Avg price: $1,479.00

Don Felder has used a Takamine CP-132SC guitar, as he says in this Q & A:

"'My question involves the classical guitar you used during the “Hell Freezes Over” tour and the song “Hotel California.” I’m curious to know the make of the guitar and what strings you used for it. If you recommend any brand of strings for a classical, that would be great help too.' 'Sarah, it was a Takamine with CP-132 SC Nylon strings. As far as strings for a classical go, I’d recommend SAVAREZ.'"

Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean

Don was asked about the Gretsch he used on the "Hell Freezes Over" DVD. He said "It was a 1959 orange Gretsch “Chet Atkins” that I had refinished black. I loved the sound but hated the color." (Quote from Felderfans Guitar Q & A with Don).
