So one of my beasties, was an unlabeled number I'd picked up many moons ago as a beater guitar. It's the one on the right.

Looks like it was a Silvertone, and they are re-releaseing it, with a tremolo.

Kinda neat.

well  ..  thats  just  hella    kewl  !!!!!

Nice beater! I love those shapes. The control plate is way cool.... Looks like yours has gold foils? ....

What is the one on left ? she's really beautiful.

No label on it, no idea. The neck style is very similar to a Kay I just picked up, same style tuning pegs, string retainer bar, zero fret and binding with no side dots.
Yeah, the right hand one has DeArmond (or D something) stamped on the back of the pickguard.

Yep, the one on the left could be a Kay, but Kay guitars had various head shapes so it's hard to say. Anyway, she's beautiful !
