the parts look to be original, although it looks like the pickups have been removed and re-installed at some point. The frets also look original, and they show moderate wear. A previous owner replaced the plastic nut with one made of bone, improving the resonance and sustain. Finally, there are some small cosmetic cracks in the fingerboard that do not affect its stability. They look like they've been there a long time.

It may look unfamiliar (and you find yourself asking \"What the heck is a Theodore?\"), but that's because it's an entirely new model! Well, kind of...you see, Gibson president Theodore \"Ted\" McCarty was one of the driving forces that brought Gibson to the forefront of electric guitar culture in the 1950s, and he did so in part by championing all sorts of futuristic models like the Explorer and the Flying V. This model is based on a concept he came up with that was never put into production. So, it's simultaneously old and new! Though it's certainly a collector's item (only 318 were made!), it also absolutely rips--after all, there are few things in this world better than a Gibson Custom Shop guitar with P-90s!

There might be, but after sitting down with the Gibson Custom Shop Theodore, I'd be hard-pressed to name any examples (yep, they rip hard enough to cause temporary amnesia!). They're super touch-sensitive: if you play softly, they have a beautiful glassy tone, and when you dig in all sorts of sparkling overtones bloom, creating a beautiful crunch 'n' punch combo. The Theodore's bridge pickup can snarl, jangle, or twang depending on your mood, and the neck pickup is devastatingly thick and rich, although it remains articulate enough for full six-string chords. All in all, the Theodore stands as an exemplar of P-90 tone, and it will inspire you to crank up the volume and play loud! \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis Gibson Custom Shop Theodore from the Archive Collection is in beautiful condition, and it shows hardly any signs of use.

The 50 Watt setting delivers bold authority and the highest headroom while the 20-watt setting finds the power tubes re-wired for Triode operation that unveils greater clipping potential and a mid-scooped, harmonic-laden response that reveals trademark EL34 tone.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA Unique Sonic Profile with Crushing Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nSometimes less is more, and if that's your mantra, the Badlander 50 is a perfect fit. Weighing-in at considerably less, there are physical considerations at play for sure. Yet the Middleweight contender in the Badlander Family has its own story to tell when it comes to defiant attitude and a rebellious nature. Some feel there is a unique benefit to lower wattage amplifiers, often described as a sense that top-end travels more freely and quickly through the circuit. While perhaps a bit over-simplified, truth be told the Badlander in 50 Watt form does display that characteristic along with its bouncy, easy-to-play nature.\n\n\n\nThe Badlander 50 is also the recordist's dream realized. It features our first onboard CabClone IR and it delivers seamless DI with Channel Specific IR Assignment of the 8 virtual Cabinets and a Reactive Load that sounds and feels great.

Evolving from the revered EVH 5150III amplifiers, the Iconic Series delivers the searing sound and growling gain that Eddie Van Halen made famous throughout his groundbreaking career.\n\n\n\nDesigned by renowned amp engineer James Brown, the 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head is powered by four 6L6 power tubes and voiced by a complex, multi-stage hybrid preamp section anchored by a duet of ECC83 tubes providing all the firepower the modern guitarist needs in a simple to use format.\n\n\n\nThis head features two channels with an extra voicing on each for even more versatility. The Green channel boasts an overdrive button to run from lush clean tones to increased gain, while the Red channel's burn button adds fiery crunch that's ideal for blistering leads.\n\n\n\nEach channel houses its own gain and volume controls, allowing for level-matching the volume when switching between the clean and high gain channels. The channel two noise gate's quick attack suppresses any hiss while ensuring all staccato riffing is articulate and crisp, not choked and choppy. The Boost control allows you to add another 10Db of foot-switchable volume to your tone - perfect for ensuring your solos cut through the mix.

The original ebony fretboard was replaced by the experts at Woodsongs Lutherie, who were able to preserve the original snowflake inlays in the new fretboard.

One name kept popping up over and over on these old patents: Ted McCarty. Paul did a bit more digging and found that Ted McCarty was Gibson's president from 1950 to 1966. During that time, he used his considerable engineering experience to help develop dozens of innovative designs that shaped the electric guitar into what it is today. Over the course of the McCarty era, Gibson went from selling 5,000 instruments a year to 100,000 a year. Ted clearly knew a thing or two about building guitars and about running a guitar company. So, Paul decided to reach out to Ted and ask for an interview so he could pick his brain a little. Ted obliged him, and that interview blossomed into a decades-long friendship. They became such good buddies that Paul decided to honor Ted by designing a guitar using all of the tips and techniques he'd gleaned from their conversations. Naturally, he named the guitar after his friend. The PRS McCarty had arrived. Ever since its birth in 1994, the McCarty model has inspired countless players with its blend of vintage tone and modern playability. It's also a fitting tribute to Ted McCarty and his friendship with Paul Reed Smith. Throughout the years, Paul's tireless drive to innovate has produced several delectable additions to the McCarty line: the McCarty 594, the McCarty SC 594, and the McCarty 594 Hollowbody II. After all, you can't rest on your laurels when you've named a guitar after one of the greatest six-string innovators ever to live! We believe that each model combines the best qualities of old and new in one art museum-worthy package. Wildwood Guitars is proud to showcase the fruit of Paul and Ted's excellent adventure: the PRS McCarty. The McCarty's excellence is a testament to the powers of collaboration and friendship. It's proof that when two brilliant people who enjoy one another's company roll up their sleeves and get to work, magnificent things happen. We invite you to try out this fabulous instrument and see how it inspires you.

