egmond typhoon

A piece of dutch historie this egmond typhoon, in a good condition only the whammy bar is missing and the vynil on the headstock is loose.

Bought him for 20 euro at the fleamarket at Eelde, what is an absolute bargain, coming home the bargain became a little bit less good, all the electronics works but the neck is slightly warped, still playable but not that nice.

But for that kind of money you don’ t have to be a cry baby, the body is to my amazement hollow instead of solid, a common practice of egmond.

Makes it a lightweight guitar only a little bit more sensitive for feedback and offcourse it’s a cheap construction method.

The body is covered with black skai and the pickups have an unexpected high output, due to the 7 position rotary switch a very versatily guitar.

It’s a pitty the neck is warped, because he still sounds sweet, now it’s a wallhanger untill i find someone who knows how to unwarp necks .
