about
Bertram Kolar

I am a musician, booker & promoter based in Vienna. Ever since I saw Marty McFly ripping a Van Halen inspired solo over a Chuck Berry riff on a Gibson ES as a young kid, I was fascinated by electric guitars and the impact they could have on an audience. Be it Alvin Lee’s heavily modified ES-335 or Jimmy Page's beautiful burst - I knew that Gibson guitars are just something special and I want to play one myself.  Since my teenage years I am always on the hunt for great, reasonable priced Gibson guitars from the present and recent past. 

Vintage guitars become more and more only an investment for collectors, but I think they need to be played in the spotlight of live shows and show their hard earned scars. To make that happen, it is important to offer great, worn in vintage products for a fair price. 

Most of the guitars and basses I sell have been purchased directly from private owners, collectors or musicians and are an instrument that I would love to see on stage or enjoy to play myself. I am primarily looking for instruments in original, very good to excellent condition. They can have their dings and dongs, but the feeling must be right! If you purchase a guitar at Daughterson's you can be sure that the instrument you buy has been hand-picked, carefully inspected and is ready for the next show!
