1965 Egmond 3V Typhoon. This was Egmond’s top of the line electric solid body guitar back in 1965. It is a very scarce guitar.
A super cool looking, made in Holland, with 3 pickups, deep green vinyl covering, pearloid pick-guard and matching headstock. Straight meaty neck with plenty of life left in frets.
The pearloid headstock veneer must have been pulling away many years ago and someone neatly screwed and countersunk small screws around the edge (I guess they did not know how to re-glue it. You can replace the veneer if you like, there is an online company that sells it, but this was done during the working life of the guitar and is part of the guitar’s charm.
Guitar plays and sounds sweet.
Overall good condition with some nicks and nocks and vinyl shrinkage around edges (like they all do).
I do not know what all the positions on the multi selector switch are supposed to do, but some of them don’t seem to change the tone at all, so she will need some attention to get her back to original specs if you wish to do so.
Some of the most famous rock n roll musicians played early Egmonds!
Price is firm.
Thanks for looking.
