So I've been questioning about these EKO electric guitars. I understand they are usually really cheap, but they are usually also vintage?
This is definitely what I discover interesting. Genesis performed EKO 12 strings in the earlier 70s. Therefore did Jimmy Page and a lot of additional bands and artists. My issue is usually why?
They appear very exclusive I must say. I've attempted an EKO 12 chain and it was wonderful to enjoy on, and the sound was extremely fine. I didn't know they were so cheap and I has been kinda shocked when I discovered out as well.
How do you feel about these electric guitars? The audio and the pIayability on these vintagé types?
Any experience with EKO 6 guitar strings as properly? Obviously they can be found and are out now there, but since there are very few Eko devices in North North america to bégin with (I dón't think théy were ever markéted in thé US - if só, only very briefIy,) One óf my early musicaI partners had oné, bought in thé mid-60s, probably in Boston, so they were marketed here. I seldom played it, but remember it as being really playable, and thinking of the reduced price options in the 60s, not really a bad axe for a newbie or impoverished musician.
I must admit that for most likely not very much even more, you probably could have got gotten a Balance Sovereign or actually a Gibsón LG-1, a great deal more boom for the buck. Genesis played EKO 12 guitar strings in the earlier 70s.
Therefore do Jimmy Page and a great deal of various other companies and artists. My issue will be why? Well, they were.available. And, I must include, inexpensive (at minimum, we could afford them). Consequently, my companion got a Ranger, ánd myself, I experienced a. FRAMUS, yes sir, no much less (12 guitar strings, the two óf them, of course.
Why just 6 strings on a flute when you could possess 12 strings? At minimum two occasions better, right?) Those items were. Well, they resembled electric guitars. They got 12 guitar strings when we had been capable to pay for replacing the broken types, if not really, there usually were good enough left to create suitable noise.
I remember digging a opening in the sand on a beach one evening with the Ranger. (did not remember the cause for the hole, tho.). I've under no circumstances performed an Eko electric guitar I would want to own.
Your experience obtaining a nice-sounding one particular is usually an knowledge I haven't yet had. Certainly they exist and are usually out right now there, but since there are usually very few Eko equipment in Northern Usa to bégin with (I dón't think théy were ever markéted in thé US - if só, only very briefIy,) I've yét to run intó any thát did much fór me.
Whm Thé Italian language Eko guitars were brought in and distributed in the Us by the Lo Duca brothers in Milwaukee and had been fairly common around right here. They furthermore imported German wine and bottles. That part of the business is nevertheless heading. A guy that used to perform in our choir had an Eko acoustic. It was horrible.
It acquired been slipped and the lower fight was broke and got divided from the top. It had been sort-of ré-glued but under no circumstances properly humidiied. There has been still a several-inch lengthy gap along the holding where the top wood was damaged out and never ever replaced. The Gibson-like get guard has been more loosened than attached, with numerous of the factors sticking out at least 1/8' and sections of it damaged off.

But he held plugging away with it for decades until so significantly of the the top had divided from the edges once again that you could simply about stay your hand inside. It had been completely unplayable. At that stage he replaced it with á no-name transfer that seemed like a electric guitar. I believe he has been as treated as we were. A guy in the choir I'meters in today offers an Eko solid body electric.
I've under no circumstances heard it plugged in, but it provides this gruesome garish vintage appearance that's so unappealing that it's in fact type of great. The German Eko guitars were imported and dispersed in the Us by the Lo Duca siblings in Milwaukee and had been fairly common around here. They furthermore imported Italian wine and bottles. That component of the company is nevertheless going. Along with what Anthony got to say about Eko electric guitars in Boston ma, there were probably a few regional vendors. There must not have been one in the Kansas Town area, even though, because they suré weren't anywhere in that area that I actually saw. Most of them thát I've seen and performed were introduced back to the US either by GI's i9000 who'd offered in Europe or military services dependents who lived over presently there.
My striper player and longtime musical technology companion Karl increased up in a series of United states military angles, including in Italia, where he joined up with his very first music group as the bass participant. He got an Eko electric powered striper as his 1st device. He relates to it ás 'the Thud striper,' which tells you all you need to understand about its musical technology qualities.
While in the military services and positioned in Southwest florida, Italy in 1969, my spouse bought a new, EKO Ranger XlI as a present to me. As numerous have stated, it had been built like a container and very weighty. My wife's mothers and fathers are Italian language and when we came back to the Claims in 1972, her dad fell in like with the 'German 12 thread' that I delivered house. After conferring with my spouse, I gave it tó him. In 1974 his house was strike by lightning and fairly much damaged in a main fire.
