Summary

Description

[correction] This guitar has not vibrato system (tremolo bar), therefore it is

Note: MJ-2 with additional vibrato system, MJ-2L seems introduced later:

Notes

Note1: the design origin (including side-block fret marker seen on JTK1) might can be dated back to 1959 Marco Polo "TL-59", produced by Guyatone, manufactured by Kiso Suzuki Violin:

  • 1959 Guyatone Marco Polo "TL-59". PulseBeatGuitars.com. "The story of this rare Marco Polo guitar started as a production design under the direction of Guyatone House-Brands in 1958. It was built at the Suzuki [i.e. Kiso Suzuki Violin] ... The Marco Polo was styled, more-or-less, after the Fender Jazzmaster-shape with its offset guitars waist. ... extended upper horn and backward sloped lower cut-way. ... Guyatone was also particularly known for their "Gold Screen" pickups. Featuring a Rosewood Fingerboard with Side-Block Fret Markers ..."

Note2: relating model, St. George MJ-2 by Teisco seems to be exported as late as circa 1963.

Note3: similar design was also shared on the later Kawai S-80 with half pickguard model in 1960s, as seen on: 60s Bizarre Guitars, p. 32
