Ted Crocker tells me that CBN has a Teisco group, and that I need to share pictures of my Hoard with you folks. So, here I am.... Anonymous Pick, we need to talk.

Recently, a friend of mine, that is an auctioneer at the local farmer's market calls me all excited and tells me that I need to grab some cash and get to his auction A.S.A.P.

Well, I know this guy is not the excitable kind, so of course I jumped into the truck and went to see what all the excitement was about.

Well, here it is.... an incredible hoarder stash of vintage 60's Teisco Guitars. In all their grungy, rusty goodness. I managed to get the entire stash.

I will be taking a few days to post everything, and yes they are in rough shape... but, still well worth the effort to rescue them.

Fantastic find!

They can be rehabbed into useful guitars. About 15 years ago I snagged a Global (rebranded Harmony) at a storage unit auction. It had been hanging on the wall in a seaside bar for years and was a real mess. I cleaned it up and replaced the corroded electronics and tuners. Now it's my favorite slide guitar.

I know it's technically not a Japanese make, but I have also refurbished a vintage Kay K-300 that had been a wall hanger that was covered in layers of house paint.

Nice job on that one.

I'm partial to this one ;) But seriously, these are so cool- The designers approached design much

And the Silvertone Acoustic in the hoard was converted into a killer Resonator Guitar.

Beautiful reso! Wow!
