Welcome!

Welcome to Marginally Irresponsible Vintage Guitars. I am Dale Stevenson. Our primary interest is in vintage guitars and amplifiers produced in the United States of America from the mid to late 1950s through to the end of the 1960s. These guitars and amps were used by countless pioneering and famous jazz, blues and rock players. Indeed, today their value is being recognised and their great qualities and tones rediscovered and used by musicians at all levels and of all styles.

We concentrate on guitars and amplifiers from famous American brands such as Harmony, Kay, Airline, Silvertone, Supro, Danelectro and National. Many were sold through the large mail order catalogue companies. We also deal in some famous European brands like Framus and Hofner and special models of guitars from manufacturers, such as Ibanez.