Whatever the case may be, this '26 Martin 00-28 12-fret sounds glorious! It's all there: old-world craftsmanship,  legendary tonewoods, and the kind of sonic seasoning that can only come from almost a hundred years of musical service. Oftentimes, we say that vintage guitars have been \"broken in\" like a pair of blue jeans, but this Martin goes beyond that. Nearly a century of play has opened up its voice and given it a truly amazing vintage woody characteristic, although to be honest, it would still probably sound cool if it was brand-new--such is the power of Brazilian rosewood back and sides combined with an Adirondack spruce top! \n\n\n\nThe Adirondack spruce produces a powerful fundamental, boosts the guitar's headroom and projecting power, and enhances articulation, while Brazilian rosewood...well, look up \"richness\" or \"piano-like\" in the dictionary and you'll get a rough idea of this legendary tonewood's power! Beyond that, the 12-fret construction boosts responsiveness and adds a natural reverberance and fullness to the tone. \n\n\n\nThis serial is a marvelous example of the tone of both woods! It boasts a powerful, broad bass response and open, sonorous midrange. The highs are glassy and sweet, with plenty of sparkle as you dig in. It's one of those small-bodied guitars that punches far above its weight class. It's astonishing how beefy each note sounds, yet when you strum full chords it remains clear and balanced. Overall, it sounds how you expect a guitar three times its size would, but with the responsiveness of a and clarity of a small body.  \n\n\n\nAll in all, this 1926 00-28 12-fret is one of the mightiest acoustic stallions we've ever had the privilege of showcasing, and we have no doubt it will inspire some lucky acoustic aficionado to embark on all sorts of exciting fretboard adventures! \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis monster Martin is in awesome shape, especially considering it's 'pert-near a century old!

Here's a quick rundown of what makes them tick. They're slightly underwound, which gives them exceptional dynamic response and touch sensitivity. You can really alter your sound based on how hard you're hitting, which makes for a wonderfully expressive playing experience. However, they are wound with thicker wire like Fender did in the sixties, which gives them a little more power and guts despite being underwound. As a result, their voice is similar to vintage Strat pickups we love with lots of bell-like chime and vocal response, but with a little extra warmth and muscle. \n\n\n\nAlthough they are not exactly the same as a real vintage example, we think they capture the magic sound of a great vintage Strat, giving you access to the iconic sound that shaped countless classic records. We have no doubt they will make your heartstrings resonate! \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis Fender is in fabulous shape!

