 The Gretsch Guitar has a long and wonderful history going back more than 100 years. The Gretsch story begins in 1883 when Friedrich Gretsch started up a small musical instrument shop in Brooklyn New York, where they made banjos, drums and tambourines. Unfortunately Frederich wouldn&#8217;t get to see his company reach the peak [...]]]></description>

Since I primarily collect amps by Fender, and [...]]]></description>

Vintage Gibson guitar identification is easy if you know what to look for. Serial numbers are not always the complete answer. Better to look for a combo of serial numbers, factory order numbers and any design features specific to the time.
Factory Order Numbers (FON&#8217;s) were used by Gibson to track batches of instruments [...]]]></description>

All Martin guitars since 1898 (except solidbody electrics from the 1970s, basses, and tiples) are numbered in consecutive order. Ukuleles do not have serial numbers.

Anyone who&#8217;s ever heard a Jimi Hendrix solo knows that guitars can produce fantastic sounds, and anyone who&#8217;s ever ogled the curves of a Fender Stratocaster will tell you they&#8217;re mighty stylish as well.

Introduction.
For most collectors, pre-CBS (pre-1966) Fender vintage guitars and amps are the desirable ones. Although CBS purchased Fender (officially) on January 3rd 1965, it took some time till the guitars changed (though by mid 1964, six months before CBS bought Fender, things were already &#8220;on the way down&#8221;). By the end of 1965, the general [...]]]></description>
