Circa 1965 Tarrega FT-112

When I first opened the super-cool brown and tan chipboard case, I thought this Tarrega FT-112 looked just like another Swedish make, Goya. After some thorough investigating, it looks very possible that the parent company, Bjårton, just might have in fact built both lines. 

These finely made Swedish instruments were distributed by Fender in the US. 

This model was likely made in the mid 1960's, and is unbelievably clean!! Some pic marks on the front, but other than that this instrument is in amazing condition. 

Super fun and affordable vintage!!
