Teisco SS-4L GOLD FOIL PICKUP Used Electric Guitar
The greatest attraction of this instrument is its luxurious four-piece Teisco Gold Foil pickup, a global favorite in the vintage bizarre market. The pickups can be freely combined using the ON/OFF switch. It also features a Solo Rhythm switch, offering two different sounds. It also features a master volume and tone control. This model does not have a truss rod, suggesting it is an early 1960s model. Condition: This particular instrument has been painted over, likely by a former owner. The paint is thin and has peeled in some areas. The matte finish leaves a smooth, undamaged surface. There is some burn damage from the stand at the base of the headstock, which is slightly sticky. There are sticker marks on the back of the body. Each metal part shows signs of age and use. Condition: The pickups and switches are in working order. The neck is slightly bowed, and some frets have been worn down, so there is some interference when playing acoustically with strong picking. However, the interference is not so strong that it chokes the sound. I also noticed no interference when playing with an amplifier, and the tremolo arm is working properly. The tuning machines have been replaced. Because this model has a thick headstock, the string holes in the tuning machines' posts are slightly hidden, so you'll need to shorten the length of the strings when winding them. Depending on the pickup combination, a thick lead sound can be achieved with a high-gain setting. The high-mid range is emphasized, creating a pleasant sound. The nut width is approximately 43mm, and the neck grip is as thick as a 1958 Les Paul, providing a solid resonance. This instrument is currently on consignment, but we are happy to assist with refrets, nut fabrication, fingerboard surface repairs, refinishing, and other services.
