Overall Opinion
I bought this guitar at a time in my life when I needed another guitar like I needed a bullet in my head haha, but this guitar looked and sounded too good to walk away from.
What is is? The Telecaster Custom by Squier.
I was at my local music shop. Recently Fender has started re-releasing many of their classic guitars, but 3 or 4 years ago it was just your standard Strat or Tele. I remember seeing pictures of Keith Richards playing a black double humbucker Tele with a maple neck. Between that imagine and the fact that it could to a bright and chunky sound had me walking this guitar up to the register. It was $259.
It has 4 knobs and a 3-way switch. The knobs are a volume and tone for each of the humbuckers. Mid into my Tom Morello phase, I leaned you could turn down the volume of the neck or the bridge pickup and toggle the switch back and forth for a funky tremelo tone.
The guitar has a subtle metallic flake in the pickguard. Hey, it looks cool.
None. After a pro setup I had this thing playing and sounding great. If I were to do any upgrades, I get new saddles, bridge pickup and tuners, but no complaints.
The body is Agathis, the neck is Maple. The fretboard is also maple. I had one rough fret edge filed down, but can\'t complain, it\'s a $250 guitar!
The neck is smooth and is similar to a standard Telecaster neck.
A guitar that can twang and crunch in one package. The dual tone knobs really allow you to dial in versatility.
