Reunion Blues Vintage Guitars Road Show – Part 3

Have you seen the videos? Check out Part 3, also posted for your viewing pleasure on the Premier Guitar Magazine web site.

In the third segment of Reunion Blues’ Vintage Guitars Road Show, the show hits up Bananas at Large in California. Highlights include:

  • A very rough ’69 Jazz Bass with so many modifications – including removal of the binding, and the owner’s name and SSN etched into the hardware – the appraisers get a little upset. Still, the bass’ value will surprise you.
  • The single prototype of Fender’s Gold Custom Shop Strat. There was a limited run of 100, which was commissioned for NAMM’s 100th anniversary in 2001.
  • Near-perfect 1961 SG-style Les Paul Jr.
