Teye's Guitar

The guitar I am creating must be one of unsurpassed beauty and elegance: it will be an inspiration to all the senses.

The guitar I am creating must react to your playing in a way that you will simply feel "inspiration".

A palette of different flavors in a rainbow of tone, behind an intuitive control panel, to enable you to color your phrases without the operation of machinery.

This guitars' desire is, as if it were a thoroughbred Andalusian steed and you the rider, to explore exciting new horizons: a complete unison between the human and the instrument.

The guitar I am creating must speak to the players' heart as much as to the listeners' ears and eyes.

Please decide for yourself if my creation lives up to these goals. The greatest compliment will be the one written on your face.

Sounds Like: The Electric Gypsy by Teye
Mission:
To make a guitar that will have many sonic possibilities without the elaborate controls that usually go with the concept; and each and every sound excellent and useful.

Switching & Control Harness:
With all knobs on 10, and ignoring the in-between positions of the selector switch, the guitar reacts like a Les Paul.
To roll off the highs, of course you roll off the master tone knob. There are many sweet spots on this particular tone knob.
The Mood-knob rolls away the body of the sound. Especially by mixing pickups, you can achieve the sounds of Gretsch, Telecaster, and Strat.
For anybody who has ever played a Les Paul or SG, a Tele, and a Stratocaster, the Electric Gypsy will react totally intuitive, once you get over the initial shock of playing a three-humbucker-Les Paul with a 5-way-switch.
To be able to go in one solo from classic rock, to Santana, to Jimi/SRV, to country twang, to rockabilly, to funk, this is the freedom I always searched for, and I have achieved it with this instrument.
Every single sound is beautiful, useful, strong, cool, and focused, and reacts to the touch of your playing immediately.
Dialing in of any tone is easy, quick, and intuitive, and the neck and action are a delight to play.
Underneath all the stunning cosmetic beauty this is truly a players guitar: a perfect tool to dominate the stage both in looks as in sound.

those new Zemaitis guitars versus the real thing

As a guitarist who LOVES the guitars made by the late Tony Zemaitis, and as a guitar maker who is obviously inspired by them, I'd love to hear your opinion on the quality, and sound, of the new Japane...
