Kawai/Regina with Kay neck

[lordbizarre]

I've a mid 60's (chrome pickguard)electric that I identifie as a Regina(found in "60's bizarre guitars/Rittor Music Tokyo",page 65 n°28).
It has a Kawai pu (& hardware ??) with a built-on non-original Kay neck.
Question : has anyone a Regina neck or a Goldmax neck(same page n°31)and/or a Kay body(K-1160) to complete one -or two guitars and/or more info about the Japanese Regina brand?
...or can someone translate the part of page 65 n°28 untill 33???...
It's NOT the best of guitar one can find, but surely the rarest & unknown that are the greatest challenge...also sprach I...
thanks !!!

Hi Ivan,

I don't have your parts but I do currently have a translator working on the Bizarre Guitars Book. I spoke with Michael Wright and he told me that to his knowlege no one has translated BG. She's not working very quickly, but I have confidence that ultimately we'll have a good translation. So far she has sent me a translation of the Guyatone and Teisco Company history sections. I'll ask her to translate your figure captions next time we communicate. sb

That's great news. I thought of hiring a translator myself, but have other priorities right now (like translating Czech guitar info before I get around to dealing with Japanese ) . Definitely let us know how it works out.
