Sakai (~Teisco/Kawai) - Style EG-3T (Hertiecaster) - -

Sakai made EG-3T guitar. This guitar was among a series of models that were widely sold in German malls and music stores in the late 1960s and early 1970s, nick-named "Hertiecaster" (because they were famously sold at mall chain "Hertie"). Sakai took over production of entry-level Japanese guitars, along with Chushin, after Kawai/Teisco (Kawai had bought Teisco from insolvency in 1968) stopped producing such guitars in about ~1970. A similar Kawai-made model of this variant exists, yet it sports slightly different pickups and a solid wood body. This is the Sakai made one.
