The Dearmond tenor pickup functions just like its 6-string version, with a clear, open voice that captures the natural acoustic tone of the instrument very well. It's mounted to an aftermarket pickguard and wired internally to an endpin jack for ease of use.

The original Kluson no line tuners function great, despite the button shrinkage that commonly occurs with them. They're working fine for now, so we've elected to leave them be. Its future owner may want to plan for button replacement at some point, however.

With the exception of some pick scratches on the top and light buckle rash on the back, you'd be hard pressed to find a cleaner early 50s TG-50. It includes an original and quite clean hardshell case- no wonder it's stayed so clean!
