Silvertone 1478

1964-1968
Maple…

The 1478 is based on the Harmony H-19 model, which itself was a knock off Fender’s jazzmaster body shape. The rare blue version was only made between 1967 and 1968, and the red is for sale

1964 Fender Jazzmaster

The guitar is gorgeous, the price outrageous. Reblogging Bushdog.

1964 Epiphone Coronet. Nearly two years after Epiphone’s acquisition by Gibson, the Coronet was released in 1959, as a clear child of this alliance. In many ways, It was to Epiphone what the Les Paul Junior is to Gibson: A good basic, reliable student model.

1964 Fender Stratocaster in Fiesta Red. The archetypal Bristish Invasion Strat.

Superb 1964 Meazzi Jupiter guitar

Eric Clapton’s 1964 Gibson ES-335 TDC. He used it extensively throughout his career, from the Yardbirds years up until its auction sale in 2004 at Christie’s, New York, for a little bit less than $850,000.

1964 Jolana Alfa

c 1964 Hopf Saturn 63. Yet another german quality guitar from the 60s. Eastman did a reissue of this guitar in 2006.

Close up of a superb c. 1964 Welson Professional

1964 Wandre Polyphon.

A Jolana Hurricane II from Czechoslovakia, circa 1964

1964 National Newport 84 in seafoam green. Those unusual pie slice inlays on all the Val-pro series

Check out the lines of this 1964 Framus 5/170 Electrona.

This guitar made by the now deceased German constructor has much more detail to offer than an eye can take in a day. Note how the beautiful metallic pickguard delivers a lovely retro-futuristic look, and how that same metallic feel extends to the coils.

The endless number of switches and controls are making me almost as intrigued as the strange bridge and tailpiece.

And what to say about those lines on the bottom horn? Could that be a built in amp?

Would be a joy to place even one finger on this beauty.
