Founded by Charles Eilenberg in 1947, Alamo was a manufacturer of guitars and amplifiers based in San Antonio, TX. They are definitely a hidden gem in the world of vintage guitars. Introduced in 1965, the Fiesta was a series of hollow-core electric guitars offered in a single, dual, and triple pickup configurations. The line was short lived; they were removed from the catalog in 1967. The design is reminiscent of Danelectros of the era with its simple hollow-core, bolt on construction, and wooden saddle. The pickups were manufactured in house and produce a tone similar to Gretsch Dynasonics, they are fairly high output with a dark, airy quality. The "bridge" position is not as piercing as on most other guitars because it is located further away from the bridge. The hollow core construction combined with the pickup gives an acoustic quality to the sound. The finish color was referred to as "Jaguar Tan", which is most similar to Fender's "Shell Pink" option.

Overall this is a beautiful time capsule example of a very rare and under appreciated guitar! It is in near mint condition and comes with the original hardshell case which is also in excellent shape.
