Vega / D100F / 1946 / Sunburst / Stringed Instrument
|
Vega were at the forefront of mandolin builders in the 1920’s and 1930’s, and amongst the earliest builders to experiment with electrification, employing some cutting edge features. This example features Vega’s trademark two-point shape, a great looking single coil pickup, and Bakelite tone and volume knobs, all of which add up to a very cool, classy looking instrument. Unplugged it sounds bright and resonant, and surprisingly loud despite the weight of the pickup and electronics. Plugged in the tone is full and ringing, and really cuts through. The instrument is in excellent condition, with an easy playing neck, and comes in a non original hard case.
Glenns Guitars, UK 
Welcome to Glenn's Guitars here on Vintage & Rare. After many years in the industry, and having been fortunate enough to have worked in Hanks and The Acoustic Centre - probably London's two foremost acoustic guitar shops - I decided to do my own thing.
I have a passion for used and vintage acoustic guitars; nearly new second hand guitars because they can represent a bargain compared to the price of a new guitar, older and vintage guitars because they tend to have more character and can often become an investment.
You will notice when viewing my stock list my taste in guitars, as I only sell guitars that I genuinely like - and there are certain brands noticeable by their absence. I am a huge fan of older Gibson, Martin and Guild acoustics, but also more boutique brands such as Lowden and Collings.
I will consider part exchange if it makes your desired guitar a little easier to afford. I also offer a guitar finding service, if there's something specific you're looking for.
If you are happy to buy over the internet, I will send you as many high resolution photos and as much information about the guitar you're interested in as I can. If you can get to me - I'm based in Enfield, only 30 minutes from London Liverpool Street Station - you can always make an appointment with me and come and try some of the guitars out first.
I accept payment by Paypal, bank transfer, cheque and of course cash.
