I picked up this "Domino" at the local thrift store on Friday. It is super clean and was amazingly easy to set up. I haven't put it down since. I actually really like the way these pickups sound. If anyone has any info on this model please let me know, it a keeper.

Very nice.Your guitar was actually made at the Matsumoku factory. They made guitars for many different distributors. Similar models will be found with many different brand names on the headstock, Domino being one, and Aria, Ventura, and Conqueror being a few of the others. Can't find exactly what model Domino would have assigned to your guitar, but it's very similar to this Matsumoku made Aria Diamond 1203t,made from about 1968 - 1970.

Nice Score! I'm getting really interested in these Japanese 335 knock-offs.
Seems to me if they a great players a P/U upgrade, if needed, would make a smoking guitar for no money.
