1960 is another important year in guitar history, especially for Gibson Les Paul models. While the iconic 1958 and 1959 Les Paul Standards are more famous, the 1960 models continued the tradition of excellent craftsmanship and tone. Some collectors and players appreciate 1960 Les Pauls for their slightly different finishes and neck profiles. It was also a period when guitar makers began experimenting more with designs and electronics, paving the way for the diverse styles of the ’60s and beyond. Overall, 1960 guitars remain valued for their vintage character and classic sound.

The bass guitar is the backbone of many musical styles, delivering the low-end power that holds everything together. Designed to play deep, resonant notes, it typically has four strings—though five- and six-string models are also popular—and comes in both fretted and fretless versions. Bass guitars can be electric or acoustic, with solid or hollow bodies, and are used across genres from rock and funk to jazz and reggae. In this category, you’ll find a wide selection of bass guitars to suit all levels, from beginner to pro, each built to provide great tone, feel, and reliability.
A Precision Bass, often called a P-Bass, is a type of electric bass guitar first introduced by Fender in 1951. It was the world’s first mass-produced solid-body electric bass and revolutionised music by allowing bassists to play with greater volume and precision than the upright bass. Known for its split single-coil pickup (introduced in 1957), the P-Bass delivers a warm, punchy tone that suits a wide range of genres, from rock and punk to soul and funk. Its simple, ergonomic design, typically with one pickup and two knobs (volume and tone), has made it a favourite among countless bass players for decades due to its reliability, powerful sound, and comfortable feel.
Sunburst is a classic guitar finish featuring a gradient blend of colours that typically fade from a darker edge to a lighter centre, resembling the glow of a setting sun. This timeless style is popular on both electric and acoustic guitars and adds visual depth and character to the instrument. Sunburst finishes come in various variations—such as vintage, cherry, or tobacco sunburst—and have been favoured by many iconic guitar models throughout history.
A vintage guitar is a guitar that is considered to be of significant age, typically over 30 years old, and often possesses historical, cultural, or collector’s value. Vintage guitars are highly sought after by collectors, musicians, and enthusiasts for their craftsmanship, tone, playability, and historical significance.
Vintage guitars can come from various eras, each with its own unique characteristics and desirability.
Vintage guitars often exhibit signs of wear and aging, which can add to their character and authenticity. However, originality, condition, and provenance are crucial factors that determine the value of a vintage guitar. Well-maintained and all-original vintage guitars with documented history and provenance tend to command higher prices on the collector’s market.
While vintage guitars can be valuable investments, they are also cherished for their playability and the unique sonic characteristics they offer. Many musicians prefer vintage instruments for their mojo, vibe, and connection to music history.