While kids everywhere jostled one other in front of the TV set for a chance to play the first iteration of Pong, adults everywhere saw the tale of the Watergate scandal unfold on the evening news.\n\n\n\nThe musical world was in tumult, too, and the upheaval caught Fender off guard. Led Zeppelin had dethroned the Beatles as the biggest band on Earth, and David Bowie debuted a new stage persona modeled after Lou Reed and Iggy Pop that he called Ziggy Stardust. The sound of a humbucker-equipped guitar plugged into a Marshall amplifier was the de facto sound of rock and roll, and Fender was nervous that their single-coils wouldn't be able to keep up with the demands of rockers looking for meaty tones.\n\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStealing Seth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nSo, the geniuses at Fender worked out a plan: they'd entice legendary pickup-winding wizard Seth Lover to jump ship from Gibson to Fender and have him design a world-beating humbucking pickup. Then, they'd develop a Telecaster that bore a passing resemblance by Keith Richards's legendary blackguard named Micawber (a Tele routed for a humbucker in the neck position).\n\n\n\nThey executed their scheme to perfection, and the legend of the '72 Telecaster Custom was born. The pickups that Seth Lover designed for these terrifying Teles-which he dubbed Wide-Range Humbuckers-have such an incomparable tone that original examples sometimes fetch three, four, or even five hundred dollars on the open marketplace.\n\n\n\nAnd they deserve their price tag and their reputation, because they're a big part of the Tele Custom's magic. Wide-Range humbuckers sound unlike any other double-coil pickup on the planet. They have a remarkably snappy attack, whereas more traditional PAF-style 'buckers give the front end of your notes a rounder, more pillowy quality.\n\n\n\nAfter that unmistakably crisp attack, the Wide-Range humbucker sings with a voice that is warm and creamy yet clear and articulate, and it has an open, airy top-end. You can get a delightfully rich, full sound out of a Wide-Range, but they never sound muddy or flabby. Even in the neck position, you can strum away on open chords through an overdriven amp and hear every note ring out clearly.\n\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA Rock and Roll Duet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nThis thick-yet-crystalline tone works beautifully with the snappy, sizzling midrange bite of the traditional Tele bridge pickup, and these complementary voicings make this guitar quite versatile. You have all of your jangle, bite, and squawk in your bridge pickup, and a perfect thick rock tone in your neck position.\n\n\n\nSpeaking of pickup selection, Tele Custom's extra set of tone and volume controls allow you to dial in some extraordinarily cool tones in the middle position-one of the Wildwood Staff's favorite tricks is to roll back the tone all the way on the bridge pickup to get a scorching take on Clapton's \"Woman Tone.\"\n\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThinskin for the Win\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nGiven the storied history of these six-strings, it was an enormous honor to work with Fender to help design a '72 Telecaster Custom for our line of Thin Skins. We believe that the modern Wide Range Humbucking pickup in the neck position captures the essence of the vintage originals with exceptional accuracy, to say nothing of the screaming tones produced by the hand-wound Twisted Tele in the bridge.\n\n\n\nOf course, the lightweight ash bodies come with a thin nitrocellulose finish, just like a Fender from the 1950s. This allows the bodies to \"breathe\" and resonate more freely, giving you fuller, more three-dimensional tone and longer sustain.\n\n\n\nDespite their vintage roots, these Teles are as modern as can be when it comes to feel. The '70s-style D-shaped neck has plenty of shoulder to dig into for big bends, and it is just as comfortable for those who employ a more traditional thumb-in-the-middle left-hand technique as it is for those who wrap their thumbs over the top of the fretboard a la Hendrix. It also sports a modern 9.5\" radius and 6105 frets, so modern players with a taste for vintage mojo will feel right at home.\n\n\n\nWe invite you to experience the magic of 1972 by playing one of these terrific Telecaster Customs. They prove that musical tumult can inspire innovation of the highest order, and we believe that their singular yet versatile voice will motivate you to stretch your practice sessions out for hours on end every time you pick one up. We cannot wait to see what glorious fretboard adventures they inspire you to embark upon.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis Thin Skin '72 Tele is in fantastic shape!

The Hawaiian setting is pretty much the exact midpoint between those tones--Goldilocks Mode engaged! \n\n\n\nHowever, descriptions of frequency response profiles don't really do this instrument justice. It has the power to evoke place, time, and feeling in an almost cinematic way, and it sings like a blues singer of yore. Guitar players have been ripping the pickups out of old National lap steels for decades, and after roughly 2.5 seconds of hearing this serial, you'll understand why! If you're already a lap steel player, this guitar will be a formidable tool, but it's also an exceptional value, so it would make an incredible instrument to learn the trade with, too. Either way, I have no doubt this New Yorker will inspire you endlessly! \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis is a super-clean example of a National Lap Steel!

The rosewood produced a sweet attack that spoke to everyone from Hendrix to SRV!

