                                           DESCRIPTION & CONDITION

LYLE DOUBLE CUT SOLID BODY SG STYLE GUITAR THAT IS IN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING ORIGINAL CONDITION WITH ONE OF THIS NICEST FINISHES YOU WILL EVER SEE FROM THIS ERA, AND THIS 50+ YEAR OLD BEAUTY LOOKS FOR LIKE 5 YEARS OLD. UNLIKE EVERYONE MOST OF THESE FROM THIS ERA, THIS DOES NOT HAVE THE CLEAR COAT MARKS THAT LOOK LIKE THE URETHANE WAS BRUSHED ON THIN WITH SHRINK MARKS ETC. SO WHEN I FOUND THIS YEARS AGO I JUST HAD TO HAVE IT IN MY COLLECTION BECAUSE IT LOOKS SO SHARP. IT DOES HAVE SOME MINOR BLEMS & SCRATCHES BUT LOOKS LIKE THE DAY I GOT IT AND IT IS A VERY NICE GUITAR THAT WAS VERY WELL CARED FOR. YOU CAN TELL ITS NOT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AS THE FRETS HAVE MINIMAL WEAR AND IT IS A BLAST TO PLAY & IT SOUNDS GREAT AS WELL. ALL OF THE CHROME TRIMMINGS ARE BRIGHT & SHINEY, AND ALSO IN AMAZING CONDITION AND NOT OLD, WORN, AND HAZY LOOKING LIKE MOST YOU WILL SEE. IT ALSO HAS ITS ORIG. TREMOLO ARM WHICH IS VERY RARE, AS THEY ARE USUALLY ALWAYS MISSING, ALONG WITH ITS CORRECT HARD CASE & ORIGINAL PERIOD CORRECT JAPAN STRAP THAT IS VERY 60'S-70'S GROOVY !!

SO PLEASE SHOP AROUND & IF YOU FIND ONE COMPLETE AND IN NICER CONDITION I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT. 

I ALSO HAVE THE PERIOD CORRECT PIGGY BACK DUAL CHANNEL AMPLIFIER  THAT I AM GOING TO HOLD OFF ON SELLING, UNTIL I SELL THE GUITAR, IN  CASE THE BUYER WANTS TO PURCHASE IT, AND IT IS ALSO RARE AND IN    BEAUTIFUL CONDITION.

                                                                                 SOME HISTORY

The Matsumoku Company manufactured many Lyle branded guitars in Japan from (approximately) 1965 to 1972 until they were bought and shut down by Norlin Corporation, Gibson's parent company at the time".

This Lyle S-726 Guitar S-726 SG-style electric guitar is from the mid 60's to early 70's. Lyle was a brand built in Japan at the Matsumoku factory alongside Univox, Aria, Arai, and other guitar brands. This particular model was built in Japan; the exact date is unknown as the Matsumoku factory wasn't diligent about keeping track of serial numbers for all the brands under their roof.
