Here we have a truly exceptional Supro from Valco’s Chicago factory<\/strong>: the 1959 Rhythm Master \u201cVal Trol.\u201d
\nVisually, it’s clearly a product of its time, but that’s where things get really interesting from a technical standpoint.
\nIn addition to the two classic single-coil pickups<\/strong>, there’s also an extra piezo-style pickup in the bridge<\/strong>. The 3-way switch allows you to select the neck pickup, bridge pickup, and piezo separately\u2014and there are volume and tone adjustment screws for each pickup. For a guitar from 1959, it’s surprisingly versatile and definitely has a sound all its own.
\nThe maple body is paired with a maple neck featuring a Rio rosewood fingerboard<\/strong>, block inlays, and a pleasantly substantial Soft-V profile.
\nThe original gold Kluson Tulip single-line tuners<\/strong> operate smoothly and hold their tuning reliably.
\nAnd, of course, this is especially interesting for vintage fans: The Rio rosewood fretboard comes with a CITES certificate<\/strong>.
\nWeighing 3,568 grams, the Val Trol is substantial but still comfortable to play. A truly rare and exceptionally distinctive piece of American guitar history.
\nThere’s a great video of this exact guitar by Vintage Guitar Oldenburg<\/strong><\/em><\/a> presented by Tobias Hoffmann.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
