The "halves" could travel in separate cases. The modular body construction allowed various permutations of twelve, six and four string. There were even the missing body sections to complete individual guitars, if required. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkfingers Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 The newly relaunched Shergold instruments revive the body outlines of old but use them to host, largely, twenty first century hardware and features. Part of the unique charm of the old Hayman and Shergold instruments was their idiosyncratic approach to hardware design. The bass guitar bridge, for example, had wedge-shaped adjustable saddles, resting on a ramped surface. Action height adjustment was at the ends of the "ramp". I'm surprised that Rickenbacker never sued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
