Conrad brand guitars were made in Japan for distribution in the USA by David Wexler & Company (Chicago). Catalogs indicate that Conrad instruments were available from at least 1966 until 1974. By 1974 there was a full range of Conrad instruments - all types of guitars (including a Dan Armstrong style clear lucite model) as well as mandolins, ukuleles and banjos.
