loved that last riff in the first vid, very eeire!

so what exactly is the 3rd button doing, the one that makes it sound all thin?

sounds like button 1 lifts the ground somehow, button 2 sounds like a killswitch.... am i right?

The 3rd knob activates a pick-up micro. On low gain you'll get an eerie low-fi acoustic sound. With some serious gain it feedbacks loudly.

That thing has a ridiculous low end. I really dug the low end that bad boy put down. The noise buttons are kind of neat too.

Wow thats seriously cool. The buttons have some very interesting possibilities. I'm also surprised at how well it sounds for the heavier stuff.

Thanks so much for all the nice feedback on my new axe and the clips I ve done!

After spending more time (the full weekend) with the Tesla I am starting more and more to realize how amazing and unique this instrument is!
I am stunned that this guitar, what I first thought is some kind of avant-garde jazz style guitar, fits so perfect to my brutal style of music. The Low End is incredible, its has sustain for ages, pitch harmonics are unbelievable loud and clear, the neckpickup sounds like a Stratocaster and the Bridge one can go beyond 11…!
Next week I am going to visit Ulrich Teuffel cause I am really close to his workshop over the X-Mas days and I am going to discuss a 6 string Tesla for my brutal needs with the man himself! I will also be able to play a Birdfish, Niwa and maybe a Coco, this will be a hell of a day and I make sure to post a lot of photos as soon as I am back in Hamburg…
Happy Holidays to all of you…
