Sorted Custom Shop Gibson/Fender or Gretsch or equivalent

AirForceGaz

Having sold some gear I have a budget of £3k and I'm looking for a custom shop guitar or a player grade vintage one. I can sell more guitars to take me over the £3.5k mark if required.

Not set on a specific model but really am after a guitar that feels like a vintage one so nothing brand new or NOS.

Keen on models such as:

Les Paul Juniors
Duo Jets
Jazzmasters
Gold tops
SG's
ES/Archtops

So pretty open to models but again must have that nice worn in feel to the guitar, really after the 50's/60's classic models.

Based in the West Midlands and would only collect so would travel/meet up within a reasonable distance.

Let me know what you have.

Thanks.

Might not be your thing but I have a very classically 50s looking custom shop 57 strat with a soft v neck and hand wound pickups?

I’m trying to not get a Strat as already have two but I’m a sucker for sunburnt 50’s strats! I’m gonna hold off if I can for strats as already seen a few that have tempted me but need to remain vaguely disciplined.

Bump with an increase in budget, still on the lookout for that special one so do get in touch if you want to help me spend my money.

Another strat now but very special…sonic blue relic with v dark rosewood?

I’m looking to move on my guitar guitar dealer run custom shop Les Paul, it’s a late 50’s reissue with flame maple top. Give me a shout if interested and I can ping you some pictures.

Thanks for everyone who got in touch and through this fine forum I bought an awesome 68 Gibson sg junior for those who are interested. Cheers guys.
