FS/FT Galanti Grand Prix 2V 1966 model RARE (New Photos added) - PRICE DROP - SOLD
What's Hot
Hey guys i've decided after a lot of thought to sell my Galanti.
This thing is a beast!
Plays and sounds beautiful. It's been used mostly in the studio, i've never toured it i've just gigged a few times.
Some would describe it as a angry Jazzmaster.
Everything works great on it.
The unique design of the pickup selector takes abit of getting used to but it all works fine.
Everything is original. The only thing i've had to do is stick the bottom corner of the pick guard back (hopefully you can see from the photos).
Comes with the original hard case.
£820 £700 with original case but open to trades aswell

But then came the Beatles… they almost single-handedly ignited the frenzied guitar craze of the 1960’s. Bye bye accordion…
So… in Italy, several accordion manufacturers jumped into the guitar boom with highly designed, european-styled guitar models. But this Galanti Grand Prix is without a doubt the best of the bunch. Head and shoulders above the rest.
R. Galanti and Bro. set up an office in Ridgefield, New Jersey, and in the summer of 1965 ran full color ads featuring three wildly new Galanti designs, two guitars and a bass. The ad ran in Music Trades magazine.
’65 was the high-water mark for electric guitar demand, and Galanti was attempting to ride the wave. But demand in the late ’60s began to slow and these guitars went the way of the dinosaur. Nonetheless, Italian designers created some of the coolest, most playable guitars outside of the U.S.

It's a beautiful piece of work.
Italian curves.
No worries - it is in the '1001 Guitars to Dream of Playing before you snuff it' book
You're more than welcome to come try it out.
I'll be able to post at buyers expense aswell.
Thanks
I'd hate to put this on evil bay.
