1967 Kawai Teisco Kingston A-2T Swinger - White - w/ Gig Bag
We're fans of the 60's import models from Japan, and this one does not disappoint! This model, the A-2T Swinger, comes from the period in time just after the Kawai/Teisco merger where a few models were produced having features that were exclusive to each brand. Teamwork, making the dream work, and making cool guitars happen. We love it. This oddball shape was specific to the Kingston line. It seems this model was only imported to the US for a short period, possibly only a few months. We just don't see a lot of these, especially in this color. The guitar is all original, with no signs of abuse or bad repairs. The neck is straight, the action is low, and all of the original electronics work as they should. The headstock badge and tremolo arm are missing, but a cool old gig bag is included.
