Is this Australia’s ultimate vintage guitar destination? Join us for this week’s Guitar Search Saturday as we head to Hawthorn, Victoria, to visit the legendary Guitar Colonel. From a genuine 1962 Pre-CBS Stratocaster to the ultra-rare Jimmy Page Signature Les Paul, this shop is a treasure trove of tone.
We sit down with Anthony (The Colonel) to talk shop history, famous celebrity clients, and the art of finding “The One.” Whether you’re into vintage Gibson archtops, boutique Australian pedals by Mozztronics, or 100-year-old acoustics, there is something in this video for every gear nerd!
In this episode, we find:
* A 1962 Vintage Fender Stratocaster
* The iconic Gibson Jimmy Page Les Paul
* A 1918 Gibson Acoustic (The “The Gibson” Headstock)
* The legendary Silvertone 1457 with the Amp-in-Case
* Boutique Paoletti Guitars made from ancient wine barrels
