Teisco E-100 / Melody JB4 in Nashville for $100

This seller is offering a Melody JB4 which is a relabeled Teisco E-100.  These are some of the coolest Teisco's because they are super simple and have great pickups with their own unique sound.  This particular version has the desirable round neck plate meaning that it is basically a set neck guitar with a little plate there to provide extra support.  In the 1960's Japanese guitar makers didn't think anyone would trust a glued in neck so they added the plates to give extra support.  

These are great little slide guitars.  Solid and small bodied.  The tone is not bright like an H44 - it is dark and thick and bassy which sounds surprisingly good for slide.  The necks are also fully bound which is nice.
