Adorned with lashings of mother of toiletseat, this DiPinto Belvedere Deluxe guitar is highly reminiscent of the weird and wonderful guitars produced in Europe during the 1960s Beat Boom.

Despite its retro looks, it's a modern guitar with modern appointments and playability. The semi-hollow body - beneath all that bling - is of mahogany, whilst the bolt-on maple neck has an ebony fingerboard with star inlays and white binding.

Pickups are a pair of "vintage twang" mini-humbuckers, while a Tune-o-matic bridge and Bigsby vibrato complete the picture.

This guitar is currently being offered for sale on eBay UK with a Buy It Now price of £375.

I'm always on the lookout for eBay deals for our left-handed friends, and reckon that this DiPinto Galaxie 4 is the best of the bunch currently on offer. With a silver sparkle finish, four pickups and pushbutton pickup selectors, this could so easily be a quirky instrument out of 1960s Italy, but the Galaxie 4 is actually a contemporary instrument, obviously with a surf flavour - witness the Jazzmaster-style vibrato.

As played by surf rock act Los Straitjackets.
