1958 SUPRO Ranchero Electric Archtop










1958 Supro Ranchero. The late 50's would see some of the most garish industrial design of the decade. The car tail-fin and pompadour alike would both reach unforeseen heights. The Supro Ranchero was a guitar clearly designed in that milieu. Though this 16 inch laminate arch top has a western name, its tone is all Chicago. The single coil Valco pickup is warm and best suited for rhythm and blues; but, turn up the slap-back echo and you have an excellent Rockabilly rhythm guitar. The 1-5/8" nut width and short scale neck aren't going to slow anyone down. Has some general wear on the finish (it's 55 years old). Comes with original faux alligator skin case.

$700
