Kauffmann 56 Telecaster - HS Summit Special

Kauffmann 56 Tele, Ice Blue Metallic, HS Summit Special, bought 2 months ago brand new from Tfoa. As new condition.

Best telecaster I've ever played and by far the best I've owned. I've had other similar tele builds - Nash, Haar, Fender AVRI series and custom shop - but this really is comparatively special. Neck is a dream to play. Tones are from the gods. Wonderful relic job.

Several summit special guitars were built by Kauffmann for the Mannheim guitar summit this year to show off what they are capable of as builders and this thing really does exactly that.

This T features their light weight solid paulownia body, maple neck and fingerboard, 9.5" radius and Kauffmann XL slightly overwound pickup in the bridge position. A low output Lollar Imperial in the neck. Nice gigbag.

Spec sheet on the photos and other docs.

Very lightweight with the Paulownia body but unbelievably resonant at 2.6kg.

Only selling to keep the peace at home. This was 1900 new only weeks ago and was a bargain at that.
