Like the sound of that guitar, Doug. Maybe I can find a good one when I visit Kyoto next spring.

Doug
I think you could play an orange crate with strings and make it sound good !
It really is the player , not the instrument that makes the music.
Enjoyed the tune

Sounds great Doug!
I have a 6 string with what looks like the same style of pickups:
The thing is a blast to play
Next time- please make the video longer!  |

Gotta love the gold foils!!!!
If you can find the DeArmond with the row of screws down one side- those are the Cooder approved foils that people pay big bucks for!
As long as you keep the gain/volume down to decent levels, these pickups are great!
I love the sound of the foil style pickups- it reminds me of my Tiescos I played/hated as a kid!
The action on them always sucked, but I always like the sound!

Yeah, I remember Teisco as a kid also. Probably 1965/66. They used to sell the standard electrics in department stores, along with St. George and other brands I can't remember. Guitars with four pickups and lots of rocker switches. Horrible action and sound. I suppose there are some gems among the dogs but for us rock and roll wannabes that stuff was third rate. |

Great playing Doug.
The video of Mike Dugan playing sound's good as all the video on http://drowninginguitars.com./ of guitars from around the world photo's and demo's of most with vintage amps and pedals. If you like the wild looking 60's guitars there's lots there. |

The 'Coodercaster' 'foils are Teiscos and have the pole pieces on the outside (as opposed to the pictured ones). They are indeed expensive, but Jason Lollar is making re-pops.
