A beautifully flamed Thinline Archtop with upgraded Seymour Duncan Antiquity picukups and Gotoh locking tuners.
The T486 is a meticulously crafted guitar that combines vintage aesthetics with modern playability. Featuring a maple neck, ebony fingerboard, and deluxe flamed maple laminate body, this instrument offers exceptional tone and versatility. With its stunning design, including pearl inlays and ivoroid binding, and reliable hardware, the T486 is a guitar that will captivate both your eyes and ears.
The Antiquity neck humbucker delivers an articulate, yet mellow tone that results from a perfectly balanced frequency response that combines a soft, sweet treble attack with a warm, full sounding low-end. The custom aged alnico 2 bar magnet creates an airy openness to the top-end that gives chords clarity and articulation, while the vintage output coils really bring out the rich harmonic content. Single notes have a beautiful singing quality with just the right amount of treble emphasis.
The Antiquity bridge humbucker delivers that open, airy tone of the great “P.A.F.” humbuckers that Seth Lover designed in 1955. High notes cut through without being overly bright, and low notes growl with spongy vintage warmth. The bridge is wound a little hotter for better balance and added warmth.
The neck is a comfortable C shape and is ever so slightly thinner than on a Gibson ES-345.
It is in excellent condition throughout with only the faintest signs of use. There is tarnishing to the pickup covers. The frets are in great shape.
Comes in its original hard case with Certificate of Authenticity.
