Timeless retro lines.
The timeless silhouette that inspired the design of the TL401 is no longer in evidence: the characteristic single notch that guarantees excellent access to the last compartments, combined with two single-coil pickups, represent an unmistakable visual signature. This classic configuration has been adopted by Italian manufacturer Eko to make the TL401 an attractive, ergonomic and, above all, versatile guitar for beginner players.
Lightweight, sturdy lutherie.
Despite its most affordable price, the TL401's lutherie has received the utmost attention to offer guitarists new to the instrument an attractive and very well finished guitar. The body is made from paulownia, a light, robust and resonant wood that provides comfort and beautiful vibrations. The sturdy, comfortable 4-point maple screw neck is topped by a fingerboard also in varnished maple, bringing even more clarity to your notes and a 50s look.
A versatile configuration.
On the electronics side, the TL401 is equipped with 2 single-coil pickups with a well-known layout, much appreciated for their versatility and efficiency. Very much at home on bright clean tones and light saturation, they can also be very biting when combined with powerful distortion. The 3-position selector widens the palette of tones offered by the instrument, with three associated positions, providing clean, precise tones. This electronics configuration delivers the bright, twangy tones typical of this singlecut model, renowned in blues, country or rock music.
Affordable, lightweight, versatile and highly aesthetic with its timeless retro silhouette, the TL401 is the ideal instrument for a fun start on the electric guitar, without breaking the bank.
