Eko/Melody 295.
Strangely reminiscent of a Rickenbacker, this beauty is labelled an Eko but is actually a Melody. The Italian manufacturer Melody had first appeared in 1961 but were owned by Eko from 1964 - 1972 and essentially just became a subsidiary, putting the Eko badge on what were previously their own guitars.
1965 Eko Florentine Bass.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Intersphere, may I please present to you for consideration this beautiful mid 60’s Eko Florentine bass…

1965 Eko Jazz and some choice outboard.
Not only an Eko Jazz but it’s going into a Vox Head through a Roland Space Echo! These 70’s tape delay units have been snapped up by pretty much every major electronic musician out there, so good luck finding one.

I mean, yes, it’s an incredible looking guitar. Yes, it sounds amazing as well. Yes, it’s from a cool manufacturer, but never mind all that - JUST LOOK AT THE LENGTH OF THAT TREMELO ARM!!!!

Good old Eko, bless their soft flowing curves and sweet tones. Jazz flows effortlessly from them but stick on a touch of overdrive and you’re in Beatles/British Invasion territory.

Boy, they really knew how to design guitars back then, didn’t they? Looking like a Hofner Viola or Club Bass crossed with an SG, you’d almost be forgiven for not caring what it sounded like…
We’re long overdue some Eko madness round these parts so here’s a triple cutaway to whet your whistle!
This ‘Les Paul’-esque Bass comes with an onboard Treble/Bass Booster AND Distortion. What more could you possibly need?
Made in the 60’s by Eko, apparently from a job-lot of buttons and selectors. I mean, just look at all the possible combinations! But then, if its good enough for Jimi…..yep, he played one.
