question about guyatone D8

I just purchased a double neck Guyatone from Killer Vintage and it appears to be brand new. I am curious if Guyatone is still making these or not and would like an experts opinion of them. I can't find any dings or scratches on it and the case is in new condition. It has beautifull tone and I am very satisfied with it, at least I am right now.
Thanks. Henry

Henry,
I bought one of those brand new in the 1970s, I loved it then and dearly wish I had it now, consider yourself a lucky man.

James, Thanks for the reply. I've had a chance to realy look it over this afternoon and did find 2 small scratches on the back fret board. Now I've got to tune it and learn to play. I do have a West Coast Hawaiian lap as well that Ive had a little over a month. I didn't know steel could be so addictive.
Regards, Henry

Henry, this is an earlier SGF thread on just this subject that I found well-illustrated and very informative. Great to think you can still find as-new guitars such as this, good score!
