Bender 4 Life Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 a '60s Italian something...... that vid was from what '66 in London? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyg Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 a '60s Italian something...... Well, I mentioned Eko specifically because they made guitars like this Model 500 3V. and this 700 4v But also because I used to buy stuff from a guy called Roberto Brandoni who bought a truckload of necks, bodies and parts from Eko when the Italian factory closed down in the mid 80s. The parts included pearloid covered bodies and necks with overly fancy inlays plus quite a lot of parts for Vox Teadrop shaped guitars which Eko made for Vox at some period. Eko were the largest electric guitar manufacturer in Italy and they would also make guitars for any company who asked with whatever name they wanted on the headstock. Not unlike Chinese companies today. Roberto put a lot of the guitars together and sold them under the Brandoni name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to trip over one in a pawn shop someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Mac Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I love hearing the riffs Jimmy Page "allowed himself to be influenced by": That is also nearly the same riff as "Kiling Floor" which is another staple... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGIE28q3fEA Luvs me some Howlin' Wolf and all the influence he brought to bear!
