Here's a thing... the Rocket is a faithful reproduction of the 1960's EKO Rokes guitar from Italy. These guitars were made for the Italian Band The Rokes, who were the #1 Beat combo in Italy and often referred to as the Italian Beatles. One of their songs - 'Piangi con me', became a hit for The Grassroots, an American group, with the English version Let's live for today.

Have to admit we've not heard that song, but this looks cute and comes in lovely colours:) Kinda reminds us of early Teasing Lulu... whaddya mean 'Who?' Tut! Go Google.
