I plan to replace the bridge, set it up and keep it forever.Īcoustic Guitars. We can't talk price here, but I paid very little.

(or whatever the factory that now puts out modern Ibanez's was called back then.) I think they're one of the best kept secrets around. Penco made Martin and Gibson style acoustic guitars. My information is that they were built for the Philadelphia Music Comapny by Ibanez and branded Penco. The rosewood one I played sounded very much like a D-35. I'd compare the mahogany with a Martin D-18. But even with that, the thing sounds amazing. Which is a really good thing because it's all warped and separated and the bolt is the only thing holding it on. Niiden akustiikka tehtiin yleensä, mutta ei aina, laminoidulla selällä ja sivuilla ja usein laminoiduilla yläosilla. Penco-tuotemerkki oli suhteellisen korkealaatuista. And the bridge is bolted on, like a Gibson. Penco oli tuotemerkki kitaroita valmistetaan noin 1974-1978 samassa tehtaassa (Hoshino Gakki) on Japanissa kuin Ibanez kitarat ja jakoivat Philadelphia Music Company. It has a Gibsonesque bridge with the screw saddle setting.

Tough to tell, but I think it's laminated. The one I purchased has a spruce top and mahogany back and sides. I agree with it being thin, and it had laminated rosewood back and sides. I played one that was the studio knock around guitar a few years back while directing a voice session and it was amazing. I had been keeping my eyes open for a Penco. It rocks!Īnd about two months ago I purchased a Mid 70's Penco Dread.

I recently changed out the hardware and replaced the pick-ups witgh a Dimarzio Super Distortion and a P90 for my oldest son. I am the original owner of a '74 or '75 Penco Les Paul Black Beauty.
