The Mike Mager collection

(Lots 1 – 53)

Mike was a gifted musician, and well-respected bass player, both locally in Lincolnshire, and beyond. He played in many local bands including Hokey Pokey, The Gatlin Boys, Dynamo Hum, The Rumble Band, and latterly the Dukes blues band to name but a few. Mike also played his beloved resonators under the name of Muddy Mike and held classes on how to play them. Music was his passion, particularly blues, along with collecting, hence this collection we now have, illustrating a life in music.

*Found in a UK antiques market in its current condition, this rare Veleno aluminium guitar requires extensive restoration. The body has a gold plated finish which has significantly flaked, with the exposed aluminium suffering from corrosion.

A selection of parts, many of which have also suffered from the elements, include a set of 6 Schaller tuners, 2 DiMarzio humbucker pickups, the original perpex scratchplate, original bridge, 4 potentiometers, 4 knobs, 3 switches and a selection of various screws.

John Veleno was a maker fully aluminium guitars, which were unique to the time. Using skills from his day job in St. Petersburg, Florida, building aluminium electrical housings for space shuttles that were routinely launched from nearby Cape Canaveral.

The unique build and look of John's guitars quickly made waves around the world, attracting many celebrity clients including Marc Bolan, Eric Clapton, Pete Haycock, Gregg Allman, Ace Frehey, Todd Rundgren, Jeff Lynn, to name just a few. John completed nearly 200 guitars before suffering from a stroke that sadly left him unable to continue his craft, resulting in his instruments being a global rarity and commanding high premiums on the collectors market, especially with such a high profile client list.

Lots (501 – 611)

Gardiner Houlgate is delighted to offer the contents of the Tony Zemaitis workshop, sold on behalf of Ann and Tony Zemaitis Jr. The following onehundred and eleven lots feature an extensive archive of Tony’s prolific career, including a large selection of tools and related items that the legendary British maker used to craft many of his fine guitars. The sale of the workshop is accompanied by handmade furniture made by Tony for the Zemaitis family home, along with a large selection of memorabilia from his various celebrity clients, including personal letters from the likes of George Harrison, Peter Frampton, Gilby Clarke, Mike Oldfield, Donavan and many more. The importance of the collection cannot be understated, as Chairman of the Zemaitis Guitar Owners Club and close friend of Tony, Keith Smart conveys with the following words.

A Foreword by Keith Smart - Chairman, Zemaitis Guitar Owners club

Tony Zemaitis was a genius. I do not use that description lightly. Born in 1935, even as a child Tony was always making things. After attending grammar school Tony gained a 5-year apprenticeship as a cabinet maker. A number of other Luthiers also followed this route to guitar making. Some of the furniture that Tony worked on is in Buckingham Palace and Windsor castle.

In the fifties Tony borrowed a friend’s Tatay (Czechoslovakian made) acoustic guitar and made a copy of it. He started making more guitars for friends, just for the cost of materials. Each time refining the design. By the 1960’s Tony was making 12 string acoustics, a rare sight in Great Britain at this time.

Tony called them “Street basses” and tuned them to low C. He played his guitar in coffee shops and clubs in London. His acoustics started to be played by top professional players, who recognised the sound and build quality. Tony’s acoustics recorded well in the studio. Players like Ralph McTell, Long John Baldry and Spencer Davis played them. Incredibly, these players kept Tony’s guitars all their professional lives.

In 1965 Tony turned professional. Tony’s workshop was in Balham, London. Clients and visitors included George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Marc Bolan, Donovan just to name a few!

Tony’s 12 string acoustics were very easy to play, compared with those made by other makers. His cabinet making skills enabling him to produce ornate inlays on the fretboard and body of his instruments. He experimented with various bracing on his acoustic and sound holes. His early acoustic did not need a truss rod. I have played early examples and can tell you the necks are still straight!

Tony was a trail blazer. There were no manuals or even tools available to him, so Tony made his own! Tony was very knowledgeable about the physics of guitar playing. He once explained to me how a guitar was never perfectly in tune, and how tuning was a compromise. In the sixties Tony came up with the idea of “Compensated frets”. These were frets set at a slight angle to help with intonation. Rickenbacker later came up with “Slanted frets” using the same theory. Eric Clapton approached Tony after buying a second hand Zemaitis 12 string acoustic, about building a unique acoustic guitar for himself. The fabulous instrument that Tony made was nicknamed “Ivan the Terrible” and had tremendous sustain.

