I'm located in Western Massachusetts.approx. : If your interested, I will send a photo of it. : I bought my Red Egmond Electric semi-acoustic bass in 1965. Hoping to hear from any of you guitar 'rockers' out there. Any information that could be provided would be appreciated. I don't really have any sentimental attachment to it, so if anyone is interested in it, I might consider selling it if the price or value could be determined. I would like to get an idea of how old it is or possibly when it was made. I am still trying to research it through the serial number. Despite the few dings, I would say it is in excellent condition otherwise. Since he stocked various instruments, I can't say how long it might have been in his store. I remember it being in my mothers possession in the mid to late 60's, but I don't know if her father ordered it directly from the manufacturer, a wholesaler, or bought or traded it through his music store. I have been unable to go back to locate that picture. I did a good bit of research on this particular guitar and found a picture of John Lennon in his early pre-Beatles years playing a very close looking Egmond guitar, but that was a while ago and I never printed it out. There are a few slight dings on the edges, but there is absolutely no wear or scratches on it since no one ever played it. It has only been out of the case maybe a half dozen times. My mother played the piano and wanted to learn to play the guitar, but never had the time. He played almost every musical instrment and also owned a music shop and bought, sold and traded instruments, sheet music, records and albums, etc. My mother got this guitar back in the mid to late 60's from her father, who was a professional musician. The head is an arch with the name Egmond lettered in gold and a metal plate with 3 screws between the head and neck 'Made in Holland.' The serial # is imprinted on the reverse side of the head vertically between the tuning heads. The guard is white and the bridge is adjustable with two round rollers. The body is a golden color center with darker shading around the outside.
