The Toledo series were the cheapest guitars that Egmond ever made and they were considered being student, or beginners, guitars. The Toledo series came on the market in the early (or mid) 50's and they were made until 1974. Along the way, the conventional name has varied. In the beginning it was the G 105 series, where the cheapest model was the G 105/0, that corresponds to the Toledo P1 or Student in the 1969 catalog. The most lavish and expensive model was the G 105/4, that corresponds to the Toledo M2 in the 1969 catalog. The Toledo S1 is probably the one that was made in the largest numbers. It was a cheap variant with the whole body made of Birch ply, with sunburst painting.



In 1956 George Harrison begun playing on an Egmond 105/0, that in the UK was marketed as the Rosetti 276. In 2003 his guitar was sold at an auction for £276000:-.

My guitar is a Toledo S1. It is not that easy to determine the precise year of manufacturing but a well reasoned guess is the time period from 1963 to 1968. It was a little scratched when I got it, but it was easy to fill in the scratches and then I clear varnished it.
The guitar body is  440 x 320 x 75 mm  ( 17¼" x 12½" x 3" ).
