This SS2L is a raw piece of Japanese guitar history from the early 60s, far from polished and pretty for the sake of it. The body is compact, the neck has that old-school slab feel, and the sunburst has mellowed with age into something honest and a bit grimy in the best way. Teisco’s have character all their own, channelling jangly grit and weird little quirks that make playability both a blessing and a curse. Pair of goldfoils in this thing sound awesome! (worth the price of entry alone). 

Made in Japan.
