Used And Vintage Amps

Another instrument from A-Ha guitarist/ principle songwriter, Pal Waaktaar’s personal collection, this is a standout piece.  It's from Waterslide Guitars, a boutique builder in Los Angeles that has made quite the known for itself with it's unique vibe and super high quality.  We've had a few here, and now we have our favorite yet.

This Waterslide Guitars S-style model has “Dual Foil” Pickups (from Mojo Pickups, UK) which feature the ability to split each pickup into a single coil, which still yields those gorgeous Lap-Steel types of tones heard on other Waterslide guitars.   When in full Hum-bucking modes the guitar still retains that shimmering Fender-esque type of tone but with more dynamics, added clarity and harmonics that just leap off the fret-board.

The lightly aged Nitro finish is also something to marvel at, with its very authentic looking finish checking. The small details like the vintage style knobs and switch tip, as well as the lively celluloid guard and matching vibrato switch tip, all add up to one of the coolest looking Waterslide guitars we've seen yet. 

Last but certainly not least the Soft-V profile on this guitar feels nice and full without being an overkill situation on the V shape.  It's super comfortable and easy to play.  The 12" radius and 6150 frets help with the ability to bend anywhere on the neck without fretting out.

This is a great instrument for both the Strat enthusiasts and those who like the look of a Strat, but prefer two pickup guitars. It's also perfect for those that seek famililarity mixed with uniqueness.

Waterlside makes amazing instruments, and this one is a great example.  This guitar is in excellent condition, and has been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop.  A nice hardshell case is included.  We have a feeling that it will go fast!
