It's stamped 1968, made in Italy and it also has a signature. (I think it might be handwritten)
It plays and it looks awesome. Has some cracks but they're only on the clear coat. The bolt on neck feels nice. There's also a height adjustable bridge. I guess these were fairly common back in the day in Europe.
Double bound body. The tuners are really cool. Never seen that type before.
Anyway I really like mine.... One of the nicest acoustics I've ever had. I might make this the one acoustic I keep for life.

It arrived & it's a beauty. It sounds absolutely gorgeous!!
Firstly, it's not a Ranger but an earlier J56. OK, it's built exactly the same as a Ranger but this puts it in the '65 - '68 bracket.
There's a serial number but I'm struggling to find any online resource to help date it more accurately. Not even Mr Brandoni knows.
The body is in fantastic condition. No hideous laquer cracks like a lot of these guitars were prone to having. Just a couple of honest dings.
Eko Ranger 12 String Guitar
The neck is straight as an arrow, lovely inlays & pretty good repro tuners (that will be changed to original ones soon).
The pickguard is missing but there's no damage from it being removed, just a paler tide mark where the guard used to be.
Again, I can get a NOS period correct (b/w/b) guard for it. They only cost £8 from Brandoni.
I think I did well for £100 + £8 postage.
