1967 CARMELO CATANIA Type "5" (left) / no brand sicilian guitar (right)


This was my cheesy VERY first guitar (left). My Dad bought it as a graduation present in Catania (Sicily), June 1966.
It fell down the stairs in November and it was replaced by a cheap handmade arch top which died after I tried to modified it to a thinline.
I finally had my EKO model 100 at the beginning of 1967, and still own it.
Six years ago I bought from a Gipsy this almost exact replica of my first guitar. Only the pickguard and tailpiece are different than my old one's.
