CAN YOU TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT THIS GUITAR AND ITS VALUE?
WOULD BE MOST GRATEFUL

ANSWER

Hello, Ruth--

Your guitar is a "EKO" guitar, manufactured in the mid to late 1960's. Most EKO models in average original condition are priced in the $150-$350 price range, depending on condition, originality, and overall appeal.

One distinguishing characteristic of EKO guitars is that they have no brand name on the headstock.
The "D" stands for "Dreadnought"--the body style of your guitar.

There are some people who say that these KD-28 guitars were manufactured by the "Kay" guitar company. This, however cannot be correct, as the Kay company never manufacture guitars in Italy.

Best Wishes,
Lynne

EKO or K?
by: Cool Col

Just bought a battered one of these from local car boot for £5!

Its an EKO. A kay would not have the good quality adjustable bridge that this one has. I also have an EKO Ranger 12 with the same type. Hope to sell it on ebay soon for about £20 - £30?

I bought one of these myself way back in 1981 (and it's still going strong (-ish). I always thought it was a Kay - that was certainly how it was labeled by the shop I bought it from.

KAY
by: Anonymous

Its a Kay guitar. I have one myself - its a myth that they are unnamed EKOs - but they do have lots of similarities and were made well into the 1980s.
