A brand new Builder Edition 814ce LTD model just came in, and it sounds and looks amazing. The main highlight is the Adirondack spruce top paired with the Macassar Ebony back and sides, all tied together with this shaded edgeburst top. New next generation inside specs elevate this model to new heights, with a redesigned neck joint, bracing and electronics.

Just arrived: 1967 Gibson ES-330. At some point this ES-330 was modded for a set of humbuckers, but we decided to put the original P-90’s back in place, and this one came back to life! It sounds killer with a P-90 bite and growl that only a fully hollow thinline archtop can offer. Interested? Reach out to our Soho shop for more info on price/specs.

The rarest of the rare. A standard 1959 Gibson Les Paul is one of the most coveted instruments ever made. Of the roughly 650 that were made by Gibson that year, it is likely that fewer than 4 were made to be LEFTY which makes this guitar a true unicorn to the vintage guitar collector. This Les Paul has only had two owners in its 67 years of life. This ‘59 Les Paul has all of the unmistakable characteristics of a “Burst” such as the flame maple top, true PAF humbuckers, and the legendary tone. For more information on price and specs please visit our website, a link can be found in our bio.

Here we have a beautiful  814ce Next Gen! This guitar features everything players love about the Taylor 814ce aesthetic, while reimagining the internal design for a brand new experience. All of Taylor’s Next Gen models feature the innovative “Action Control Neck” which makes neck angle adjustments a breeze. The V-class bracing remains, however the Next Gen models feature scalloped V-class bracing for increased warmth and power. The last addition is the Taylor designed under saddle pickup system called the “Claria System”. It showcases the familiar undersaddle piezo workability coupled with a Taylor designed preamp to tackle some of the harsher frequencies sometimes associated with piezo systems. Come in to try the future of Taylor guitars today!
