- Homemade Upright Bass-banjo. Awesomely Unique Instrument.
guitarz.blogspot.com: I'd love to hear how this Bass-Banjo sounds. I think it's a great idea and I had one of those " how have I not thought of this" moments. This particular bass looks like it was made quite cheaply It makes me wonder if...
- What Guitar Is This? Vintage Electric Guitar
guitarz.blogspot.com: The seller of this guitar found it in the basement and said that it was his/her father's guitar when he was a kid. It's hard to tell what the guitar is. I'm assuming 1960s Japanese but I cannot recall a guitar with...
- Banjocaster. Custom Made Telecaster Conversion

- Silvertone Semi-hollow Form The 1960s With Slider Controls
guitarz.blogspot.com: Here is a great example of the "budget" guitars from the 1960s. This Silvertone Semi-hollow would have been purchased at Simpsons and used until you could afford a "real" guitar. I love the look of this well maintained beauty....

Rayner Guitar from the 1960s. Not made in Japan?
guitarz.blogspot.com:
There is very little information in the listing for this Rayner guitar. Just a phone number. I thought perhaps it was a lazy seller, but found that there is not a lot of information about these guitars. My first thought was that it was a Kawai with a different name but in some searching i found that it was quite possibly built in Ireland by Statsford.
Can anyone confirm or deny this?
No matter the origins I love the look of this hollow-body beauty. I feel I've seen a similar shape in another guitar, but cannot quite place it.
