Guitar
This seller is offering a unique and pretty darn funky looking Japanese solid body electric. I've never seen this particular model - it could be a Guyatone or a Prestige or any of a dozen 1960's era brands. Check out the unique three piece pickguard segments. Very cool. The bad news is the pickups are not working - he says it is wiring, which could be true. But it also could be more complicated than it sounds.
Maybe if you can get it for cheap it will be worth it. The shape of those pickups reminds me of a Zenon or Zim Gar guitar.
Update: There is an identical guitar to this posted on Michael Robinson's website - www.Myrareguitars.com - and he describes it as a VICTORIA guitar and says it as "Perhaps one of the coolest guitars I have." That is quite a comment coming from the guy who just may have the largest collection of wacky and unique guitars on the planet. - JC

Trying to sell my 1960's Teisco Guitar. This guitar is super rare, you will probably never see another one. The real manufacturer of this guitar is unknown to many collectors making it somewhat of a mystery but im just calling it a teisco because it follows the same basic style of the teiscos of the same period. There does seem to be a problem with it though, when i got it only one pickup worked but recently that one quit also. I opened it up to see that pickup wires have become disconnected from the switch. This is a quick fix to someone who has the time to do it or a little cash to take it to a pro. So im currently taking offers on it how it sits. Send an email if interested and i'll get back to you. Thanks
- Neat Customized Teisco E-100 In Flint Mi For $120
This seller took an old ET-120 and gave it a very unique custom paint job and an aftermarket P90 pickup. I'd say he did a pretty darn good job. He only wants $120 and will entertain trades. Check it out. ************************** ...
- 1960's Ibanez/guyatone Early Solid Body Electric In Portland Mn For $140
This seller is offering an early 1960's MIJ electric that is probably an Ibanez or Guyatone. The overall shape and style of this guitar is very similar to Ibanez's own Talman model that they released many years later. This is pre "copy era" when...
- Domino Hawk In Minneapolis Area For $375
I wouldn't normally get excited about $375 for a Domino (though I do like them) but this Hawk is a rare Japanese made hollowbody in the all-to-rare white finish and it looks to be in very nice shape (hopefully all orginal). Definitely worth...
- Teisco K2-l In Kalamazoo Mi For $200
Here is a cool old K2-L - one of the better playing Teisco's. Blue is the most popular but the red ones are still cool. If you are lucky this one should have the 4x2 headstock. These sharkfin models are some...
