Hey folks here we have another gem, an Authentic Vintage + Super Cool Little Eko Modello 100
Guitar, c. 1965 in a Red Burst finish. This guitar has had a Pro Refurb setup from our mates in the UK at Afterlife Acoustics who are one of the main restorers of the Italian guitar giants Eko and other acoustic guitars. And we quote them below!

This sweet little Eko Modella Archtop is the much less common version of their Modello 100 with the red burst as oppose to the run of the mill amber version.
A comfortable and playable small bodied arch top, thin-line and although 'full size' she measures in at 39 inches long, made in the early 1960's.  

50+ years later, many of these guitars are unplayable.....

Refreshingly, this one plays pretty much just as well as it was when new with a nice low comfortable action courtesy of full professional setup. 

Overall condition above average with light restoration and very good for the year 

No real issues of note, there are character marks as expected and picured, no attempt has been made to refinish these, the nitro finish has mellowed and has an overall great patina and vibe. One tuner button has been replaced with a factory original.

Full Setup + Player ready with nice action and one beauty.

A Vintage Authentic + Super Cool Little Eko Modello 100c. 1965 Red Burst, + Pro Refurb and it lies in a New Gator Hardshell Case to keep it safe for another 50 years! We have owned this for over a year it is one of our favorites here at The Shack!

This guitar has no breaks or repairs, it is not stamped used or is a 2nd and not a B-stock or a blem model.

And please realize that the price of shipping reflects the fact that this guitar comes in a case, so therefore it adds to the weight & size of the package.   At Rocking the Shack, we like guitars in cases, nice and safe! And are also big fans of strap locks! Pickguards are also nice since thery do protect the finish!   At the Shack we do tune ups and set-ups but only when requested by customer, ( a $90.00-$125.00 charge) Unless, at times we feel that a set up would really benefit an instrument then we just do it. Of course every guitar deserves a good set up with new stringsif needed!   At the Shack we keep climate control conditions all year round and the instruments live in a smoke free environment in their cases!  As mentioned before we love cases and strap locks for the safety and protection they offer.  Need we say more!   Pick guards are also nice for protection of the body and when matched up right they can bring out the hidden beauty in an instrument!   
We pride ourselves in offering quality working beautiful instruments for sale. We are great communicators and the best packers and shippers. We ship with Reverb protection through UPS mostly. And we do sell and ship to Canada but cannot list the shipping cost till we know your address. Then we can do an estimate of that cost and send you a offer. 

We spend the time needed to make sure you are a happy camper/customer. It gives us great joy to know someone is playing and enjoying an instrument we have worked on and owned. 

Also please check out our new shop here on Reverb, “ Blue Blue Guitars “, where we are offering “ONLY” Blue Guitars. 

Thanks so much for your interest!
