We upgraded Teisco WG - 4L made in the mid - 1960 's with a custom guitar studio in Tokyo Suginami Ward, Humpback Engineering, custom upgraded.It is the latest work of the reborn series known as the plan which can make Japan Vintage's famous instrument the same as high-end guitar playability and sound quality and revive it.This instrument WG - 4L is the late - stage superlative model of the WG series. WG - 2 L, WG - 3 L, WG - 4 L were produced depending on the number of PUs. The head shape is the Tesco original shape of the late stage arrangement of 4 to 2.Pickups are the most popular in Teisco's history, four types of square-pole pieces that are said to be of high quality, four are installed.Specially it is highly likely to be made in 1965. Speaking of 1965, Teisco's guitar is the general trading company, followed by Marubeni, when the export to America's WMI (Weiss, Musical, and Instruments) company began, and the number of production is the largest.The sound of a single coil at this time is truly brilliant, there is a thickness that can not be seen elsewhere, and it has a cheerful sound. Considering only the tone, there should be many professional musicians who wish to use live.However, in the original state of playability, it is so-called Bizarre guitar, and there is no desire for pitch accuracy.It was revived as a guitar by modern players by Mr. Toda of Humpback Engineering.As Reborn's contents, fix the neck resealing and binding reapplication, and slightly removed neck reshape and neck painted parts with oil.Fret exchange was done with Jescar 43080 which is a stainless fret, severia which seemed to be able to lower the string height of 6th string 12F to about 1 mm after changing nut material to task was carried out.Regarding the internal wiring, we only keep on exchanging cooking, pots and jacks to make use of the original sound.Once started playing, I was reborn as a guitar with charm that I can not release.The control is original, the switch on the left side of the body is on / off for each PU. Below that solo / rhythm change switch.There are two knobs of volume and tone control. Since the arm was out of stock before setting, the arm is set as a premise not to use.Lasting EGC - 120 with semi - hard case.
