Today I got this Recco branded 4 pickup guitar. One of the many Teisco brands. The woman who sold it said her dad bought it back in the '60's, brought it home and it pretty much sat in the closet after that in it's original cardboard box, which is now falling apart. Also came with original vinyl gig bag in mint never used condition which I forgot to photo. He never owned a amp so didn't play it, so guitar is mint too. Guitar has 45 years of grime on it from sitting should clean up real nice. No pitting of metal Looks like new.Image

Congratulations! I really like the redburst. There seems to be a mild case of Teisco fever on the forum these days. :lol: How does it play? And sound?

I think it's missing two knobs, four pickups but only two volume knobs. :lol:

Very nice old and weird guitar find! I love old and weird, but I never seem to stumble onto what you lucky ducks seem to find. Dang. :roll:

Let alone at such a great price!

Wow!


Amazing the things you find. It's hard to see the grime from the pictures, but it looks like it is in great shape!

Wow, a four pup guitar. I think the last time I saw that was on a Kent guitar. Every local music store had Kent guitars.

Kent and Recco were both made by the same company, Teisco.

Nice find. I'll bet you don't come across a deal like that too often. It seems like if you get one of those guitars, they're usually beat up.
