Name That Guitar
Remember that game show from the ’70s called Name That Tune? No? Well it was a game show that was aired in the US starting way back in the 1950s and ran in different formats until the early 1980s. The game pitted two contestants against each other to name a song in as few notes as possible. Well we’re going to try it out but instead of a tune, we’re going to see if we can Name That Guitar!
We were contacted by Dave, a loyal Fretbase reader, who had a couple of pictures of a guitar but didn’t know the maker or model. No one at Fretbase knew either. So we’re asking everyone to take a look at the pictures and see if we can Name That Guitar!
Here are the picture. Just click on the picture to get a bigger view. Put your answers in the comments below.
We will follow up this post with a winner and the name of the guitar, assuming we can figure it out.

It’s a Harmony Stratotone, isn’t it?
I think Eastwood Guitars make a replica.
It’s definitely very close to the Harmony Ritchie Valen’s Signature Stratotone.

The main difference is the headstock pattern. Not sure if that means it’s Kay, Harmony or some other flavor.