Tony started making electric guitars in the sixties, but it was the “Metal front” guitars that really made players gasp! The idea was to produce more shielding to eliminate hum from the electrics. However, when Tony asked his friend, Master engraver Danny O’Brien to engrave some of the metal work, the guitar also became a work of art! Tony was one of the first small guitar makers to produce guitars with built in pre-amps to boost the sound. A number were fitted to the early metal fronts. Back in the day, there were no bridges, tail pieces etc for sale, again, Tony made his own. The Custom bridges were a sight to behold. He made a rod for his own back though, because when bridges became available, customers still requested the Custom bridge! The first batch of metal fronts were made in 1971, the first one sold to Tony McPhee of the Groundhogs (he still has it), Ronnie Wood and Marc Bolan both bought one. Ronnie still has his, Marc’s is now owned by Paul McCartney. Tony’s instruments started appearing on television. I remember watching Ronnie Wood with the Faces playing a Zemaitis metal front on television, “Wow look at that guitar, what is it?” It was the same for lots of guitarists that night watching TOP OF THE POPS” when Rod Stewart and the Faces played “Maggie May”.

Tony didn’t stop there though, he started making guitars with pearl applied to the front in a mosaic pattern. His idea was, these were stage guitars and the lights from the stage would dance round them. He was right.

Tony’s guitars were played by legends, a who’s who of rock aristocracy, Marc Bolan, Donovan, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Gilby Clake, Ronnie Wood, Ronnie Lane, Eric Clapton and even Bob Dylan! By 1971 he had moved his workshop to Kent. He still had many famous clients visit him there, Gilby Clarke of Guns and Roses even brought a film crew!

Tony passed away in 2002, he leaves a fantastic legacy of guitars. The family have now decided it is time to dismantle his workshop. This will be a unique opportunity for admirers of Tony’s work to acquire a special memory. If those tools could speak, all the famous players who have had instruments made by Tony, what stories they could tell. I spent many happy times with Tony in there, looking at the walls, festooned with photos, letters from George Harrison or Peter Frampton. If all of this work was not enough, Tony also built two aircraft in his back garden! He was a genius and I miss him. Grab a piece of history from the workshop of a legend.

The Michael Chapman Collection Lots 621 – 649

Michael Chapman (24 January 1941 – 10 September 2021) was a British singer-songwriter and virtuosic guitar player, becoming well known in the folk clubs of the late 1960s, as well as on the 'progressive' music scene, he released over 50 albums.

The guitar and voice of Michael Chapman first became known on the Cornish Folk Circuit in 1967. Playing a blend of atmospheric and autobiographical material he established a reputation for intensity and innovation. Signed to EMI's Harvest label he recorded a quartet of classic albums. LPs like 'Rainmaker' and 'Wrecked Again' defined the melancholic observer role Michael was to make his own, mixing intricate guitar instrumentals with a full band sound. The influential album 'Fully Qualified Survivor', featuring the guitar of Mick Ronson and Rick (Steeleye Span) Kemp's bass, was John Peel's favourite album of 1970. 'Survivor' featured the Chapman 'hit', "Postcards of Scarborough", a characteristically tenderly sour song recounting the feelings of nostalgia and regret.

A label change to Decca brought a change in sound. Electric guitar, still with that distinctive Chapman fluidity, featured more prominently. Tracks like "New York Ladies" and "Firewater Dreams" on 'Millstone Grit' showed a guitar master pursuing sounds and textures. Michael continued to build his live reputation, touring solo and with a variety of groups, recording the live album 'Pleasures of the Streets' a strong mix of solo and band performances. He was a regular session contributor to Radio One, and BBC TV broadcast two Chapman Band performances as part of their Sight and Sound series.

A lively and accomplished improviser, Michael gained a reputation for re-working material, both before an audience and on record. Songs were seen as standards, themes to be explored, extended and varied on stage and in the studio. The Don Nix produced 'Savage Amusement' featured versions of the Chapman songs "Shuffleboat River Farewell" and "It Didn't Work Out". Different musicians and a different sound breathed new life into earlier material, showing Michael to be a jazz musician in spirit if not in sound. 'The Man Who Hated Mornings' showed the respect Michael commanded among musicians with supporting performances from Andy Latimer of Camel, Keith Hartley and violinist Johnny Van Derek.

1978 brought another label change and the release of 'Playing Guitar the Easy Way', a guitar tutorial record that explained in simple terms, methods of playing the guitar using 12 different instrumental pieces each with a different open tuning. The critically well received albums, 'Life on The Ceiling' and 'Looking For Eleven', showed that Michael had fully absorbed elements of rock as he had done folk during the '60's, to produce a hybrid that mixed folk, jazz phrasing, rock and elements of what became known as New Age Music.