Your support has allowed our friends at Fender to really break new ground and create something fresh, exciting, and bold. However, given that the concept of a \"Relic-Ready\" finish is relatively new to the world of guitars, we wanted to add some notes to clarify what you should expect from a Relic-Ready instrument. \u003c\/strong\u003e\n\n\n\nRelic-Ready finishes are much, much different than NOS finishes because they only have three or four layers of clear coat. Because the finish is so incredibly thin, Relic-Ready instruments begin the natural relic-ing process the moment they are fully assembled. Since these finishes are designed to wear quickly, sometimes Relic-Readies arrive at our shop having already begun their journey to vintage mojo. So, you can expect things like light dings, small spots where the finish has burned through, light scratching, and checking in the neck pocket. However, you can be assured that your instrument will NOT have any full-body checking from weather, deep scratches, or major dings\/blemishes. As always, if you'd like more information about the condition of each particular serial, please don't hesitate to reach out for an in-hand description.\n\n\n\nWith Relic-Readies, our idea was to allow the player to write their own story into the finish of each guitar. But, sometimes the process of getting the guitar to you adds a little foreword to the finish to help you get started. For more information about all things Relic-Ready, read on!\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRelic-Ready to Rumble\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nOver the years, Wildwood Guitars has sold thousands of relic'd Fender guitars. The incredible response that we've gotten from our Wildwood Tens is proof that most of the guitar-playing world loves instruments that marry modern convenience with vintage look, feel, and sound. We've also learned that there are plenty of pickers out there that like the distressed vintage look, but feel a little strange about playing a guitar that they didn't relic themselves through everyday use. For these guitarists, each ding and scratch is a punctuation mark in the story of their instrument, and they want to be in charge of what happens in the tale of their axe.\n\n\n\nObviously, this is easier said than done. If you want to make an NOS finish look vintage through good 'ol fashioned playwear, you usually have to play it for so long that it actually becomes vintage in the process. You could put your guitar in a trash bag of burned leaves and relic it yourself like one of my coworkers, but your house will smell horrible the moment you bring it inside. Frankly, few people have enough resources, energy, or training to make it look as good as the Fender Custom Shop's builders can.\n\n\n\nSo, these players have been in a pickle until now. How do you make a new guitar look vintage without having to wait thirty years or resort to crazy schemes involving bags of burning leaves? Well, we at Wildwood Guitars are proud to introduce our answer: a new line of Wildwood Tens that we have dubbed \"relic-readies.\"\n\n\n\nThese Custom Shop creations are just like the heavy-relic guitars that have been a shop staple for years-same wood, same electronics, same hardware, and same outstanding build quality-except we snatch them away from Fender before they have a chance to actually do the relic job. The result is a guitar that accumulates wear-and-tear at an exponentially higher rate than normal. So, it'll look like a guitar that's been gigged for thirty years after just a couple birthdays. Finally, YOU can be the one to make your guitar look vintage!\n\n\n\nAfter playing and ogling the first batch of these guitars, we feel confident that this line is easily one of the coolest collaborations in the history of our friendship with Fender's Custom Shop! At Wildwood, we've been doing our best to tell our guitars' stories as faithfully as we can for thirty-four years. Now, we are excited to step aside and give the reins to our exceptional customers. What sort of interesting tales will you carve into these finishes? We can't wait to find out with you!\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Perfect 10\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nYears ago, we approached our friends at the Fender Custom Shop with a proposal: would they build us guitars that combined the mojo of a true-to-vintage reissue with modern handfeel and comfy modern ergonomics?

Though the Stratocaster became a runaway hit after hitmakers like Buddy Holly toted them on stage, Leo Fender's tireless commitment to excellence led him to introduce a number of improvements to the Stratocaster's design. In a quest to cater to players' demands, he introduced a soft V-shaped neck profile, and he started building some of the bodies out of alder. Our Wildwood 10 1957 Stratocasters pay homage to Leo Fender's relentless work ethic by replicating the glories of the original heavenly '57s. We have a wide variety of finishes with various types of relic-ing and lots of neck profiles, so we're sure you'll be able to find a '57 that speaks to you.

A previous owner replaced the tuners with period-correct reproductions, and at some point another owner put aftermarket Grovers or Schallers on it.

I LOVE this guitar! First things first: this guitar is unbelievably acoustically resonant. It's louder than some laminate-bodied acoustics, and that means massive tone when you do plug in. \n\n\n\nTonally, the best comparison I can make is a great vintage SG, but with more airiness, openness, sparkle, and clarity. It has that gut-punch crunch in spades, but it also has a wonderful bouquet of overtones that come together to create a lush, three-dimensional sound. Though it sounds as rich as Scrooge McDuck, it also has superb note separation, allowing you to play six-string chords with lots of gain in the neck position and hear each note clearly. The attack also captures the percussive detail of your pick strike while simultaneously rounding off any harsh edges or spiky frequencies. The attack also has a bit of vintage-style sag, meaning that after the pick strike, the note \"blooms\" forth in a musical, inspiring way. \n\n\n\nThe bridge pickup is about as good as it gets. As Wildwood's resident bridge pickup enthusiast, I keep a ranking of best bridge pickup tones in each category (Filter'tron, P-90, humbucker, etc.) in my head, and this one is near the top of the humbucker heap. It's punchy, snarly, open, and has tons of sparkle to balance out the muscular low-end. As much fun as I had running wild in the bridge position, I found myself in the neck just as much. It has this wonderfully rich yet clear sound that makes lead lines sound as fat and juicy as a hog roasting over an open fire and rhythm parts feel Godzilla-sized.

