Teisco TG-64 - a classic Japanese solidbody guitar from 1965


guitarz.blogspot.com:
Continuing on the Teisco theme, here is another of their guitars, the Teisco TG-64, which carries several of their best known design features: the striped metal pickgulards, the 4+2 headstock style, the pushbutton pickup selector keys, the offset block fingerboard inlays, and the proto-monkeygrip "handle" in the body. We have actually looked at one of these guitars before on this blog (not to mention the Bass VI version, the TB-64) but it's not often you see them come up for sale on eBay, and this is a particularly clean example and in a much nicer finish than boring old sunburst or even Teisco's rather grim grey-green which always reminds me of the decor in hospitals.



This guitar is currently listed on eBay UK with a very low starting price of just £30 - I hope someone out there snaps it up! Let us know if it's you.
