Published on 10/29/11 at 15:04One thing I love about the Fender telecaster's it's brilliant clear tone when you're running a lot of effects and a lot of game. This guitar really brings out the clarity and note separation to which many other guitars are not able to pull off. It has nice clean spanky tone where you can hear each note individually. It has a great feeling a great response and the balance is pretty good as well.

SOUNDS
I really like the tone of these guitars because it has a brilliance and fun playability to it. The necks on these guitars are a little thinner than the Fender Stratocasters and definitely a lot better than a Gibson guitar that I've ever played. It's not a bulky neck but something more along the lines of the Ibanez neck but not too thin.
This guitar sounds great in pretty much any application that you put in. Whether you're running a fender clean amplifier with a load of floor pedals or you have just a few pedals and a medium or high gain amplifier such as a Mesa boogie or Marshall amplifier this guitar will sound great in any setting. For those instruments there really provides the user or the guitar player to really put in their own style and feeling without masking anything. The pick up some these guitars are very good so I suggest swapping those out for something more boutique or just a simple Seymour Duncan single quote pickup.
OVERALL OPINION
These guitars to be found online or pretty much in any guitar retailer around the world. But not very expensive for an American built guitar and right add around $1400 you can have this guitar to bring home with you. I highly recommend this guitar pretty much any guitarists out there because he adds a unique tone to their guitar collection or even your main instrument for digging or recording.
