Provenance
Roy Buchanan (1939-1988) Renowned for his overwhelming tone and beautiful, soulful melody, Roy Buchanan was a highly influential guitarist whose innovations of picking harmonics, volume swells, and string bending have become standard techniques of the electric blues guitar. During his lifetime he received the highest accolades and admiration from some of the world’s great guitarists, including Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Les Paul, and Robbie Robertson. Today, his recorded solos continue to astonish listeners with their monumental crescendos of technical and creative virtuosity. It would be impossible to imagine the role of the Fender Telecaster guitar in modern electric blues without the signature sound that he imparted to this simple instrument. His critical recognition included two gold records and two more that were on the charts of Billboard magazine. His immortal version of Don Gibson’s country classic “Sweet Dreams” can be heard at the closing of Martin Scorsese’s The Departed.
Alvin Kaleolani Isaacs (1904-1984) One of Hawaii’s best known and loved songwriters and performers, Mr. Isaacs was a multiinstrumentalist who composed more than 300 songs, including “Nalani” which became a recorded favorite of Nat “King” Cole. Many of his compositions are now popular standards of Hawaiian music. He was an original member of the “Royal Hawaiians” house band of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel which supplied the music for “The Voice of Hawaii” radio show on NBC.

Skinner, Inc. - Conditions of Sale 1. Some of the lots in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and Skinner, Inc. below which the lot will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated range, but in no case will it exceed the estimates listed. A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot. 2. All property is sold “as is,� and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability. 3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot for sale. The auctioneer shall have sole discretion to refuse any bid, or refuse to acknowledge any bidder. Any bidder that plans on spending in excess of $100,000 should make arrangements with the accounting department at least five (5) days in advance of the sale, as a deposit may be required to participate. 4.

Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots. 9.
