The Teiscaster is part of the Flabbergaster Series. (Lots of people build “regular” Teles. Sorry, we don’t do normal: we enradden!)

Teiscaster

The “T-style” guitar is an excellent platform for our unique square pole pickups, which are a nod to the interesting and often astoundingly good Japanese pickups of the 1960s.

To thicken things up a bit, we threw a mini humbucker in the middle, which gives you thick, creamy tones never before heard from a Tele!!

The blended tones are especially useful, so we deployed a 7-way circuit to optimize pickup combinations. Way more versatile than your run-of-the-mill twang machine.
