    Amazing how this guitar is almost 100 years old. It's so beautiful, I could only imagine what it has seen through out the years. I dare say that should belong in a museum.

    "This pre-dates the truss rod"...
    This also pre-dates the Nazi Party, this is older than John Paul II and Charles Bukowski.
    When the Dave Brubeck Quartet was formed (1951), this guitar was already 30 years old!
    This is really old, man!

    Just imagine - a soon to be antique that you can not only look at and admire but also make music on (OK, Stradivarius and other violins, violas, etc are much older - but still...). History and beauty combined.

  • @Wizardofgosz
    @Wizardofgosz 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    One of the inflation calculators I use says $150 in 1919 is about $2,113.88 now. So that's not unreasonable for a good guitar.

  • @CIRCLEOFTONE
    @CIRCLEOFTONE 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Stunning! Just a slightly worry. Those strings look way too heavy for a neck with no truss rod. I'd swap them out for something with less tension.

  • @MrErdner
    @MrErdner 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That would be a great guitar for Gibson to recreate. Imagine this with a good undersaddle transducer with controls hidden in the sound hole. I think a reissue of this would sell pretty well.

  • @MrStranger1944
    @MrStranger1944 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Oh my Buddha... Is this guitar of the day or guitar of the year?! For a guitar made in 1919 that looks like it is in great condition!

  • @hammerhead2325
    @hammerhead2325 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    F'n awesome. So original in design. One thing I do when evaluating an acoustic guitar is to hold the guitar by the neck and tap the bridge. That is a telling sign as to how the guitar is going to resonate and respond to play.

    A few years ago, I saw one on sale on the PriceMinister site. This one was from 1911, which means during Orville Gibson lifetime (he died in 1918)… As long as he lived his portrait was featured on the white label inside. It was sold for 17 000 € (about 20.000 $).

    @willkupers 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Wow, what an extraordinary beautiful guitar. Time and craftsmanship put in there, you won't see anymore today.

THE SLIDE SOUNDED GREAT AND THE FINGER PICKING WITHOUT THE SLIDE WAS JUST A GOOD,,, THIS GUITAR IS BEAUTIFUL REALLY !!! I BELIEVE THE SCROLL REALLY DOES HAVE MEANING TO A VIOLINIST IN THE FAMILY TREE!

    • @davidkieltyka9

    • @thejimmymeister
      @thejimmymeister 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I think the Mississippi Sheiks have seniority, even over Skip James. It's Sittin' On Top of the World, first recorded in 1930.
      By the way, You Gotta Move isn't by the Stones. It was recorded by the Two Gospel Keys in the '40s and has been covered by artists like Rosetta Tharpe and Mississippi Fred McDowell well before the Stones version.

    • @Backcountryhunter
      @Backcountryhunter 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      James whoa. Skip James , miss.shieks. Those are some old!!! Names. I'm not arguing your right and I think you may be, but I do have recordings from I believe 1932 from Skip . He was one of those cats that was " rediscovered" in the 60's folk boom.. But Sam Chatmon of the sheiks was a half brother or cuz to Charlie Patton who was def ahead of em all. Thank god for TH-cam. Remember the days when the hunt was on in obscure used record shops and antique stores for some of those greats. I try explaining to my boys the dare I say magic u felt goin into a record store.... I sure miss those simple times. You take care friend🎸