It definitely makes my list of favorite vintage guitars of all time, that's for sure! It comes from a time when Epiphone was Gibson's \"tester line.\" If a shop wanted to become a Gibson dealer, they had to become an Epiphone dealer first and prove they could sell through their inventory. Once they had sold enough Epiphones, they could begin carrying Gibsons. The Epiphones from this time period are highly sought-after by collectors and players alike, as they were built in the same plant by the same people with the same materials as Gibson. So, this guitar is essentially an ES-335 with mini-hums! \n\n\n\nAnd my oh my, what a glorious combination. Mini-humbuckers still sound meaty like humbuckers, but with all the fat trimmed off. They're sculpted and muscular, with world-beating punching power and jaw-dropping articulation in the attack. They also have an open quality to them, and they're very touch-sensitive--you can really alter the way this guitar sounds with how you attack and squeeze the note, which makes for a very expressive, dynamic playing experience. It feels like this guitar is an extension of your hand! \n\n\n\nThe bridge pickup is a desert island sound for me: robust enough to make chords feel full and robust but tight and focused, with superb bite, snarl, chime, and sparkle. The neck pickup is also one of my favorite sounds. It's fatter and has a broader midrange punch, extended low-end, and sweet, sunny trebles, but it's still remarkably clear with no tubbiness or mud. \n\n\n\nIf you're looking for a spectacular vintage semi-hollow, I think this one will leave you as gobsmacked, flabbergasted, and dazed as me! \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis '65 Sheraton is in fantastic shape!

