all the blokes are thinking.......nothings changed there then (or ever will)
if women could find out who invented the mobile..he'd be in for a bloody good time

get stranded in any situation and a mobile is like a life jacket......carry one for emergencies
they can get you out of the shit.....always
moral........dont use mobiles period ....but keep one like you'd have a spare tyre as part
of your car.............buy pay as you go...not rental.....so a 30p call could save your bacon
and ......you' ve got some left for next time

theres loads on youtube...different styles / techniques etc.....just type in ' slide guitar '
i think basically you need a git with a higher than normal action and  'heavier the better'  strings
( you dont have to do any bending )
but its all subjective

looking at that... the bridge is missing off the first photo...the tailpiece is probably
a bigsby type ....with a spring and sits on top....so it needs a simple bridge and a new trem arm
is it possible to post a macro ( close up ) of the tailpiece...and broken trem arm

you can buy the trem springs off ebay if its missing (£4.99)
seehttp://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-60s-TEISCO-Harmony-Guitar-Whammy-Bar-Tailpiece-/390310763605?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item5ae0559c55#ht_737wt_1061 ( copy this to your browser )

it seems now like the top half of the trem arm is missing..unless its to one side

it is definately a kay.............pick your money up james

Remove the guitar's neck if you cannot find the serial number anywhere else. Most vintage Silvertone guitars have the serial number stamped on the neck pocket, which is the piece of the neck that hugs the body of the guitar. Remove the strings and unscrew the screws at the base of the neck. Carefully separate the neck from the body of the guitar. Look for the serial number in the neck pocket.(quote from previous link)
( the switches and knobs look like a silverstone/kay???)

if theres no name or identification....its probably a cheapish generic left handed strat copy ( shape)
can't it be refurbished using the original parts...it unlikely that the pu's etc will be
damaged..prehaps a bit of resoldering / new strings / and setting up will get it up
and running again???...most of these copies ( if it is ) can be set up to play and sound
as good as the more expensive counterparts with a bit of TLC (is the bridge assy intact??)

try also :bottom E ..2nd fret ( 2nd finger )
                          A..open
                          D..open
                          G..2nd fret ( 3rd finger )....play top 4 strings only (E/A/D/G)
...its esp easy to get there from G open chord
or add                B..3rd fret  (pinky)....play top 5 strings only (E/A/D/G/B)

if you play the first version and play all the strings ( with B/E open as well)you
get the second chord in the old chestnut ' horse with no name '...Em///D9??///........or pretty close

( with an up to date HD " look at me i'm still alve video ) within the next few days that will be proof enough

if he does then a few other different people will be getting the bullet no doubt about that
