Angelo Galliano Concert Guitar
...Most Galiano guitars are labeled "A. Galiano". This
instrument is a rare example whose label gives the first name
rather than just an initial and uses the (double-L)
Italian spelling: Galliano. It was probably made by
Antonio Cerrito before 1920. Spruce top, birch sides and back
with faux-rosewood finish. Top is maple bound. Excellent
original condition. Repaired center top seam separation and
repaired crack next to treble side of the fingerboard (not
visible). 13 3/4" lower bout, 25 1/2" scale and a surprisingly
modern neck width of 1 11/16". Action is very close and
comfortable. This is a wonderful sounding little gem that is fun
to play and is in way better than average condition! Comes with
recent chipboard case. $1295.00

Harmony 1311 Brilliant Cutaway, circa 1958
... Grand Auditorium size, maple sides and back, solid
spruce top. This was Harmony's top-of-the-line acoustic archtop
and sold for more than $100 in '58. Ours has been recently
refretted and has been fitted with a Dan Armstrong pickup,

Stella Model 507DN Grand Concert
Double Neck , circa 1910 ......Grand
concert size body with a standard six string neck and a second
fretless neck with six sub-bass strings. Red spruce top, birch
sides and back with faux rosewood finish. Several repaired
cracks to the top and back. Original finish throughout. The six
sub-bass strings on second neck act as drones, vibrating
sympathetically and creating a haunting, almost mystical sound
unlike any other guitar I have played. Excellent action and
playability. Includes hard-shell case. This is truly a remarkable instrument - and such
fun to play! Amaze your family and friends! Amaze yourself!!

action and a huge sound! Currently set up exactly the way Paul
had it when he played it on the road! Comes with new Hard-shell

Sovereign Grand Concert Guitar, circa 1925
..A rare high-end Oscar Schmidt model, this guitar is in
exceptionally fine original condition. Koa body with
"mother-of-toilet-seat" (faux mother-of-pearl) fingerboard
and matching pearloid rosette and purfling front and back.
Lower bout width is just over 14 3/4", scale length is 26
1/2", nut width is 1 7/8". This guitar is 100% crack free
with a finish that is all original - no touch-ups or
over-spray. Original tuning machines are in as new
condition. With the exception of the ebony bridge, which is
a faithful reproduction of the original but with a
compensated bone saddle, this instrument is all original.
The action is excellent and the bone saddle has a
respectable height. Headstock has embossed "Sovereign"
logo. This is an exceptionally good
looking, excellent sounding guitar, perfect for playing
finger-style blues and rags, and equally suited for a wide
range of other musical styles, too! Comes with new
hard-shell case. $2995.00
