Eric Daw Custom Guitars #238 "MANDY" TL Shell Pink
「Eric Daw Custom Guitars (Eric Daw)」 is a high-end guitar pickup brand carefully crafted one by one by hand in Idaho Falls, America. We were amazed to discover that new products offer the depth and feel that should only be experienced in vintage guitars from the 1950s and pickups created by the legendary craftsman "Abigail Ibarra" who worked at Fender Custom Shop, and as a result, MION has decided to handle Eric Daw products. Without modern flavoring, we have assembled a diverse lineup of pickups so that customers can experience the aroma of old-fashioned America directly from the amplifier.
As Japan's first store to accept orders and officially sell Eric Daw pickups, we will make further efforts to promote and sell Eric Daw products.
From Eric's years of research on the most sought-after vintage guitars in the world and his experience of actually handling them, he played prototype guitars for thousands of hours across hundreds of live performances starting in 2004, creating the "Pin-up" series which recreates vintage guitars.
What our store ordered this time is a Telecaster-style guitar in shell pink color named "MANDY". Completed in November 2024, it weighs 3.0kg.
The "Pin-up" series carefully ages all parts, giving it the look of a vintage guitar that has been played for many years. Each guitar is given a name and features an actual vintage "Pin-up Girl" water-slide decal.
It features a swamp ash body in Telecaster style with a maple neck and 7.25R maple fingerboard. The neck profile is "Soft V", and the pickguard is single-ply white. The pickup features a handmade "Alnico V" set. Controls consist of a simple 3-way selector, volume, and tone. A custom Telecaster with careful attention to details including GOTOH tuners, unbleached bone nut, and light aged relic finish!
Our store mainly orders hand-wound pickups from "Eric Daw" and sells them installed in used guitars, but due to the high sound quality, MION has decided to also handle guitar bodies from Eric Daw going forward. Eric Daw guitars are extremely lightweight and resonate well.
In particular, TL-type guitars do not function well with high-gain distortion pedals or amps, and the guitar screams like a microphone pointed at a speaker. However, this guitar responds remarkably well to tube overdrive and sustains beautifully without feedback. Its resonance and lively characteristics are like a vintage guitar, and the pickup and wiring system apparently amplifies not only the magnetic properties of the strings but also the acoustic properties of the guitar itself.
Please take this opportunity to try Eric Daw's vintage-modern approach as proposed by our store.