The bridge pickup stings like a bee and floats like a butterfly with its focused bite beautiful jangle, the middle pickup brings more midrange grunt and gets glassier and smoother, and the neck pickup is righteously thick and chewy. \n\n\n\nIf you're looking for a fantastic example of a sunny-sounding Strat, check this serial out!","brand":"Fender Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52573470490899,"sku":"WWCONFDR65210","price":2999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5824\/5651\/files\/wwconfdr65210_lg1.jpg?v=1763017051"},{"product_id":"2025-gibson-custom-shop-wildwood-spec-1961-les-paul-sg-standard-gloss","title":"2025 Gibson Custom Shop Wildwood Spec 1961 Les Paul SG Standard - Gloss","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis Wildwood Spec SG is in beautiful condition! The frets look fantastic and show virtually no signs of wear, and the finish shows faint signs of normal use. The only slight imperfections to note are a few small marks by the output jack. It comes with its original hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity, too. \n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Wildwood Spec SG: A True Sonic Titan\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nIf it weren't for the Gibson SG, I sincerely doubt I'd be sitting here writing words for all you lovely people of the Wildwoodiverse to read about our Wildwood Spec SGs. Like many guitar nerds, I had no choice but to give my life to rock and roll after I heard the proverbial One Guitar; in my case, it was Angus Young's SG. Once my dad played me Back in Black when I was six, it was all over. It probably had something to do with the riffs (AC\/DC \u003cem\u003edoes\u003c\/em\u003e know a thing or two about songwriting), but the SG's tone and appearance have always spoken to me on an elemental level.\n\n\n\nThough it has plenty of muscle, it sounds less like a bodybuilder and more like a scary dude in a leather jacket picking his teeth with a switchblade. And, it has a sensitive side. Though there's an exciting rawness and attitude to the SG's sound, it never loses its inherent woody warmth. It may be raw, but it has plenty of range. So, in Tommy Iommi's hands, the SG snarls like a hellhound. In Derek Trucks's hands, the SG cries like a female blues singer from the Delta circa 1927. What's the common thread? Both players aim to bottle raw, intense emotion with their playing, and the SG is the perfect instrument for the job.\n\n\n\nBecause the SG wears its heart on its horns, it's a guitar that I love deeply, and the Wildwood Spec version is my personal favorite example of the model. We'll get to tech specs later, but I want to help you understand the deeper reasons why Wildwood Spec SGs are such wonderful instruments, the ones that go beyond fret size and pickup output. The SG is so deeply intertwined with my life and my musical journey that I need to tell part of my own story to properly tell the story of the Wildwood Spec SG. If you just want to hear about the nuts and bolts of these mahogany-bodied monsters, feel free to skip ahead to the second-to-last header. But, it's a compelling story-I promise.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMy Solid Guitar Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nThe SG seems to pull raw, unadulterated, pure music out of people, and that's why I bought one before I moved to Colorado four years ago. At that point, I had mostly given up on music after joint problems made playing nearly impossible. Though my body had recovered, the creative spark was gone. I still loved listening to music, but I didn't really feel any desire to play. I had read a biography of jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins, and one of his favorite pieces of advice for aspiring musicians stuck with me: if you don't hear music in your head, don't pick up your instrument. That seemed reasonable to me, and since I didn't hear anything, I stopped playing. Better to sit in silence than hear myself going through the motions.\n\n\n\nOf course, I missed playing the guitar, but it was a peculiar sort of ache, like an amputee pining for a phantom limb. From time to time, I'd pull my guitar out of the case to see if the magic came back, but it never did. I never stopped wanting it to return, though.\n\n\n\nSo, before I left home for Denver, I decided to make one last effort to summon that spark of creative energy. I figured that if I got myself an awesome guitar, it might at least inspire me to noodle more, and if I noodled more, maybe I'd start to hear notes in my head again. After roughly 2.5 seconds' worth of consideration, I knew the guitar had to be an SG. I had some practical reasons (they're versatile enough to excel in just about any genre, they're lightweight, the neck is comfortable) and some not-so-practical (it has horns, and pointy guitars are cool). But mostly, I was hoping that the SG's raw, direct personality would pull some music out of me.\n\n\n\nIt didn't happen overnight. I decided to learn every Black Sabbath riff in chronological order starting with the eponymous track on their self-titled first record. At first, it was a workmanlike endeavor. I put my fingers where they were supposed to be, and the correct sounds came out of my amplifier at the right times.\n\n\n\nBut, as I worked my way through more tunes on that Pelham Blue SG, I began to remember the elemental joy of making music again. I could feel the guitar pulling the visceral rock and roll energy out of me like a mahogany magnet as I ran through tunes like Into the Void and Behind the Wall of Sleep. By the time I finished up Masters of Reality, I decided to bring my grand quest for ultimate Sabbathian scholarship to a premature end because I was having more fun coming up with my own heavy riffage.\n\n\n\nAfter a few months of basement jamming, I realized that it was silly to keep my SG all to myself. So, I started jamming with people for the first time in years. Those jams quickly turned into band practices, and there was no looking back. I was playing constantly. Though I've since moved back to my first love, bass guitar (and everyone who ever heard me play guitar uttered a collective sigh of relief when I did so), the music has returned to my brain. When I'm not writing about guitars for Wildwood, I'm at band practice. I play in three bands, and I keep threatening to start a fourth.\n\n\n\nWould all of this have happened if I had gotten, say, a Telecaster instead of an SG? Almost certainly, because things don't change you-you change you. I went looking for the music in my head, and that's why I found it. But, things like guitars can be useful tools on journeys through the dark parts of life. I simply chose the SG as my tool. SGs have had a sympathetic resonance with my heartstrings ever since.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLove at First Strum\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nHow perfect would it be if the tool I'm talking about was a Wildwood Spec SG? Alas, life isn't a movie. I didn't play a Wildwood Spec SG until three years after my move when I started working at Wildwood. I distinctly remember plugging in a VOS model with a natural finish, playing a few doodles around the ninth fret with the open A string ringing, and immediately getting choked up.\n\n\n\nThat might seem like a strange response to a couple licks in A major, but (as I've spent the last thousand words telling you) SGs are special to me, and the sounds coming out of the speaker cone at that moment were such a perfect example of the tone that has inspired me for my whole musical life that my emotions overcame me for a moment. It was like stepping into one of my favorite records in real-time. For someone who loves Gibson SGs as much as I do, playing a Wildwood Spec edition is truly a magical experience.\n\n\n\nWhen I did a write-up on that guitar for the website, I believe I said that it was \"the platonic ideal of an SG.\" Since then, dozens of Wildwood Spec SGs have passed through my hands, and I am pleased to say that my initial impression is still correct. Though each guitar has had a distinctive personality, they all sounded iconic in their own way and played like butter.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Source of the Sonic Sauce\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nSo, why do so many inspiring sounds come out of Wildwood Spec SGs so consistently? The answer is rather simple: the wizards and warlocks at the Gibson Custom Shop find the best raw materials they can and assemble them with incredible skill, care, and precision. They start with a resonant slab of mahogany, which automatically gives the guitar a woody, warm, midrange-forward voice while also enhancing responsiveness. Then, they attach a mahogany neck to the body using hide glue.\n\n\n\nMaking instruments with hide glue is an old-world manufacturing process that requires incredible skill and patience, but it pays incredible dividends for the instrument's voice. Because it's a protein-based adhesive, it promotes the greatest possible amount of energy transfer between pieces of wood. That gives the guitar excellent resonance and sustain. After slapping on a sweet-sounding rosewood fretboard with more hide glue, the skeleton is complete.\n\n\n\nTo complete the package, our friends drop in a couple Wildwood Spec Custombuckers, which sound magnificent. Gibson based them off some of our favorite old PAFs, and they did a bang-up job of recreating that fabled vintage magic. The highs sing, the mids are punchy, and the lows are warm and woody, and overall they are quite dynamic and expressive.\n\n\n\nThe Wildwood Spec SG is a simple guitar built to perfection by some of the most skilled craftsmen in the world, and that's why they sound good enough to make a grown man get emotional in the middle of a loud, frenetic guitar store. The entire Wildwood team is proud to showcase them for all you Wildwoodians traversing the Wildwoodiverse, and I hope they bring you as much joy as they bring me.","brand":"Gibson Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52890453377299,"sku":"WWCONGB500221","price":4199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5824\/5651\/files\/wwcongb500221_lg1.jpg?v=1767873955"},{"product_id":"2020-fender-custom-shop-wildwood-10-1957-stratocaster-heavy-relic","title":"2020 Fender Custom Shop Wildwood 10 1957 Stratocaster - Heavy Relic","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThis Wildwood 10 '57 Strat is in minty-fresh condition!

