Peate Musical Supplies Ltd.
 
MANSFIELD GUITARS

Peate Musical originated the 'Mansfield' trade name in the 1950s, named after
legendary Mansfield Street in downtown Montreal.
The Peate retail store was located on Mansfield and was the gathering place of choice for local and visiting musicians.

The original Mansfield guitars were produced in the best guitar factories in Japan, by makers who later became leading names in the industry.
The instruments were made to top level specifications and were among the finest instruments produced.

In fact, the early Mansfields are now collector's guitars valued for their workmanship, rarity and fine sound characteristics. If you are the owner of an original Mansfield, 
we would be happy to include an image in our developing Mansfield archive.
Let us know.

The original Mansfields may be imitated, but never equaled.
We stopped producing these fine instruments in 1990s.

* We are often asked to estimate the selling price of vintage Mansfield instruments.
Value is based on particular materials, condition, workmanship, playability, tone, rarity, 
general vintage market etc.. For the best evaluations we would suggest that you contact your nearest musical instrument store.