In response to public demand Michael recorded a solo album 'Almost Alone' presenting the relaxed eclectic mix that was a Chapman club gig. The '80's saw Michael back with Rick Kemp. Touring as a duo they released the live album 'Original Owners', whose version of "Shuffleboat River Farewell", stripped back to guitar and bass, showed that old dogs could teach new tricks. Anyone hearing the anger of the newer material, coupled with the volume and energy of the Chapman Kemp band Savage Amusement, formed in the mid '80's, was left in no doubt that here was an elder statesman growing more acid, rather than mellower with age. After a period of reflection and lower profile releases, Michael captured the mood of the time with his '87 album Heartbeat, a ground-breaking thematic album featuring a continuous 38-minute piece of music. This was an ambition made possible by the advent of CDs.

Experiments with sequencers and sampling on the 90's track "Geordies Down the Road", an anthem to the death of employment in the Northeast, assaulted the listener with foundry atmospherics and industrial guitars, showing that Michael wasn't standing still. The albums 'Still Making Rain' and '95's 'Navigation' presented a man whose world-weary voice, given a patina by life and hard living, delivered sensitive, emotional songs. While aware of his past, reinterpreting his hit "Postcards of Scarborough", Michael looked to the future. The playing was more considered than ever before. Fewer notes and space for music to breathe, gave songs like "The Mallard" and "It Ain't So" an almost hymn like intensity. 1995 also saw the publishing of Michael's first novel 'Firewater Dreams', a thinly veiled autobiography, which fleshed out some of his highly personal songs and explored his themes of regret, travel, and loneliness. Reviews of his album 'Navigation' show the high regard for Michael Chapman, Mojo 11/95 'Twenty-one albums and he is still amazing', Q 12/95 '**** (four stars out of a possible five) and this his best album in years.

In more recent times he collaborated with Thurston Moore (ex-Sonic Youth and a long-time fan) on various improv projects, showing that he was still more than capable of pushing the envelope even though he was well into his seventies.

In 2016 he celebrated 50 years on the road and released the highly acclaimed “50” album, recorded Stateside with a bunch of superb musicians less than half his age. Towards the end of his life, he was still playing professionally and regularly touring in the UK as well as Europe and the US. Doing what came naturally and doing what he loved. With his uniquely English melancholic perspective and emotive guitar style he remains one of the most underrated heroes of our times. Michael sadly passed away on Sept 10th, 2021, aged 80.

Gardiner Houlgate is delighted to offer the following twenty-nine lots of guitars and ephemera from Michael’s prolific career, on behalf of lifelong partner, Andru.

*Ex lot 21, 'Cat Stevens' Musical Equipment and Personal Effects' Bonhams, Saturday 6th June 1981. Sold with an original trifold auction catalogue listing the guitar as lot 21 'Ovation Folklore acoustic electric guitar and Ovation case'. The catalogue inscribed with the vendor's annotations. Also sold with the original Bonhams purchase receipt in the vendors name, dated 6th June 1981

The guitar case inscribed 'Yusuf' and '#20' in black pen to the case top. The vendor believes that the '#20' marking refers to the original auction lot numbers, with the auction house uniting the incorrect case with the guitar. Lot 20 in the auction was listed as an 'Ovation Legend acoustic electric guitar and Ovation case'.

Born in London on July 21st 1948, Cat Stevens' career launched with the release of 'I Love My Dog', a top thirty British hit in the autumn of 1966. This record was followed by 'Matthew & Son' and 'I'm Gonna Get Me a Gun', both of which achieved top ten the following year. In 1968, Cat Stevens' recording career was put on hold by near fatal tuberculosis, during which time he found a spiritual awakening and awareness in the teachings of the East, which were soon to be reflected in his new music.

On recovery, Stevens returned to recording and with a far simplified approach to music, released 'Mona Bone Jackon', his first album for Island Records with the single 'Lady D'Arbanville' becoming a top ten hit in 1970. Stevens went on to record many critically acclaimed albums including 'Tea for the Tillerman', 'Teaser and the Firecat', 'Catch Bull at Four', 'Buddha and the Chocolate Box', 'Foreigner', 'Izitso' and 'Back to Earth'. He also had

'Moonshadow', 'Another Saturday Night', 'Can't Keep it In' and one of his most recognised songs 'Morning Has Broken',

an all-time great

Throughout the seventies, Cat Stevens was still searching for spiritual fulfilment, a search that led to the discovery of Islam in 1975, two years later embracing the Islamic faith. Now named Yusuf Islam, he took to the decision to leave his music behind and devote his life to reaching God.

