«  Could do better ... »

Published on 10/03/13 at 08:25
Made in Indonesia. Telecaster bridge-type string through-six bridges. 22 frets. 2 single coil Samick. Volume 1. 1 tone. 1 three selector positions telecaster kind.
Very flat handle. Friendly for speed and solos.
Very good ergonomics, very comfortable to play standing or sitting guitar.
Made in Korea or Indonesia.
Six bridges telecaster style bridge (hard-tail)

UTILIZATION

The handle is nice, satin finish on the back rosewood, very wide, the space between the rope is important.
Micro bridge: its slamming and twang. Neck Pickup: slight lack of fishing.
Note on the bridge: this is not a "real" telecaster bridge. First, its size is reduced. Some overlap screw heads screws from the bridge on the body, it's a shame.
Access to treble without.

SOUNDS

Yes it is suitable for funk that's what I wanted to base. A Tele to funk.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not like the hardware "cheap" the pickguard is just a piece of plastic, the bridge is not at all a success. The tuners are good.
Value for money: not bad provided you change the bridge, which is not easy because you have to re-drill deeper to fit the dimensions of a standard Tele bridge.
