It’s slightly cheaper than the ‘73 Jazz I bought from them last August too, but I suppose that’s down to the guard. It would be interesting to know if there are holes under the guard for the tug bar in the earlier position. Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin_lindsay Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 It's done the rounds over the past few years - Paul Turner (Jamiroquai) had it for a while, it then was loaned to Brinsley Forde (Aswad), then on to Rob Harris (Jamiroquai). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Looks like Essex recording studios bought the entwistle 72 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186347875698?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=I6kQUce0SWq&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=1wDkd4CjTIi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he/she/they collect vintage guitars “for the shop” without real intention of selling, so super inflate the prices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as I’ve known them their prices have been unrealistic, perhaps it’s another way to advertise their studio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst vintage fenders are scarce and there is demand, there are enough sellers to make cornering the market difficult. To move the market they need to be close to a monopoly and this isn't a monopoly at the moment. I'd like to be able to buy enough to move a market though.

It’s early for a matching headstock, and for a white guard. Jay Rosen is reputable so that looks a very rare beast indeed. Priced sensibly, considering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