They were enthused about the idea, and the Wildwood 10 was born. Thanks to the Custom Shop's incredible craftsmanship and artistry, these guitars look gorgeous, sound killer, and play like butter.\n\n\n\nEach of these Custom Shop creations features a thin fifties-style nitrocellulose finish, which allows the voice of the resonant hand-selected tonewoods to shine through.

Their modern 10\" radius is suitable for a wide variety of styles and techniques, and their 6105 narrow-tall frets allow you to expend less energy with your left hand, especially when bending strings. To top it all off, they come with a limited edition Dealer Select Wildwood 10 hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFun Times in '57\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nNineteen fifty-seven was a banner year for the Fender Stratocaster. Though the Stratocaster became a runaway hit after hitmakers like Buddy Holly toted them on stage, Leo Fender's tireless commitment to excellence led him to introduce a number of improvements to the Stratocaster's design. In a quest to cater to players' demands, he introduced a soft V-shaped neck profile, and he started building some of the bodies out of alder. Our Wildwood 10 1957 Stratocasters pay homage to Leo Fender's relentless work ethic by replicating the glories of the original heavenly '57s. We have a wide variety of finishes with various types of relic-ing and lots of neck profiles, so we're sure you'll be able to find a '57 that speaks to you.

Here's a quick rundown of what makes them tick. They're slightly underwound, which gives them exceptional dynamic response and touch sensitivity. You can really alter your sound based on how hard you're hitting, which makes for a wonderfully expressive playing experience. However, they are wound with thicker wire like Fender did in the sixties, which gives them a little more power and guts despite being underwound. As a result, their voice is similar to vintage Strat pickups we love with lots of bell-like chime and vocal response, but with a little extra warmth and muscle. \n\n\n\nAlthough they are not exactly the same as a real vintage example, we think they capture the magic sound of a great vintage Strat, giving you access to the iconic sound that shaped countless classic records. We have no doubt they will make your heartstrings resonate!","brand":"Fender Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52890454753555,"sku":"WWFDR107753","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5824\/5651\/files\/wwfdr107753_lg1.jpg?v=1767873957"},{"product_id":"2022-dunable-minotaur","title":"2022 Dunable Minotaur","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSonic Evaluation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nI was maybe having a little too much fun playing this Dunable Minotaur, because after I got done playing it far too loudly for anyone to accomplish any work, then let a sustained chord ring out for way too long, my coworker Greg walked by my office and said \"Slow down there, Hüsker Dön't.\" Whatever. You can drive-by roast me all you want using the names of eighties hardcore bands, and I won't care as long as I have this thing in my hands, and I Hüsker Will keep playing it loudly on my lunch breaks, because I'd say it approaches double-humbucker perfection.\n\n\n\nBefore we get into the pickups, I do have to mention its impressive acoustic resonance. It's open, loud and three-dimensional, and you can hear its personality with no electricity involved. Through an amp, the magic comes from the way the pickups complement one another. The bridge pickup is pure rock and roll brutality, with a beautiful snarl in the midrange, wonderfully open, sparkly highs, and muscular low-end that practically forces your facial muscles to contract into a stank face when you hit the low E. Through a crunchy amp, it's rhythm guitar nirvana, and it works beautifully for stinging, sizzling leads, too. \n\n\n\nBy contrast, the neck pickup is thick, warm, and righteously smooth. The midrange is broad and vocal, the lows are deep and woody, and the highs are glassy and sweet.

