Hey folks, the video down there is of this exact guitar for sale! Back in the day these were my favorite guitars to buy and repair. They seemed to be in every pawn shop I visited, and they all called my name! Ha! There seemed to be two shades of Teisco blue back then, and this shade is like a more darker, almost metallic shade. I always thought these were only sold in Japan, but I did find this one in the USA.



Anyway, here's a nice survivor in good condition. There are a few mismatched parts like the tremolo arm and the knobs. Tuners are also replacements but it all works fine. This one also has the cool toggle switch for pre-set tones. I always used to modify these switches to be pickup selectors. Either way, everything works on this guitar and it plays and sounds just fine. Of course it will need a good set-up to get it playing to your tastes. There are all sorts of wear marks in the form of dings and doinks. Also, there is some paint loss near the neck pocket and some stress cracking a la Fender neck pockets. No issues, but wanted to mention it since I don't think it's visible in the pics.
