In ’75 my friend Paul had a black Sekova Les Paul custom model played through a Gibson SG Systems guitar amp. I played it and the heft and action were spot-on to a true LP. Seems that at the time Sekova knock-offs were the best of the import models. Last week I missed a deal on a Sekova EB-3 bass. That was the droid I was looking for!

My best freind and stationed Korea in the good old days. Mine was 78 to 83. His was 77 to 82 i think. We were playing korean guitars for a few days at a time then buying new ones cuz yes they were that bad. He my friend got hold of one that lasted and had tone. It was a Sekova. Acoustic guitar made in Korea. Well guitars were great and still are the love of both our lives cept we do long distance sharing now as i live on Long Beach Peninsula WA with the lady i met back then and he lives in Arizona with his lady from those days. After years of playing guitar my friend is winding pups and he will wind the best im certain. The pups on this guitar are why im here. Very cool guitar lucky find and good on recognizing it and keeping it.

I have a Sekova Custom 6 string electric Les Paul style. I can’t seem to find anything on these either . If Anybody knows anything about this model Would love to hear from you . I know it’s a mid 60’s model for sure and have been told it is worth quite a bit. Just looking for more information

I have an Autoharp that needs repairing. All parts are present but a plastic part broke. Can you replace it and reattach the chord bars in place?

My first bass was a Sekova Hofner 500/X copy, cherry burst w/ black, bought in 1990 or 1989 maybe. The original pickups failed, so I placed EMG bass humbuckers on it. I’ve
even used it on many home recordings over the years. I still have it, but now it’s
fretless. I liked it’s hollow sound, but had to be careful using it on my brother’s bass amp, which was a mid ’60s Fender Bassman. I still have the original pickups and do plan to rewind them, but as compact ‘buckers.

So I have a les paul copy bass. The “black beauty”. Original owner picked it up in the early 70’s. I’m having trouble finding any info on it but have the serial number. It’s absolutely wonderful sound comes from pickups I’ve never seen anything like before. Serial number is 1057659. Any help to identify mfg date would be appreciated.

I have a Sekova guitar and it is beautiful. And I looked up Sekova guitars on google to see if I can find one that looked like it and I couldn’t fund any that did. The man that gave it to my mom when she was little asked for it back because he realized it was worth a lot of money but she didn’t give it back. So I was wondering of it was rare. Is there a way of knowing or finding out? It is orange and has paint splatters that are hand painted you can feel it. The neck is black with a green tint. Does that mean anything? i don’t know??

hey all i have a sekova acuostic passed down to me from my dad he got it from my grandfather when he was 18 so i estimate mine to be about 45 yrs old as i understand it they were called japan gibsons because the parts were made by gibson and put togather in japan under the name sekova thats all i know as far as a value i cant find anything to confirm a value the pawn shops if pawning the best you can get is about 40.00 so i guess it could be worth atleast a 100.00

There was one mention on the web of a guitar designer named Peter Sekova, but I can’t find it now. I assume he’s the one who lent his name to these instruments. Some of them must have been built by Kawai-Teisco, judging from the distinctive rounded-rectangle fretboard markers. Sekova-branded classical guitars were imported from Brazil, AFAIK.
