Description from Shergold Guitars:
“What began as an experiment quickly became a favourite here at Shergold, so we felt it was only right to bring this guitar to life as a special limited-edition production model… and so the Shergold Telstar SE Special Edition was born!
During the development of the Telstar, we explored a range of pickup configurations and layouts. Among the many prototypes, one stood out. By repositioning the bridge pickup into a more central location, we uncovered a distinctive voice with greater harmonic richness, enhanced midrange character and a remarkably expressive response. Retaining clarity and articulation while introducing additional depth, the Telstar SE occupies its own sonic territory. Expect rich chords, more dimensional clean tones and driven sounds with a unique, vocal-like quality.
The Telstar SE pairs a maple neck with a laurel fingerboard and features a six-in-line colour-matched headstock. Finished in stunning Metallic Orange with a high-gloss finish.”
