I had a Realistic back in 1968 I’m guessing. What I remember is the neck was pretty decent and the inside smelled great. It was made in Japan, and I think there were a few models the first year Radio Shack carried them and the ES-335 copy was the top of the line. I also remember going back the next year and being amazed that they were all junk then. I found one picture of it that I’ll try to attach here…
