Please note that Waterslide is no longer taking orders and instead only provides us guitars that are ready for sale. We are leaving this listing here only as an example of Waterslide builds - it is not actually "available to order".
Waterslide Dual Foil guitars are available with T-style, S-style, or J-style bodies with aged nitrocellulose lacquer finishes that have been lightly relic'd and aged. The bodies are generally lightweight alder or swamp ash.
The pickups are Mojo UK Dual Foil gold foil pickups which take Teisco's classic design from the '60s and turns them into coil-splittable humbuckers. They're very fat and detailed in humbucking mode with more power and 'oomph' than a typical gold foil pickup. Each pickup can be coil split by the white switches on the upper horn which gives you the traditional round and glassy tone that has made vintage gold foil pickups so popular.
J-style/offset guitars are generally equipped with a Descendant Vibrato, a beautiful piece of engineering that works smoothly and maintains tuning stability. The vintage-style bridge is by Staytrem, which provides huge improvements over the original design with better sustain and overall tone.
