Teisco K-56
A stunning reissue of a 60's icon. The K series of guitars were a wild looking set of guitars by anyones standards and a legendary Japanese product that was originally offered for sale in the 60's. The original Tesico's are seriously cool instruments but often require some TLC and modifications to get them up to modern players demanding standards.
This K-56 reissue (built by Kawai) is a different story, boasting excellent playability and improved design choices that make this guitar ready for the road right out of the box!
