The white one. It looks almost like a Duo Sonic, but not quite?

I can't answer that question but, it's nice to see a fellow Japanese Motors listener.

Recent discovery via Pandora. Definitely digging them! Makes me wish I was in LA and headed for the beach though...

looks like a duo sonic had sex with some kind of Eastwood guitar.
I can't get a good look at the headstock.

Kosta, I'm not really certain, but it looks like it might be a Domino Spartan or an Olympic. They're very similar models. I don't even remember the difference.

Domino Spartan:
Wingo! It looks like we might have a match. The only difference I'm seeing is the fretboard. The one in the video looks like ebony while the pictured one is rosewood. The inlays are also off-center on the video guitar and the pics I've seen are all centered dot or blocks. I'm guessing it's a Spartan with a different fretboard/maybe complete neck.

Nice song, Kosta! Makes me want to go to a beach in the 50's too!
Here's another hint:
A buddy of mine has a guitar that looks almost exactly the same but is Aria branded. That thing plays friggin' amazing. I love it.

And I was just thinking how I needed yet another budget 60's guitar brand to obsess over... Need one of these bad. It's like the Strat I see in my dreams!
