The Eternal "Galina" T-Type is an effortlessly cool, lightweight, and resonant take on the early '50s Broadcaster, blending classic design with a unique pickup combination for a tone that’s both transparent and dynamic.
Built to showcase our punchy "Broadcaster" single-coil bridge pickup, Galina is a player’s dream—combining the brightness and attack of a great T-Type bridge pickup with the depth and warmth of our Firebird-style mini-humbucker in the neck.
Wrapped in a beautifully aged Sherwood Green metallic nitro finish with a sleek, one-piece maple neck, Galina is built for tone, versatility, and effortless playability.
A Lightweight Build with Classic ‘50s Styling
The body is crafted from ultra-lightweight paulownia, making Galina a joy to play for long sessions while enhancing the resonance and openness of her tone.
We've kept the early Broadcaster DNA, featuring:
- Classic "router hump" and small-radius edge round-overs, for period-correct body styling
- Aged nitro Sherwood Green metallic finish, for vintage character with just the right amount of wear
- A sleek one-piece maple neck, finished in worn, tinted nitro lacquer for a broken-in feel
The comfortable C-profile neck, 7.25” radius, and jumbo 6100 frets ensure smooth bends, effortless playability, and vintage accuracy without compromise.
Firebird Mini-Humbucker Meets Broadcaster Bite
The Galina T-Type is all about tonal versatility, offering a bold, full-range voice with its Firebird-style mini-humbucker in the neck and Broadcaster-style single-coil in the bridge:
- Eternal hand-wound "Firebird" mini-humbucker (neck position)
- Warm, articulate, and richly detailed
- Tighter low end than a standard PAF-style humbucker
- Sweet, clear highs without muddiness
- Eternal hand-wound "Broadcaster" single-coil (bridge position)
- Punchy, dynamic, and full of snap and twang
- Raw, uncompressed attack with a touch of grit
- Perfect for cutting through the mix without harshness
This perfectly matched pickup combination gives Galina a wide tonal palette, from warm, rich leads to aggressive, biting rhythms.