Everything works perfect and it sounds great. No cosmetic issues to report. Includes the original box and packing supplies.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVintage Tone... Reimagined!\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nGibson is proud to introduce the new Dual Falcon 2x10 Combo amplifier. It pays homage to Gibson's legendary past as one of the world's first manufacturers of electric guitar amplifiers. The Dual Falcon resurrects the Gibson amp icon and delivers vintage tone, reimagined in an upgraded 2 Channel rendering with valuable new features and all the original magic intact, and then some. Perfect tonal enhancements update the sound and feel, with a wider, more usable range on the sparse controls, while lush traditional spring Reverb adds dimension and broadens stylistic horizons. The original smooth-sounding Tremolo adds further vibe while selectable output power options expand the versatility with options of Full, Half, or Low power modes per channel. In addition, a buffered series Effects Loop opens up more processing options to complete the outfitting for performance applications. These updates allow the new Dual Falcon to soar even higher above the most prized vintage Gibson examples.\n\n\n\nWhile inspired by the Gibson Falcon amps from the 1960s, this all-new design from renowned amp pioneer Randall Smith and the MESA\/Boogie Design Team is handcrafted in Petaluma, California, and sets a new bar in low-power tone. The Dual Falcon 2x10 Combo stands apart from its predecessors due to the constructional upgrades and tonal improvements unearthed over Randall's five decades of tube amp design experience and performance-pushing ideology that deliver nothing less than astonishing results. Players of all generations and musical genres will appreciate the Dual Falcon's beyond-vintage tone, enhanced dynamics, and well-behaved low end while enjoying the added flexibility in stylistic control and the width that reverb adds to the soundscape. The three selectable power options allow fine-tuning of the clip threshold and volume level of each channel independently while the pair of 10\" Jensen Blackbird 40 Alnico speakers reproduce every ounce of this mojo perfectly, creating the ultimate vintage-voiced 2x10\" Combo.\n\n\n\nThe Dual Falcon features two-channel flexibility with a focus on great tone and ease of use. The ultra-simple, pure signal path design of each channel has controls consisting of Volume, Tone, and foot-switchable Reverb, plus foot-switchable Tremolo with global Speed and Depth controls, which add dimensionality and motion and immensely increase the amp's enjoyment and usefulness over a wide range of musical styles. Players in the know have long understood that one of the secrets to great overdriven tone is power amp overdrive, and lower-powered amps are key to turning up and achieving that cranked power amp sound without overwhelming volume levels. For those who demand touch sensitivity and dynamic nuance at the low to medium end of the gain spectrum and crave the classic \"controlled implosion\" at its farthest reaches, the cathodyne driver feeding a pair of 6L6 power tubes (or optional, smaller 6V6s with no mods) performs above and beyond expectations.\n\n\n\nSonically and physically, the Dual Falcon 2x10 Combo roams confidently between nest and venue, providing instant access to warm cleans and purring overdrive across the two foot-switchable channels with simple pairs of Volume and Tone controls, all at perfect power levels everyone can appreciate and enjoy. Players can select between Full, Half, or Low (15, 6, or 2-Watts) power modes of patented Multi-Watt, 6L6, Pure Class A Power, or 12, 5, or 1-Watt(s) with optional 6V6 Power Tubes, providing three levels of expressive, vintage Gibson tone and feel. This power flexibility enables even more ways to transition in and out of clip seamlessly and musically, making the Dual Falcon an ideal amp for club gigs, home practice, and recording purposes. With its modern refinements, high-end performance, and boutique construction, this bona fide bird can't wait to elevate Gibson amplifiers to the stature they've always deserved, right alongside Gibson's finest stringed instruments.\n\n\n\n• Handcrafted in Petaluma, California\n\n• All-Tube Amplifier: 2x 6L6 Power Tubes (optional 2x 6V6) \/ 4x 12AX7 Preamp Tubes\n\n• Pure Class A Power\n\n• Patented Multi-Watt Power, featuring Duo-Class wiring, providing power choices of FULL power (approx. 15 Watts) via 2x 6L6 Push-Pull,\n\nClass A, Pentode; HALF power (approx. 6 Watts) via 2x 6L6 Push-Pull, Class A, Triode; or LOW power (approx. 2 Watts) via 1x 6L6 Single-Ended,\n\nClass A, Pentode \/ (Approx. 12 Watts, 5 Watts, and 1 Watt (respectively) with optional 6V6 Power Tubes)\n\n• Cathode Biased, Maintenance-Free\n\n• Normal or Low (Cleaner) Inputs\n\n• Two Channel Flexibility - Channel Features: Independent Volume, Tone, and Reverb Controls\n\n• Global Tremolo with Depth \u0026amp; Frequency (Speed) Controls\n\n• Spring Reverb \u0026amp; Tremolo are tube-driven and footswitchable\n\n• Buffered, Series Effects Loop\n\n• Monitor (Slave) Output - Fixed Attenuated from the Speaker Output\n\n• Polished Stainless Steel Control Faceplate\n\n• Aluminum Chassis\n\n• 3 Button Footswitch Included (Channel 1\/2, Reverb \u0026amp; Tremolo)\n\n• Fitted Slipcover Included\n\n• 2x 10\" Jensen Blackbird 40 Alnico Speakers\n\n• Cream Bronco Vinyl with Oxblood Grille","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52890463043859,"sku":"WW1.DF20.CO.J10","price":1690.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5824\/5651\/files\/dual-falcon-20-casters_lg1.jpg?v=1784321004"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5824\/5651\/collections\/image_2-1_6bae1fcb-839f-46a7-9767-22c3b8932749.png?v=1754974657","url":"https:\/\/wildwoodguitars.com\/collections\/used-all.oembed?page=6","provider":"Wildwood Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
