Valhalla '56 T Blonde Road Worn
​
'Valhalla Telecaster is a very unique sounding guitar. Unlike a standard tele it can fit in many different music genres without having that annoying 'squeak' sound from the bridge pickup. The tone on the two single Alnico 5 pickups is very solid, hard, responsive and the tone control is actually doing it’s job from jazzy neck low-mid chord voicings, 2nd position country/funky glassy sound up to a variety of bridge drive-ready colors. The signal might be a bit louder but that is a personal preference. The neck itself fits very gently in hand it’s not too thick and you can easily grab the low E with thumb and my hands aren’t that big. Keys and bridge are very solid, guitar stays in tune, nothing more, nothing less. Last but not least… it looks extraordinary. 'rusty' like bridge, worn out body and classic pickups make that guitar catch an eye. Feels great, sounds phenomenally, worth every minute spent on playing it.'