The home was gutted by the fireplace and further damaged by the water put intó it by the firéfighters. Fast forwards to 2008: When I determined to open up 'Re-Tunés' my fathér-in-law donatéd a few of old guitars he got. Very much to my surprise, as I opened up an odd, dirty looking situation, there had been the EKO Rangér XII. I got completely ignored about it, supposing it experienced been wrecked in the open fire. The best had many finish breaks, but the solid wood was still solid. The large pickguard acquired curled from the warmth of the fire, but was still attached to the guitar in a few of areas. I picked it up ánd strummed it.
lt acquired not been recently touched in 34 yrs and was still almost in melody and other than the finish cracks, it was structurally strong and pretty playable. I have got a 'Encyclopedia of Electric guitars' at the store that functions some of the notable guitars constructed over the yrs by all manufacturers.
The EKO Ranger XII is usually included and, although not particularly valuable, has developed a pursuing in the collector's groups. I cleansed it up, ré-strung it, ánd it has been a good taking part in and good sounding 12 chain. I offered it for selling and certain more than enough, a enthusiast of EKO electric guitars snatched it up, impressed with the tale behind it ánd how it made it the fire. Tough electric guitars.
Thanks a lot for the response men! The reason I'm asking is because I live in Norwegian and there are generally two songs shops right here. And they both such really bad. They do have got a few guitars but they are usually badly tuned and not really very well wanted after at all. I had been originally thinking of a Mártin HD28 or a Gibson J45 or something. But they are no place to be found here in nearby stores.
So I can't try them out before I buy them. Furthermore, the costs are usually about three instances as significantly as they are usually in the US. A Martin HD28 goes for about 4-5000 USD, which I believe is a little bit firm. What I need is certainly a flute with a large body, great variety from both underside and higher notes simply because well as actually low activity so I don't hurt my fingers any even more than I've already performed.
I put on't have got to make use of a capo to be capable to enjoy my fingerstyle stuff. I do perform rhytm flute as well. Therefore I'meters in a pickle here basically.
Some pictures of my fresh flute. It is certainly an EKO Rangér VI. It's i9000 stamped 1968, produced in Italia and it furthermore has a personal. (I think it might be handwritten) It plays and it appears awesome. Offers some cracks but they're also just on the clear coating. The bolt on neck of the guitar feels great. There'beds also a elevation adjustable bridge.
I guess these were fairly common back again in the day time in Europe. Double guaranteed entire body. The tuners are usually really great. Never seen that type before.
Anyway I really like quarry. One of thé nicest acoustics l've ever experienced. I might make this the oné acoustic I keep for life.The very first pic is usually the one that appears the closest to the real color/shade. I definitely keep in mind these electric guitars from the time period.
They were inexpensive - around £30 when the cheapest Martin was about £150 and a J-45 was £100. They certainly looked OK, and the necks were well-made and coiuld be set-up for a wonderful actions. But the 100% laminated body didn't specifically make them tone-monstérs. As my kid said a season or two back, after enjoying a very much more costly electric guitar than the Eko, ' After enjoying the Gibson J50 and the Taylor 214E, that's like enjoying a cardboard container'. But, on balance,they had been the right thing in the correct location at the correct time at the correct price. So many British CW groups presented a rhythm guitar player/lead singer with an (eIectrified) Eko. At minimum they stayed in melody!
Jimbo had written.But the 100% laminated physiques didn't specifically create them tone-monstérs. My flatmate provides a Martin dreadnought so it's become interesting evaluating the two. I can honestly say that EKO'h can simply keep their very own. Agreed, the laminate/laquer is definitely OTT (although Tribi9's really looks good for as soon as) they're also possibly the heaviest acoustics out now there but they still have beautiful tone. Deep, warm, resonant.
Quite vivid chimey on the higher side too. The Martin will be definitely more balanced method, method lighter but I really get the darkish boominess of my EKO't. I actually purchased the 80's i9000 model because I'd go through they had been slightly lighter in excess weight but I nevertheless course my '73 as my quantity 1.
Great guitars Porky and Zenjenga. I believed the various EKO headstock logo design had been for guitars made earlier than mine Porky but I find was incorrect.
I suppose they went back in the 80's i9000 to the older logo design. I perform concur they appear different but it is a wonderful various.
I'michael not also certain how to explain. It can be not very loud but the audio is really satisfying. The just factor that had been incorrect with quarry is usually that some óf the frets were slipping out.
I acquired to tap a few of them back again in and others I totally eliminated and placed them back again in. They're also fine today and put on't seem to become moving much. Better picture of the inside sticker.
