    Just came across the guitar from a buddy out of state. Has no idea what it is. Looks like a Hangstrom Viking, but headstock and f-holes,etc aren't correct. Japanese knockoff?

    that whammy/tailpiece shows up on many 60's era japanese guitars...many aria's...

    headstock looks similar to japanese teisco or sekova

    good sleuthing sb!

    eastwood actually made a repro of it a few years ago...sans the vintage parts of course!

    it gained in popularity due to dan auerbach of the black keys using one

    the pups while looking like typical humbuckers are valco/supro single coils (great pups)

    cheers

    Silvertonebetty,

    Great job of figuring out the guitar. Valco guitars are generally quite good. Every one that I have played was a winner.
