Fender introduced the Precision Bass (P-Bass) in 1951. The P-Bass was the first electric bass and was a smash hit. The Precision bass included a Slab double cut away ash body, a single coil pickup, one piece 34" neck (Maple). The early Pbass also featured large Kluson tuning machines heads. These were later replaced by conventional geared tuning machines. In 1957 the pickup was upgraded to a split double coil pickup and a wider head stock was added. |

Weissenborn or H. Weissenborn is a brand of lap slide guitar manufactured by Hermann Weissenborn in Los Angeles in the 1920s and 1930s. These instruments are now highly sought after, and form the base for most non-resonator acoustic lap steel guitars currently produced. It is estimated that fewer than 5000 original instruments were produced, and unknown how many now survive.

Released in 1962, the Jaguar was based on the Jazzmaster, with the same "offset waist" body and "floating tremolo" system. Unlike the Jazzmaster, the Jaguar was fitted with a shorter 24-inch scale, 22-fret neck (the first Fender guitar to have 22 frets) and featured smaller single-coil pickups with notched side plates that improved RF shielding, making the Jaguar less prone to interference than the more popular Stratocaster and Telecaster. |

Most amp enthusiasts know the story: Jim Marshall ran a London music store in an era (the early 1960's) when demand for Fender amps far outstripped supply, and, in an effort to copy the Bassman, inadvertently invented the sound of hard rock, and the look of the amp stack. While Marshall collectors can spend a lifetime tracking down the hundreds of species, the cornerstone pieces are; The JTM45 head; The "Small box" 50w; the 100w Super Bass/ Super Lead "Plexis". Legendary (and scarce) combos include "The Bluesbreaker" and "The 18-watt". Marshall's early "Glory Days" came to a gradual close around 1973, with the advent of printed circuit boards.
Among British rock amps, Marshalls are, arguably, the easiest to live with, in terms of voltage compatibility, ease of repair, and ready availability of parts, tubes, and knowledgeable technicians. The Hollywood Vintage Collection is proud to house a STUNNING selection of early Marshall heads. |

Gibson had made forays into radical body shapes (the Flying V and Explorer) in the 1950s, but they failed to meet expectations. The president of Gibson, Ted McCarty, hired car designer Ray Dietrich to design a guitar that would have popular appeal. Under Dietrich, the Firebird took on the lines of mid-50s car tailfins. Dietrich took the Explorer design and rounded the edges. The most unusual aspect is that the guitar is "backward" in that the right-hand (treble) horn of the body is longer than the other. Thus, the original Firebirds were unofficially referred to as "reverse". The Firebird is the first Gibson solid-body to use neck-through construction, wherein the neck extended to the tail end of the body. The neck itself is made up of five plies of mahogany interspersed with four narrow strips of walnut for added strength. Other features were reverse headstock (with the tuners on the treble side), "banjo" tuning keys, and mini-humbucking pickups. The Firebird line went on sale in mid-1963 with four models distinguished by pickup and tailpiece configurations. Unlike the Les Paul and SG line, which used the terms "Junior", "Special", "Standard" and "Custom", the Firebird used the Roman numerals "I", "III" , "V" and "VII". |

Gibson pioneered electric guitar in the 1930's, and, consequently, amplifiers, as well. During the mid-1940's, amplifier development was put on war hold. By 1950, Gibson was a MAJOR amp manufacturer, with a philosophy of building warmer, mellower, less compressed amplifiers than their competition, you-know-who. By the mid 1960's, Gibson had lost the amp war, but, from 1947 through the late '60's, the Kalamazoo plant turned out a wide array of models; ranging from little, metal-tubed blues screamers to large, powerful, bells-and-whistles-laden jazz amps. Demand and prices for Gibson amps is increasing, even in today's challenging market. |

Watkins/WEM is England's original manufacturer of amplifiers, whose 1954 Westminster guitar amp was five years ahead of Vox, and a full decade prior to Marshall's debut. It's easier to
list early English rockers whose first amp WASN'T a Watkins, than to name the countless British Invasion musicians who first gigged on Westminster, Scout, and the more famous Dominator combo amps. The Watkins Copicat Tape Echo is a milestone product, with a sound which some enthusiasts still prefer to that of any other similar unit ever made. Watkins/WEM amps are not common in the United States, outside of recording studios, and in the collections of amp tone aficianados. The aggressive, snarling guitar sounds of Watkins combo amps are belied by these small units' kitschy, almost cute aesthetics |

The Höfner company was founded by luthier Karl Höfner in the city of Schönbach in Germany in 1887, and soon became the largest manufacturer of string instruments in the country. His sons Josef and Walter joined the company around 1920, and began spreading the brand's reputation worldwide. The company suffered some upheavals during and after World War II, but survived and continued to thrive. The company built new factories in Bubenreuth in 1950.
