3. Bluesman Vintage ’61 El Dorado
Tennessee-based Bluesman Vintage had a collection of beautiful, Fender-inspired “recreations,” including this Candy Apple-finished ’61 El Dorado J-style bass. With matching headstock and early- ’60s-style features, it was among the more eye-catching specimens in a booth full of handsome, vintage-style instruments.
