The history described on this book is widely referred (for example, 'Teisco catalog 1974/05'. Guitar Magazine mooks / Rittor Music mook (in Japanese). Teisco monitors can be seen in The Beatles' 1966 concert in Tokyo. They were produced by sub-contractors to fill out the company's catalog as a supplier of combo instruments, but discontinued after the acquisition by Kawai. Teisco marketed drum sets in limited sizes and configurations during the 1960s, sold under the brand name Del Ray. Д«ands such as Hot Chip (UK), Pure Reason Revolution (UK), and Goose (Belgium) are known to use Teisco synthesizers. Teisco also produced a range of synthesizers, with models including the 60F, 110F, 100F, 100P, SX-210, SX-240, and SX-400. It featured a single pickup, volume and tone controls and a rudimentary bridge/tailpiece.

With a scale length of 23.5', it was a student or beginner instrument. Teisco made a short scale bass under the Heit Deluxe name. Other designs may vary, but are all easily distinguishable and unique among subsequent bass designs. This design consisted of a large rectangular chrome pickup with black plastic holding the four poles in one place. Teisco basses are easily identified through a unique pickup design exclusive to the Del Rey series. The VN-2 is used by The Noble Gasses band of Los Angeles, California. However the formal relations between Teisco and these models are not enough verified yet. This instrument, as well as its regular-scale guitar equivalent, can be heard extensively on Blonde Redhead's early albums of the 90's, where they used its wide range to switch between bass and guitar melodies in the course of single songs.ДЄlso, 2 or 4-pickup baritone guitars (27 3/4 inch scale) with a tremolo, known as Demian or Orlando VN-2 or VN-4 ca.1964 manufactured by FujiGen, are often referred as Teisco models. It had an off-set body shape similar to a Jazzmaster, but with an extended top horn, a 'monkey handle' cutout on the left-facing side of the bridge and a Fender-style headstock with an oversized scroll. Teisco six-string bass followed an unusual body shape that was used on one of their guitars. Teisco also produced a six-string bass called TB-64 (or ET-320) in 1964, similar to the Fender Bass VI which was itself an uncommon instrument. TG-64 (guitar version of TB-64 played by Conor Oberst) This is one of the reasons these guitars became popular again during the 90s among many noise artists as a cheaper alternative for the Fender Jaguar or Jazzmaster, which were beginning to attract collector interest. When the strings are attacked behind the bridge, a 3rd bridge sound is created.

Many Teisco guitars had a primitive tailed bridge in their extended tail bridges with limited timbre when used in an extended technique. The light weight of this guitar is a bonus to the sonic attributes. He talked the manager into a trade, took the guitar home, rebuilt it and has played it on stage ever since. He has played Teisco guitars since childhood and just before joining Peter Noone in 2001 found this one from the Teisco 1964 line screwed to the wall at a Guitar Center as junk art.
