Argus Les Paul Custom Model

Argus is a brand name of Kyowa Shokai is distributing.
This brand is still available but only for replacement guitar parts now.
Kyowa shokai (it is a whole seller here) distributed many guitar brands such as
Gallan, Fresher and Camel. Argus brand is top model of these brands.

I have heard that this brand was produced by Mr. Shiino (who is founder of Vestax and ESP, produced H.S. Anderson ).
I could imagine. Argus is very good quality and specification even compare with Gibson original.

I've been looking for the Argus guitar for a long time.
This is first one but very regretfully not original PUs are on.
Well, I would put Gibson Classic 57 PUs on soon.

Anyway, it is very good tone guitar. I guess this guitar was made by Terada, in case of Mr. Shiino involved.
I have several guitars which Mr. Shiino produced. But most of his high quality guitar were made by Terada.

A few my clients knew the "Argus","H.S. Anderson" and "Vesta Graham" guitars.
They are all asking me to look for specific model.

I would say this is real JV guitar !!!
