A Vintage and RARE 1964 Guyatone Kent Tenor Acoustic Guitar with the original Vinyl Gigbag!

These cool Tenor guitars were made by Guyatone in Japan from 1964 thru 1967. The only year Kent had the Oval Soundhole label was in 1964. Thats how we are dating it. See pic 5.

We have had many Tenor guitars over the years. Mostly Harmony's. This is the first MIJ Tenor we have had. They are traditionally tuned CGDA like a mandolin but I like to tune them to the top four strings of a 6 string guitar. Easier for us guitar players to manage. DGBE.

I cleaned it up and revealed the awesome original Sunburst finish on this Birch guitar and just had to get it put back together.. Our Tech did a great job with the setup..It plays now with awesome easy playing action with no fret buzzes. Nice low action on this Tenor. No sore fingers playing this one all night!

The guitar has a 23 inch scale neck and nice skinny 1 1/4 inch nut. The necks on these are very thin. Fun to play. It weighs only 2 lbs 10 ozs. I would call it a Parlor size. The lower bout measures 13 inches wide and its 37 inches long in total length. Fun little guitar that plays and sounds great. Very loud for such a small guitar!

No cracks that needed any attention on the body... The original frets are in great shape. Original USA Waverly Open Back Deluxe Tuners work great. The Kent logo is still nice and bright. A very nice guitar for this vintage.

This guitar looks great but its not perfect..superficial dings and scratches as you can see in the pics.. Its used and vintage.

Check out the original Vinyl Case. You never still see these with these guitars. The bottom zipper that closes the case is still with it and working. Only the handle is missing. It will be a nice original carry case for you. A true relic case for your cool vintage Tenor Guitar!

Cool guitar but vintage so its sold as is no returns. Thanks for respecting that.
