Transcription Summary:
Join Nathaniel and Nick at Chicago Music Exchange for another exciting "This Just In" episode, showcasing a remarkable collection of vintage guitars. Nick kicks things off with a stunningly clean 1967 Fender Telecaster, a light blonde beauty priced at $16,000. He emphasizes its excellent condition, light weight, and fantastic sound. The video features a quick demo of the Telecaster, highlighting its bridge and neck pickup tones.
Next up is a pristine 1963 Gibson SG in Polaris White, a highly sought-after model with a price tag of $24,999. Nathaniel marvels at its clean condition and classic SG aesthetics, describing it as a "Cadillac in a guitar." Another brief demo showcases the SG's powerful pickups with some added gain.
Nick then reveals his personal favorite of the bunch: a 1958 Martin D-18 acoustic guitar priced at $3,495. This particular D-18 has a unique feature – double pickguards, added by a previous owner who was a fan of Bob Shane. Despite an internal pickup that will be removed, the guitar's acoustic tone is praised, and its vintage charm is highlighted.
The showcase continues with a refinished 1963 Fender Esquire in sunburst, priced at $17,000. While the refinish brings the price down, the guitar still retains its vintage appeal. A quick demo reveals that it needs a setup, but it still has a cool vibe and the pickups sound great.
Finally, Nick presents a 1967 Hofner bass, in great shape and priced at $2,695. Nathaniel admits he's not a bass player but gives it a try, showcasing its flatwound strings and vintage tone. The bass comes with its original violin case, adding to its collectibility.

In the world of boutique tube amplifiers, few names carry the reputation of Two-Rock Amplifiers. Founded in 1999 and originally inspired by Dumble and high-end Fender tones, Two-Rock Amps has long since developed an identity entirely its own — one defined not just by how the amp sounds, but by how it feels. Touch sensitivity and dynamic response are at the core of every Two-Rock circuit, creating an instrument-like playing experience that has turned players like John Mayer, Eric Johnson, and Joe Bonamassa into believers. At Chicago Music Exchange, we carry a full selection of Two-Rock Amplifiers across a range of models, configurations, and colors — and seemingly everyone who plugs into one doesn't want to stop.
