I met Bill Lawrence in 1975 while trying out amps at the Music Barn in Nashville. This big German dude walks over and tells me Gibson is moving to Nashville and he was the lead man for Gibson Guitars. I told him this was crazy talk and I don’t believe it
Neely Guitars:

This 1957 Hofner Club 40 is extremely rare. It’s just like the one that George Harrison played and a duplicate was used by John Lennon. It’s in perfect condition and has held up well over the years. It did need some action corrections and flat wound strin

I like the Duesenberg line of guitars and hardware. Here I'm about to install their new LesTrem on this SG. It simply replaces the stop tailpiece with no modification to the guitar.
Neely Guitars:
It's rampant.....buying your dream guitar online only to find out the pickups are not original. Then, the seller refuses to reimburse claiming it wasn't this way when he shipped it. Now it's in court.
Neely Guitars:
Wow, thru the years I've had so many wonderful repeat clients.....love it!

This 1964 Rickenbacker model 325 Rose Morris came in for restoration of the original circuit. They didn't make very many of these and they're very collectible. Fortunately, most of the components are original except for the wiring. These 3 pickup guitars

My good friend Zak Starkey is back with a few more recent purchases and corrections. Not only is he the drummer for the Who, Ringo’s son, and mentored by Keith Moon, but he's also an incredible guitarist. This 1959 LPJr has one of the best P-90s.

Nashville was always a town of big body electric guitars...Gretsches, Byrdlands, Super 400s, 225s, 335s, etc. I just finished the restoration on this fabulous 1962 Chet Atkins....love it.

This 1964 Fender King Acoustic was from the Fender reaction to the folk movement in the early '60s. They had so many problems they were taken off the market....later reintroduced as the Kingman with the same issues. This one oddly enough is quite good.
