Members streetknight Posted July 21, 2008 Members Share Posted July 21, 2008 This is a Sigma Tele copy that was made in 74-75. From the limited info I can find on the guitar C.F. Martin Co. used the Sigma name for their Jap acoustics. They had Tokai make Tele, Strat, and LP copies in 74-75. I just had it setup by my luthier with 10's, it plays great, all electronics work. It's definately an odd ball Tele. It's cleaned up now and looks better than in the pics. I have a Hardshell case that it fits in I'll let go with it. $200.00 obo/ Trades?

Members streetknight Posted July 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 Here are better pics after the setup. It's missing 1 knob, but everything works and it plays good. I half assed cleaned it up , but didn't oil the fret board or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members frankthomson Posted July 24, 2008 Members Share Posted July 24, 2008 looks damn near identical to my AMPEG HEAVY STUD from the same era. ...and that's a nice guitar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members theweight Posted July 24, 2008 Members Share Posted July 24, 2008 Yeah, Ampegs from that era have the same style headstock. Sigma was Martin's Japanese off brand. This is a nice one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a nice one. Cool, glad to see someone has heard of them. I like the guitar, I'm just having to move and need to liquidate. I'm trying to end up with a hand ful of nicer guitars instead of so many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
