Description
English: Matsumoku 335-style thinline hollowbody, right selector, 12-string (1960s ca.1967)

My guitar is still in the shop, so today at band practice, I played Steve's twelve string.

I also played his Les Paul knockoff, his Telecaster Squier, Stacy's bass, and Doug's hollow body.

The 6 string versions of this model were also sold as/under:

etc. And these combination of OEM brands suggest Matsumoku as OEM supplyer.[8]

Also, possibly related models includes followings:

  • Yamaha SA503TVL Troy Van Leeuwen signature (2000s) — as a reincarnation in 2000s.
  • Vox Ultrasonic (ca.1968) — whole design, especially right-side pickup selector, suggest several relation.
  • Harmony H75, H76, H77, H78 (1960s) / Silvertone 1454, 1485 — as an origin of Conrad model

"Bruno Conqueror - This Gibson ES335 copy is a very high quality instrument for a budget guitar. It is fully bound with both front and back made from a single panel of wood. Note that even the f holes have binding on this one. The single coil pickups are hot and tend to feedback at stage volume but it is a great instrument for recording. I love the deep red marbling in the pickguards. I' ve seen similar guitars branded Conrad, Lyle, Orpheous, and Univox."
