eBay is my favorite place to find vintage guitars. You can search and find some of the most amazing guitars. It's a great history lesson. Every guitar has a story. Some guitars are flawless...pristine...mint condition. Other vintage guitars on eBay are a little less than perfect. While I can appreciate the perfectly preserved vintage guitar I also appreciate the survivors. The guitars that lived through the depression and a world war are still a treasure. This is where you can find a bit of a discount. Tuners that aren't original, small cracks, missing pick guard...all part it's history. How may of us make it through life without a few repairs. In most cases they have a great patina and the aged wood sounds so sweet. I even look at the project guitars. You can find some very interesting guitars if you take the time to search. If you're into vintage electric guitars you can find parts to complete your project. eBay categorizes vintage as pre-1980's. Of course you'll find all sorts of guitars thrown into that category. As with anything in life beauty seems to be in the eye of the beholder. I personally like the old parlor guitars. The small size and narrow waist is pure art. The peoples guitar. Something you could imagine being played when radio was the entertainment center. Look through the listings and your likely to find some of the coolest vintage guitars on eBay
