Hi

I think it was made in the mid to late 1960''s by Matsumoku out of Japan and imported by Bruno. They're meant to be like Fender Deluxe/Stringmaster and I've heard they actually play and sound pretty durn good.

Hope that helps.

Cheaper than a $20,000..00 Frypan,but still way over priced.

1960s Japanese copy of a Stringmaster. I had one Exactly like it with a Guyatone logo. This company made lap steels, consoles, and electric guitars branded for Guyatone, Aria, Conqueror, Jedson, and probably others. Many models look the same but have different brand names.

Here's a Forum thread with lots of info about these guitars --->
