I dig the crazy stuff from Italy and Japan from this era. So much experimentation.

I like weird guitars like this, I picked up a Teisco del ray about a year ago. Mine needs a lot of work as well. I paid $20 bucks for mine which was prob too much. Can't wait to see what you do with this one, good luck!

There's a Del rey in a pawn shop near me, they want 200 bucks! Way too much, it's not in good shape either.

Just picked up one of these yesterday in much better condition. Needs a trem bar and spring( wanna sell me yours?), new strings and a thorough cleaning. Looks like someone upgraded the tuners.Minor body crack at the silver trussrod cover. Were you able to bring yours back from the dead?

Yup, that is a strange one bro! Those pups might just sound great, you never know with those old Japanese guitars. I never really looked twice at them but I own a small guitar repair shop up here near Boston, Mass. and I have a customer that brought me a 1964 Kawai (Houndog Taylor Model) for a re-fret. (It had 1964 binding on that damn neck) at first I thought what the hell am I getting myself into!? Lol. Before I do any work on a guitar, if it's got guts in it I like to plug em in and test out the electronics... And this thing woke up! Damn, what a cool tone so good when I finished the job I asked the customer (an old friend) if I could borrow it for recording... It was like one of those hidden recording gems that people use and we all go, how the hell is he getting that tone!! But I think I created a monster! Lol. My friend is on a 60's Japanese guitar kick now (and I'm his repair guy, w.t.f.!) So about a week goes by and he brings me this 70's Kay effector (LP looking plywood guitar, with built in effects), it was a frigging nightmare! None of the effects even worked! (except for a phase in/out switch, but that's not part of the pre-amp) It looked like someone ran the neck over with a truck... twice! Lol. Then they tried a neck reset and used epoxy, and got it everywhere, it had a bolt on neck!!! The giant headstock crack yeah maybe some but the neck pocket?? And the 12th fret was gone with a giant chunk of wood ripped out of the fingerboard... So I had to make that dreaded phone call (I hate telling people their guitars need more). But I told him, the guitar is junk, was junk when new! After I did a little research the Kay guitars were just like sears catalog guitars... It had what looked like 2 humbuckers, but they were singles with a dummy coil to fit a humbucker cover! So I put a cheap ass 50$ ebay neck on it (Without epoxy!) lol, gave it a quick fret level and crown and told him to please come get this nightmare it's all finished, then he asked me what he could get for it! 😂😅. I told him (being an old friend not just some stranger) If he want's to start buying guitars just to flip, he's gotta start with a good foundation, not a plywood thing! So he's a smart guy, in his mid 40's like me, a week later, I get a phone call from Ryan... He bought a 1965 Teisco Del Rey from FB marketplace for 100$. I wasn't sure what to think then he brought it to the shop. What a cool guitar!! Another great sounding gem like the Kawai! All it needed was a set/up, a new nut (Graph-tech), some spot leveling of a few frets and a good cleaning. He's on vacation for a week so I still have it kicking around the house, what a fun axe to jam on! I love having a shop to be able to play all these cool ass guitars that I never would have even looked at!! Thanks for sharing the guitar with us bro! Here's a few pictures of the guitars I was talking about, thx. again ... Mike (IRG) facebook.com/Ipswich-River-Guitars-106563420706171/?modal=admin_todo_tour

Very cool man! I don't have the same experience with the old Japanese beauties as you do, but I did come across a really cool Bradford by Guyatone once. I still have it, one day I'll get around to refinishing it and getting the electronics straight. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0lZY1I7RidU.html

@@ForsytheVideo it's long gone now. Missing electronics was the worse. The bridge was floating, and I didn't know enough about setups, at the time, to get it right. I just gave up on it and ebayed it.

I'd put money on it that it's a teisco. If it's a weird Japanese guitar from the sixties there's a 90 percent chance it's a teisco. The pickups will be hit or miss, I've played amazing sounding ones and some real dogs. If they end up being garbage I'd give that thing a crustier paint job and bung a cheap ceramic humbucker in it and punk it up.
