Schnozzalee Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) Ivor Mairants of London 17" Archtop Jazz Guitar A special edition made by Peerless Est. 1970 in South Korea (who no longer export), for Ivor Mairants of London, who were the go to shop for Archtop Jazz Guitars for 61 years (now closed). I've owned over 100 guitars and basses due to a misspent youth where I should have been playing, but I can honestly say that this is the best looking guitar/bass that I've owned - It really is a work of art. All stock and as new w/ D'Addario flatwound 12s. Specifications: Body: 17" Laminated Flamed Maple w/ Solid Flamed Maple Archtop Finish: Honeyburst Gloss Neck: Maple w/ D'Aquisto Headstock Nut: Bone Fingerboard: Rosewood w/ Aged White, Black & Abalone Binding Frets: 20 Scale: 25.5" Pickups: Underwound Alnico V '57 Classic Humbucker Hardware: Gold Grover Imperials Incl. Floating Rosewood Bridge & Tailpiece Case: Plush Fitted Hardshell Pictures: https://i.imgur.com/nJ5LzU7.jpg https://i.imgur.com/iQ0vocO.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Zn4lqO9.jpg https://i.imgur.com/zNQwQW4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/6Caa7MC.jpg https://i.imgur.com/kD65SvF.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Mh5Ztmw.jpg £775 cash on collection from Carlisle, Cumbria, or bank transfer plus £25 P&P for UK Mainland only.

TheGreek Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Though the shop closed just before Xmas they still have an online presence. I bought some pickups from them (at a very good price) recently. Good service too - notified me the day the pickups were being sent out.

Schnozzalee Posted February 13, 2023 Author Share Posted February 13, 2023 Thank you - Sadly, the shop closed in 2019 (I think the guitar is from 2013), but the online outlet is somewhere in Yorkshire. https://i.imgur.com/PcR26kf.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
