 In this segment:

  •  We get to check out an early-50s Gibson ES-175 Electric Archtop which features the original specs, including a single P90 pickup in the neck position. Later models featured a humbucking pickup.
  • The next guitar was an original Epiphone Model 4 roundhole acoustic archtop. As described in the video, this is one of the oldest instruments to be featured in this event. Check out how they determine its authenticity..ONLY PROFESSIONALS!!
  • Another guitar featured is a relatively new model in the vintage market, an original Kramer guitar. But what makes this guitar special is the one-off paint job done by San Francisco artist, Mark Erickson.

In it, an enthusistic participant is touting a plaid painted Blues Saraceno guitar. We stumbled across one that looks a lot like it on You Tube. It’s Blues himself, wailing on one back in 1995 at the NAMM show. – Check it out!
