Musicvox guitars are pretty wierd. But, you never know what will come of a sketch on a napkin and an enthusiastic owner – Matthew Eichen – who was responsible for Musicvox guitars. These were part of a small Korean production run in the mid/late 1990′s. You’ve probably never seen one in your local shop, as the distribution of the brand did not gain any traction, but you may have seen one when New Line Cinema put the guitars in the hands of musicians playing parts in the Mike Myers/Austin Powers film Goldmember in 2002.

New Vintage Guitar Arrivals: 1967 TOKAI Hummingbird Electric Guitar
Late 1960′s and early 1970′s Tokai guitars are very well crafted instruments.

However, before that, they were making some crazy guitars, and perhaps the Hummingbird was one of the craziest.
