INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED

After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible.

Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.

The original resistors, original pots, original sockets and jacks, original knobs and switches are all functioning appropriately without any scratchiness or inconsistencies.

These markers indicate the pots and transformers were dated towards the end of 1964, with the completion of the amp in early 1965.