The Bonhams auction in 1981 was a clear-out of this musical past with the proceeds from the sale assisting three charities of Yusuf Islam's choice: Help the Aged, Help a London Child and Companions of the Central London Mosque

Cat Stevens was known for playing Ovation guitars throughout the 1970s, with many published photographs from the mid 1970s showing him playing an Ovation Folklore model.

Brian May interest - 2001 Burns Brian May Adeson Pickup prototype electric guitar, ser. no. BHM0335, within original Burns hard case

*This instrument was used as a test bed/prototype for the Brian May stage/tour/backup guitars and the original Andrew Guyton run of exact replica instruments. This early production instrument is fitted with glued-in oak inserts to the pickup cavities so the pickups can be screwed down, brass pickup posts, aluminium switch plate, original spec wiring, full Perspex etc, essentially the same as the original Red Special. The pickups themselves are the original specification and build as measured at the time by Adeson from the original Red Special guitar. Now over twenty years old, this guitar is the forerunner of most of the later special edition upgraded examples. The guitar features a chambered mahogany body, mahogany neck and polished ebony fingerboard and, unlike most of the later examples, this has the correct scale length. The only standout feature that differs from the original Red Special is the standard Burns bridge. Another interesting feature of this instrument is that the guitar is serial number '335', the model on which Brian May based his Red Special on.Sold with a signed statement of provenance from Adrian Turner of Adeson £1000-2000

The Lord of the Rings interest - 'The Rohan Fiddle', an interesting antique Norwegian Hardanger fiddle, labelled Helland Bro's Violin Manufacturers, Cameron, W1S, 1905, decorated all over with geometric foliate designs within chevron and dot painted purfled borders; also with mother of pearl foliate inlaid fingerboard and tailpiece, the head terminating in a carved mythical beast's head with gilded foliate finial, 13 3/4", 34.90cm, case

*The vendor of this instrument, Dermot Crehan, used this instrument, thought to have been made by Helland, for a solo instrumental piece for the main theme tune of Lord of the Rings, the epic film trilogy. The instrument was specifically chosen by Dermot for the films' soundtrack after Howard Shore (composer of the soundtrack) made a special request that he should acquire a Hardanger fiddle. Howard was particularly impressed by the haunting sound that the Hardanger produces and felt that this sound would very much be in empathy with the spirit of the film. The fiddle has since become known as 'The Rohan Fiddle' after the name of the main theme tune of Lord of the Rings. it can be heard particularly clearly 30 seconds into 'Concerning Hobbits', the second track of the first film, The Fellowship of the Ring. Dermot Crehan was born in Dublin into a family steeped in the traditional music of Ireland. His formative years were spent making the hay, cutting the turf and generally getting in the way of his uncle Junior's farm near Milltown Malbay in County Clare. Dermot, under the wing of a famous Clare fiddler and his father Vincie, went on to become 'All Ireland Champion Fiddle Player', holding the coveted award for three years £3000-5000

David Bowie interest - a 1960s Hagstrom Bjarton BJ-12 twelve string electro-acoustic guitar, made in Sweden, ser. no. 68439; Back and sides: mahogany, minor dings and marks; Top: sunburst finish, small hairlines around the control knob area, evidence of some refinishing to the top edges; Neck: good; Fretboard: Indian rosewood; Frets: mild wear; Electrics: working; Hardware: good; Case: hard case; Overall condition: good

*Purchased by the vendor in 2007 from Mark Pritchett, David Bowie's backing guitarist during the Ziggy Stardust era. The guitar is sold with a copy of a handwritten letter to the vendor dated 7th November 2007 from Mark Pritchett confirming the sale of the Hagstrom to vendor and confirming the guitar was given to him by David Bowie after the 1973 CBS 1980 Floor Show. Also sold with a copy of a letter to Mark Pritchett from Kenneth Pitt, David Bowie's manager, dated 7th August 2007, stating he had acquired the instrument for David Bowie in 1968 and it eventually became his personal property. The letter also states his understanding that Mark was wanting to sell the guitar and had not heard back with permission from David and therefore suggesting he could see no reason why the guitar should not be offered for sale. Please note - both of the letters are copies of the originals. Unfortunately, the vendor has misplaced the originals themselves. In the letter from Mark Pritchett to the current vendor, Mark states that this was David's primary writing/recording/performing instrument in the late 196s and early 70s, a fact that cannot be backed up due to a lack of supporting visual provenance.

*Original hologram proof created by the Holographic Image Studio, London, to feature on the front cover of David Bowie's twenty-second studio album 'Hours'.

