Up for grabs at the Japanese Guitar Company is a fantastic mid-1960s Kawai-built Thinline Fully Hollow Body. Produced during the height of the Japanese guitar boom, this instrument was built in the Kawai factory and originally distributed under badges like Prestige, Kimberly, or Teisco.
This model features the highly iconic "hook" 6-in-a-line headstock and a deeply vibrant sunburst finish over a fully hollow maple body. The back of the body features a stunning, tight laminate flame that looks absolutely killer under lights.
Under the hood, it retains its original chrome-ring single-coil pickups and factory electronics plate—complete with the original fluted "V" and "T" knobs and 3-way toggle. These pickups have that classic, low-output microphonic chime and woody bite that modern indie, lo-fi, and slide players actively hunt down.

This is an authentic vintage player’s piece with decades of genuine character:
  • Finish & Wood: The body front shows beautiful, extensive natural finish checking (see photos) that gives it a true relic look. No structural splits or dynamic body cracks.
  • Hardware Modifications: To keep this guitar stable and gig-ready, the original factory tremolo tailpiece and metal roller bridge have been replaced with a rock-solid fixed chrome trapeze tailpiece and a carved wooden floating bridge wedge.
  • Neck & Playability: The neck profile is chunky and straight. The rosewood fingerboard is healthy, and the original small frets still have life left in them for a vintage player.
If you’re looking for a uniquely styled, resonant MIJ hollowbody that stands out from the usual crowd, this Kawai is ready to plug in and bring some serious vintage vibe to your rig.
