Silvertone 1457 "Super 63" Guitar
This is the very first guitar I ever built, a hot-rodded version of the old Silvertone 1457. This guitar uses every passive wiring trick in the book. Four - count 'em - four lipstick pickups, wired in series. Six-way pickup selector, and two phase switches. The neck is from AllParts, I paid way too much for it. The finish is glittery acrylic lacquer from the auto parts store. The knobs are from Radio Shack - remember them?
The aluminum nut has very deep square string slots to allow for the rather extreme angle to the tuners. Just like the original. Finish is rattle-can automotive acrylic lacquer.
