Tuscany Guitars (Mark II and Celebrity bass copies)

Postby 101Volts » Fri Aug 21, 2009 12:58 pm

After browsing Ebay UK I came across this guitar.

I present to you... The Tuscany Mirror.

:shock:

Seems like they have Celebrity Basses too.

Here's the eBay auction for the Mirror. Seems like these are cheap to get.

And here's their website. Sadly, There aren't many dealers of these guitars. There is only one in America and that is in Florida. Way too far for me to go.

Great discovery 101 :o ...those Tuscany's are really quite attractive and appear to be quality instruments. I'd like my Tuscany Mirror with a trem arm though :) (wonder if the use of "Mirror" was influenced by the Moseley story of the famous "flip-over Strat" :roll: ). Thanks for sharing with pics and all.

You're quite welcome Veenture, You could very well add a Stetsbar Les Paul trem to that Mirror though. I have a Stetsbar on my Tele and it works great, No mods required!