14. Definitions and interpretation

In these conditions: (a) Reference to the ‘the Auctioneer’ shall be taken to mean the firm of Gardiner Houlgate or any director, partner or employee thereof at the time of sale; (b) Buyers shall be deemed to be the principals unless to the prior knowledge of the Auctioneer they are acting as agent on behalf of a named principal; (c) ‘Forgery’ means a lot (i) which is so constituted as deliberately to deceive when considered in the light of its catalogue description, and (ii) whose value as such is materially less that if it had complied with the catalogue description; (d) The Interpretation Act 1978 shall apply to the general construction of terms and expressions used in these Conditions as if contained in a statute.

15. Law and Jurisdiction

These Conditions of sale are subject to English law, which shall apply to their construction as well as their effect. The Seller and Buyer agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

16. What is Temporary Importation?

Temporary Importation is a system that applies to lots which have been imported for sale from outside the EU. It allows the point of importation to be delayed until after the sale at auction. These lots are indicated in catalogues by the use of the following symbol * Only the Hammer Price will be treated as the import price and the Buyer’s Premium will be subject to UK domestic VAT at 20%. So whilst the Hammer Price will continue to be charged with Import VAT at 5% or 20” as appropriate, the Buyer’s Premium will always be charged with domestic VAT at 20%

Lots subject to Temporary Importation will be offered under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme and will be subject to import VAT of either 5% or 20% on the buyer’s Premium. Anyone who wishes to buy outside the Margin Scheme should notify us immediately. An invoice under the normal VAT rules and charging VAT at 20% on both Hammer and Premium will then be issued

Temporary Importation should affect only private individual buyers who are resident within the EU. Anyone who is registered for VAT in the EU should be able to recover the VAT on the Buyer’s Premium either on their VAT returns or through the 8th Directive Refund Scheme. Any non-EU buyer who exports the lots from the EU will be able to have the VAT refunded provided the appropriate export regulations are complied with.

17. Property sold with a * Symbol

These items have been imported from outside the EU to be sold at auction under temporary importation. When Gardiner Houlgate releases such property to buyers in the UK, the buyer will become the importer and must pay Gardiner Houlgate import VAT at 5% on the Hammer Price.

These lots will be invoiced under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme. Gardiner Houlgate must bear VAT on the Buyer’s Premium and hence charge an amount in lieu of VAT at 20% on this Premium. This amount will form part of the Buyer’s Premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified

VAT registered buyers from the EU should note that the import VAT charged on property released in the UK cannot be cancelled or refunded by Gardiner Houlgate.

VAT registered buyers from the UK should note that the invoice issued by Gardiner Houlgate for these items is not suitable evidence in respect of import VAT.

VAT registered buyers from the EU countries may be able to seek repayment of the import VAT paid by applying to HM Revenue and Customs. On request, immediately after the sale, the office can either ask HM Revenue and Customs to generate a C79 certificate (for UK buyers), or obtain a copy of the import C88 (for other EU VAT registered buyers), which may be used to claim recovery of the VAT. Otherwise Gardiner Houlgate may re-invoice the lot and charge VAT at 20% on both the Hammer Price and the Premium and provide a tax invoice to the buyer.

18. CITES Restrictions

Any lots containing any amount of Brazilian rosewood and endangered species may be subject to restrictions when exporting outside of the EU. It will be the buyer’s responsibility to make sure that the relevant paperwork is in place before shipping.

Some lots are sold with CITES article 10 certificates, allowing the commercial use of an item containing an endangered species. Lots subject to this are marked in the catalogue

Import/Export

It is the buyer’s responsibility to obtain the correct import/export licenses and CITES licenses for items which they have purchased. Gardiner Houlgate take no responsibility for the export of goods

19. Gemstones

Many gemstones have been treated in various ways to enhance their appearance. For example, sapphires and rubies are routinely heat treated and emerald treated with oils and resins. Some stones may require re-treating or oiling periodically. Enhancement affects market value, and all Gardiner Houlgate estimates assume that gemstones may have been enhanced.

20. Artists Resale Rights (or Droit de Suite)

On certain lots marked in the catalogues and which are sold for a hammer price of 1000 Euros or greater (converted into the currency of the sale using The Design and Artists Copyright Society threshold calculator on the date of the Sale) the Additional Premium will be the percentage of the amount of t he hammer Price calculated as follows:

0-50,000 Euros 4%

50,000.01 to 200,000 3%

200,000.01 to 350,000 1% 350,000.01 to 500,000 0.5% Exceeding 500,000 0.25%
