| Our selection of archtop guitars includes acoustic and electric
models by well- known American makers. We have a close relationship
with Seattle builder Steve Andersen, whose instruments rival some
of the best jazz guitars ever made. We're also big fans of classic
Gibson and Epiphone guitars used by the greats of swing and jazz.
We're pleased to be Portland's exclusive dealer for National
resonator guitars, and often carry Dobro square-necked models appropriate
for bluegrass & country as well. Once again we're able to
advise customers on the right choice for their needs, since we
carry both!

smile is almost as bright as his new engraved National. |
| Although most folks don't think of us as an "electric kind of store," we often come up with some really interesting electric instruments. KC is an avid Telecaster player, and rumor has it that Pamela's personal collection includes a red '66 Fender Mustang, and an amp larger than she can lift. |

Collings 290
,
New. The folks at Collings have once again come up with an inspired blend of tradition and innovation, releasing a line of electrics rivaling anything made past or present. So we at Pioneer have indeed gone electric. The thing is though, by unanimous staff vote, we're not going to display them, or allow the local jammers to carry on with their inept versions of classic rock hits, or otherwise destroy the sanctity of our little acoustic shop. So. . .you've got to ask to see or play these things, which we will gladly dig out for you. You'll be glad you did. And who knows, with a little prodding, you can probably get KC to play some genuine honky-tonk, clearing the shop of wanna-be thrashers within seconds.
$ Please Inquire.
