Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's Faded

Honeyburst · 9.2 lbs · Complete Case Candy

A beautiful 2022 Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's Faded in Honeyburst, weighing 9.2 lbs. The Faded finish lets the maple top and wood grain do the talking, while the traditional 50's neck profile gives it the feel and authority people buy a Les Paul for. There is some honest pick wear by the strings from being played, but other than that it is in great shape. Includes the original Gibson hard case, all case candy, the original truss rod cover and an extra set of strings.

Fernandes FST-50

Aged Olympic White · Maple Neck · Exceptionally Early Example

One of the earliest Fernandes FST-50s you are likely to encounter. Built in Japan in 1977, this is an honest, naturally aged example with its original pickups, electronics, bridge, tuners and plastics still intact. The only non-original part is the switch tip. Professionally set up and ready to play.

Ornetts GM5RC

Honey Burst Sunburst · High End Guitars, Nagano

An extraordinarily rare instrument — Ornetts guitars were made by High End Guitars in Nagano, Japan for only a few short years. This example appears unplayed, as if it spent its entire life in the case. The figured maple top is stunning, the neck is perfect, and the unique heel-access truss rod makes setup effortless. You won't find many of these anywhere — including Japan.

Fender Telecaster CIJ

The B-Bender Mystery · One-Off Custom Build

Some guitars come with a story. This one comes with a mystery. It arrived in an original Fender B-Bender Telecaster case, complete with B-Bender case candy and documentation — but the guitar itself has no B-Bender. What it does have is a custom-made pickguard, a matching strap, and all the hallmarks of a one-off special build that somehow ended up with the wrong paperwork. Almost entirely unplayed — a true case queen. Whether Fender built it as a custom, swapped it at the factory, or something stranger happened, nobody knows. That's part of what you're buying.

Navigator N-LP 480LTD

Lemonburst · Player's Grade · Genuine Navigator Case

Navigator stopped production in July 2025. That's not a sales pitch — it's a fact that changes the math on every Navigator still in circulation. What was already one of Japan's most coveted domestic guitar lines is now a closed chapter, and the market is only beginning to catch up to what that means. This 2009 N-LP 480LTD is the real thing: a true '59-spec Les Paul built by ESP's finest luthiers, in a lemonburst that glows like amber held up to the light. The buckle rash and dings tell you this guitar has been somewhere — and guitars that get played this hard tend to open up in ways that case queens never do. At 8.8 lbs it has the weight and density that serious players associate with sustain and authority. Comes in its genuine Navigator hard case. These were always rare. Now they're rarer.

Moon Custom Stratocaster

Violin Burst · Custom Relic · Brass Nut

Moon Guitars out of Tokyo has been quietly building some of Japan's finest custom instruments for decades — known to insiders, unknown to everyone else, which is exactly how the best things tend to work. This custom Stratocaster arrives in a violin burst that looks like it was pulled from a 1960s jazz club — warm amber bleeding into deep amber-brown edges, the kind of finish that makes you want to play sitting down under a single bulb. The relic work is the real thing: not factory-distressed, not artificial, but a true custom aged finish that tells a story. At 7.1 lbs it hangs perfectly, the brass nut adds a warmth and sustain to open strings that synthetic nuts simply can't touch, and it plays with the effortless fluidity you expect from a Japanese custom shop instrument. This is a guitar for someone who knows exactly what they're looking at.

Edwards SG

Heritage Cherry · Seymour Duncan P-Rails · Excellent

Edwards is ESP's mid-tier domestic Japanese line — priced below Navigator, built above almost everything else on the market. This 2002 SG in heritage cherry is the kind of guitar that makes you question every assumption you had about what a budget SG should be. But the real conversation starter is what's inside: a full set of Seymour Duncan P-Rails, arguably the most versatile pickup configuration ever put into a single guitar. Single coil, P-90, humbucker — all three voices, per pickup, via a push-pull. You're not choosing between tones, you're choosing between guitars. At 7 lbs it's light enough to wear for hours, it's in excellent shape with very little wear, and it comes with its ESP gig bag. This one is for the player who refuses to be put in a box.

2011 · Made in Japan · FujiGen · History Guitars · Heritage Wood

History Les Paul Heritage Wood

Sunburst · Flame Maple Top · Ancient Great Lakes Tonewood

The Heritage Wood stamp on the back of this headstock is a designation most players will walk right past — and serious collectors will stop cold for. The tonewoods in this guitar were sourced from ancient logs recovered from the Great Lakes, some of them hundreds of years old, already dried and aged beyond what any commercial supplier could dream of offering. Wood that old resonates differently. It sings at frequencies freshly milled timber simply cannot access. FujiGen built this 2011 Les Paul exclusively for a single Japanese retailer — never exported, never mass-marketed — and finished it in a sunburst over a stunning flame maple top that catches light like amber. At 7.6 lbs it sits in the sweetest weight range for a Les Paul: substantial enough for sustain, light enough to play all night without thinking about it. This is what it feels like when the wood, the builder, and the spec all arrive at the same place at the same time.
