2001 Superior Custom
2001 Superior Custom
Here's a super cool vintage 2001 Koll Superior in great condition. This very guitar appeared on the cover of our catalog/brochure from that era, and a copy of the catalog is included!
Solid alder body with translucent orange stain, nitrocellulose lacquer which at 21 years old looks amazing! Weight and balance are fantastic, coming in at only 6.14 lbs. The Superior body design features arm and stomach contours and a slightly deeper cutaway on the bass side, for more adventurous fretboard exploration. The maple neck is a slim C at .840" at the 1st fret gently tapering to .9" at the 12th fret. Rosewood fingerboard, 12" radius, 24.625" scale length and a 1 11/16" nut width. Medium frets are #141. Headstock is capped with beautiful Macassar ebony. The tuners have been upgraded to locking Sperzels with cool pearloid buttons. Old tuner holes neatly filled.
It's fitted with TVJONES custom pickups including the ultra rare "Electroflux" bridge pickup which features an asymmetrical coil, wider on the treble side. The idea was to sweeten the treble while maintaining the bass note punch. Think of your favorite tele, but less icepick. Wilkinson trem/bridge. Comes with extra pickup covers, guard and backplate in white, in case you want to change it up. Ships in its original TKL black hardshell case in great condition.
This is a killer, rare custom guitar, it has been personally gone over and setup by Saul Koll and plays beautifully. US buyers only, please contact us with any questions.
