Ulrich Teuffel started a top-secret collaboration with Fender Guitars a couple of years ago. Let me simply call it the “under-cover” project… The plan was to release a new affordable custom electric guitar which is a mix of a lifstyle item and an electric guitar. The Fender R&D department stated that – if there is a new Leo Fender – it truly has to be Ulrich Teuffel. What happened to that project?

Who knows. Maybe it got stuck in the “hoe-zone”. I assume it is like this super secret airforce Aurora fighter plane project. Nobody has ever seen it, but everybody believes that it exists. I have held a prototype in my own hands. I know it exists. I am a true believer.
But as well as I know Ulrich, his ideas and projects have all come true eventually. And his success proves that he is on the right track. His Birdfish guitar is considered to be the Porsche of custom electric guitars. Ulrich Teuffel never advertised the Birdfish, it’s limited to 500 guitars but still you can find it in every serious book about guitars. Billy Gibbons of ZZTop used it extensively on their album Mescalero. Enjoy the second part of the TEUFFEL custom guitar video and watch out for more to come!
