Re: Bruno Conqueror

I have one exactly like yours, my father played it in his band in the mid 60's, and it's a beautiful piece of craftsmanship.

: About 25 years ago, my best friend gave me his first electric guitar that he owned, a Bruno Conqueror. I remember he played it in a band I had at UConn in the late 1960's until he got an Epiphone 335. I've never seen another Bruno either. This guitar is in excellent condition and is a two pup (single coils), double cutaway,
: f hole, pearloid headstock & floating pearloid pickguard, free wooden based bridge with adjustable saddles.It has a slim fast bound neck, rectangular perloid markers, with an adjustable neck rod, the color is reddish orange sunburst and very pretty. It plays fine, however, the pots could use some cleaning or use. The guitar is made in japan (based on the neck plate) but there is no other identifying marks or serial numbers that I know of. With the rest of my guitars at hand, I never play it. It mostly sits in its original case . I do not have a clue to its value.

I have a Bruno Conqueror 6 string flat top, It's the same design and size as a stella H 929 but with a smaller scale neck. The color is out of the world with a warm cherry flame top. Plays pretty well,neck is straight, came with nylon strings on it...that's wrong but might have keep the neck stright all these years. As for the origin of these brunos, I think they're from the kawai factory,which took over teisco in 1978. The kent accoustics have the same exact machine heads. Some early kents were guyatone made. Mine is a typical knock off from the stella/Harmony parlor guitar design. I sell it for $150 plus shipping. The color is out of this world...almost as hip as a colorrama harmony guitar. email me if you want to buy it. It's more than rare,it could be of historical importance. I don't see any of these around. sjalexandertrader@yahoo.com pearloid headstock & floating pearloid pickguard, free wooden based bridge with adjustable saddles.It has a slim fast bound neck, rectangular perloid markers, with an adjustable neck rod, the color is reddish orange sunburst and very pretty.
