A 1970's Japanese made SG body guitar produced for import and retail by Rose Morris of Denmark Street, under the'Avon' badge. Fairly standard Japanese entry evel construction with a Ply body and Mahogany neck, all finished in a translucent brown.
This one appears to have had a sucession of tremolo devices fitted at some stage, definitely a Bigsby and possibly a Vibrola too, the resultant carnage in the way of four holes have been filled and dotted in with cellulose. Aside from this there are a number of edge knocks and chips, again largely filled with matching laquer. And some pretty significant laquer cracks around the neck pocket. It also appears to have had a suplementary strap button fitted at some point. From a playing viewpoint everything functions as it should and the faux humbuckers produced a fairly sweet and quite toppy tone, although not terribly high output. The action is set at around 2.0mm accross the fingerboard at the 12th fret and the neck is of a comfortable and full profile. The trapeze tailpiece is probably a bit unorthadox but it does divert the eye sucessfully away from the holes in the top!

Apologies if this sounds harsh, but as usual the dishonourable few ruin it for everyone. Having been a keen guitarist and involved in the Music business in one form or another for the last 25 years, and a professional restorer of Antiques, Treen and Objet, for the last 15 years, revival-guitars represents the culmination of two passions. Everything which we offer for sale has been through our workshop for checking and (normal errors notwithstanding) is what we say it is. We are not drop shippers, we are not bulk importers of guitars or parts and we believe that any instrument, no matter how humble, has a use and a value, and can be impoved upon! Being in business doesn't mean we're happy to accept contact from rude or obnoxious folk, manners cost nothing, and besides which, asking nicely is far more likely to get you what you want.
