Teisco TG-64 Metallic Brown
DESCRIPTION
Up for sale is a cool and quite rare 1960s Teisco TG-64 in its original Metallic Brown finish. This is the first variation of the TG-64 model with the offset body design, “monkey grip” body handle and first generation style pickups. The TG-64 was introduced in 1964 and was the most expensive guitar in the Teisco catalogue, being beaten in price only by the TB-64, the bass version of this guitar. The TG-64 was 22,000 yen – over twice the price of the BS-101 at the time, and with good reason. This is a particularly early example of the Monkey Grip TG-64 having the rare, quite short lived Grey Bobbin pickups. These were introduced in ’64 and appeared on a very few TG, TB and WG models before being replaced with the square polepiece pickups. The Grey Bobbin pickups have a tone unique to these models, and Teisco. They are medium output and have great volume and a real clarity to them that probably is most reminiscent of a P-90. Overall this one is in good condition and features a repaired crack located at the monkey grip. This repair is solid and could be easily missed if you are not looking for it. Pro setup in house and comes complete with a gig bag.
