I have seen these guitars stripped of their pickups during guitar shows in the early 1990's. Dealers would buy them and yank the pickups to sell for twice the value of the guitar at that time. Leaving plunderd bodies for sale on the cheap. Wish I would have grabbed one.greg cadmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861227267852486156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734566.post-27259696364583161442012-05-21T20:58:39.790+01:002012-05-21T20:58:39.790+01:00I'm still holding out for a K200 in the seafoa...I'm still holding out for a K200 in the seafoam green/purple burst pattern.fadrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07956080590611971222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734566.post-23490149012734628722012-05-20T19:34:13.116+01:002012-05-20T19:34:13.116+01:00Where?...Where?...Gavin Lloyd Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10937598384359522498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734566.post-62089506669710336742012-05-20T09:32:19.004+01:002012-05-20T09:32:19.004+01:00As a keyboardist and vintage keyboard enthusiast, ...As a keyboardist and vintage keyboard enthusiast, I thought I'd point out that Kustom produced not only guitars but a wacky and wonderful combo organ called (naturally) the Kustom Kombo. Unusually for such an instrument, it had its own high-power amp and speakers built in, and was styled after the company's tuck-and-roll Naugahyde amps. The later Kombo II was a dual-manual organ without speakers but still covered mostly in Naugahyde. You can see them here...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12976792454989718540noreply@blogger.com
