Vintage Guitar Outlet Blog

Guitar man asked:


I have had a variety of appraisals on this original guitar I have owned for 49 years. I have the original tweed amp (Champ) and the original case. It is valuable, I know that. But, I can’t seem to find a venue to sell this on. When I go to online stores, they are all selling new “vintage” guitars for a couple thousand dollars. This, I have been told, is worth far more than that. Anyone have ideas OTHER than Ebay? Thanks.

I am looking to buy a new guitar and really like the acoustic guitar they used in Instant Star season 1. It is an epiphone in vintage sunburst but if anyone knows the model name let my no… Also I would like to know what model of fender telecaster they used.
Thx

Which one will give me a nicer ‘vintage’ rock sound and is basically the better guitar-Fender Lite Ash Telecaster made in Korea, or Fender Telecaster Standard made in Mexico. I know they’re not American so wont be TOTR but cant afford the American =[
Any help would be much appreciated.

I’m about to spend around 500 bucks or so on a guitar and have decided on a Telecaster — but which one?

I play rhythm guitar in a group that plays a little bit of everything – classic rock, alternative, even a little country.

I have a shot at getting an ’06 MIK Lite Ash with the following description: Has all new vintage American Parts and Electronics with exception of bridge plate/saddles. 250K CTS pots and 4-Way Fender switching, (Bridge, Neck/Bridge series, Neck, Neck/Bridge Parallel). Custom Made Translucent Pearl Pickguard by Pickguardian. Nek Pup is Rickenbacker style Filertron, bridge is 60′s Alnico Hot 9.4K Repro. Killer Sound. Has Fender Vintage Tuners and Round vintage Trees. Comes with kit bag.

Or … I could go for a new Nashville Tele … because I like all the tone possibilities that open up with that extra pickup. I’ve read that if you have to go up on stage with only one guitar, this is the one.

Thoughts? Which way would you go?
