Its signature feature is the rotating (swivel) neck pickup. It mounts on two screws inside a cutout in the pickguard, so the player can turn it and change its angle under the strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGuyatone introduced the LG-120T on the Japanese domestic market in 1966, and it stayed in production for only a short time. Few examples come up for sale today. Besides the swivel pickup, it has an offset body, three pickups, two slide switches labeled COOL\/HOT and SOLO\/RHYTHM, and a vibrato tailpiece. It is a true piece of 1960s Japanese guitar history. This example carries serial number 6108482, close to other documented 1966-1967 LG-120Ts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e== SPECIFICATIONS ==\u003cbr\u003e- Model: Guyatone LG-120T\u003cbr\u003e- Year: c.1966-1967\u003cbr\u003e- Country of Origin: Japan\u003cbr\u003e- Serial Number: 6108482 (neck plate)\u003cbr\u003e- Color: Metallic Red\u003cbr\u003e- Body: Solid body, offset shape\u003cbr\u003e- Neck: Bolt-on, 4-bolt neck plate\u003cbr\u003e- Fingerboard: Unbound, teardrop-shaped position markers\u003cbr\u003e- Pickups: Three pickups with cream covers; swivel-mounted neck pickup\u003cbr\u003e- Controls: Master Volume, Master Tone\u003cbr\u003e- Switches: Two slide switches (COOL\/HOT, SOLO\/RHYTHM)\u003cbr\u003e- Bridge: Adjustable bridge with vibrato tailpiece\u003cbr\u003e- Tuners: Replaced with locking-type machine heads\u003cbr\u003e- Weight: 3.3 kg (approx. 7.3 lbs)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e== CONDITION ==\u003cbr\u003eOverall: Good\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Body: Honest playwear consistent with age, including scratches, rubbing and finish clouding\u003cbr\u003e- Neck: Straight\u003cbr\u003e- Frets: Approximately 60-70% remaining\u003cbr\u003e- Hardware: Tarnish on metal parts (vintage patina)\u003cbr\u003e- Tuners: Replaced with locking-type machine heads (original screw holes remain visible on the headstock)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll electronics function correctly.

Add the COOL\/HOT and SOLO\/RHYTHM switching, the offset body and the vibrato, and it is a striking example of 1960s Japanese guitar design. It is a fun, characterful instrument to play, and a hard-to-find model for collectors of vintage Made in Japan guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease feel free to message with any questions before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSETUP \u0026amp; INSPECTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCleaned, set up, and inspected by our luthier before shipping:\u003cbr\u003e- Neck relief and action adjusted\u003cbr\u003e- Frets and fingerboard cleaned\u003cbr\u003e- Intonation set\u003cbr\u003e- Tuners and electronics checked\u003cbr\u003eYour instrument arrives ready to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHIPPING FROM JAPAN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Shipped worldwide from Japan with full tracking and insurance\u003cbr\u003e- Carefully packed with protective wrapping, strings detuned to relieve neck tension in transit\u003cbr\u003e- Processed and shipped within 2-4 business days\u003cbr\u003ePlease message us with any questions before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reverty Used Guitars Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67641705758962,"sku":"GUY_LG120T_0928","price":63100.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/3113\/3426\/files\/01_0829dd51-c7aa-4c56-8a61-c3ec715fc97e.jpg?v=1791243382","url":"https:\/\/revertyjapan.com\/products\/c-1966-67-guyatone-lg-120t-swivel-pickup-metallic-red-mij-vintage-bizarre-japan","provider":"Reverty Used Guitars Japan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
