- What Is This Plasma-labeled Guitar?
guitarz.blogspot.com This Plasma guitar feels like a one-off - and if not it's been anyway retrofit because you wouldn't find a wooden pickguard on any factory guitar! Or maybe it is a Frankenstein, because neck and headstock are typically...

- Jolana Superstar In Natural Wood Finish
guitarz.blogspot.com We've already seen a Jolana Superstar here one year ago, but it was in a poor state, so I take the opportunity to present the real thing - and you can see here how peculiar this Czechoslovakian guitar is, with its Japanese-style...

- Jolana Disco Bass - Another 1980s Czechoslovakian Wonder

Revamped 1979 Jolana Diamant
guitarz.blogspot.com
The Jolana Diamant was - and still is, since the brand has been revived - a Czechoslovakian copy of a Les Paul, and for me it has the special vibe that also have Japanese copies from the 1970s - it's difficult to tell why but they are almost more attractive than original Gibson models!
Anyway, as you can see this model has been retrofit with contemporary gear - not as cool as the original stuff that you can see here - in order (I assume) to keep it playable. And though a vintage Diamant is a very nice guitar, I prefer to see it renovated and played than original and in a museum (or a basement). What do you think?
