UTILIZATION

I wanted to offer me a Gibson SG Special but by trying it is the drama handle suits me absolutely not. So I am back on a Fender with sleeves my leave good memories. Trying is even better than a standard Tele for my taste, the handle seems a little thinner and flatter is the key which is perfect for my small hands. action set has a hurry by the seller before my eyes is very correct. A real highway. Ergonomics level access to the treble is much better than a standard Tele but is more difficult than on a SG (bend on the G string at fret 19 requires a little practice). it's a featherweight for Tele after 3 hours of concert I have quite a shoulder. I play with a long strap and I is not no problem to handle plunging. sitting for the game can be a chamfer to the forearm would have been a plus. Finally on the use it is very simple only 2 tone knob (push / pull) and volume three position selector.

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock 70-80 years it is top for that!
Vacuum already sounds serious. It vibrates a lot and it asks to be connected.
All-tube amp while at noon and a fat overdrive, micro acute and knobs are scraped thoroughly and there it is we begin to Billy Gibbons. the pickups are fantastic.
with my all-tube amp at home (Bugera 5W) it sounds right away without struggling with the settings. On stage I play with a line6 pod hd connect directly to the mixer and it sounds pretty (unlike with my old guitars). it's very easy to get the type ZZ TOP with a big overdrive or AC / DC guy with a marshall who crunch. Once the micro splitter adpanne well for the police, for example, but it will never be the top to funk versatility has limits. I like simplicity and I'm delighted not need to play with the knob it sounds like I love everything thoroughly.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 3 me and I love it. It there's any problem finishing the binding on my own body drooling a bit at the attachment of the strap and a little problem I have 2 frets with defects, tiny entaillse (when you bend has the 3rd or 12th cargo rope hangs a little) has the force to make bend around the cargo 12 is back to normal but by regarding the freight 3 we will have to see a luthier. Despite this violin looks superb quality. the seller has set me in a hurry for me 15min changed the strings to a 10-52, a big blow for the handle key etc ... I use three hours later for a concert and there is nothing to move during a concert or even later. The tuning holds very well.
The guitar is superb throughout with this red polish that leaves appear below table
The value for money is ok not great for my taste, 700 euros the tip anyway there are better finished guitars that certainly sounds can be worse. I will bring it to a luthier to make me a very fine tuning I'm sure we can further improve the game.
In short I recommend this guitar to everyone who wants to play ZZ TOP without Gibson

Origin: Korea
Pickups: 2 Seymour Duncan
Channel: "C"

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, access to treble is a little less but it is generally satisfactory
The body was cut in the back, so that the guitar will hold well on itself; in weight, it is decent (compared to a conventional TV, it is more comfortable to the grip)
Its side, the two Seymour gives a good distortion and clean sound is not bad. In fact, it sounds a little more acute than a Gibson, which gives a more contemporary style.

SOUNDS

To play the blues-rock that is really extra scratch. It is taken quickly to Keith Richards of the microphone with a little serious saturates.
Basically, every song the Stones, Led Zeppelin, blues and improvisation go great.
I play with a Marshall MG 100 DFX, and sometimes a distortion of + Dunlop: perfect result.
The bluesy sounds obtained very easily if you do not put the key in the bottom.
Finally, all configurations are excellent!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years now, and I am very pleased, in fact, I wanted a telecaster with his Gibson and I found it!
Mahogany body with flamed maple the table makes it great. The thing I dislike a bit is that we see too much separation between the different pieces of wood (and it's a little "DIY")
Level quality / price ratio, there's nothing to say.
I find it a very versatile guitar, and did not much character. However, I do not think I made a blunder by buying the contrary, it allows me to get some all I want in sound and is auusi comfortable home in groups, in rhythm than in solo

Made in Korea
22 Frtes
No vibrato
Two knobs: one volume, one for the Tone; possibility to switch from single to double coil. 3 pickups selector positions.
Two Seymour Duncan humbucker (a strong point of the guitar, these pickups sound really good)

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs enjoyable to play, although it is quite difficult to accder acute, but its still a matter of habit. It is an amazement to lgre Telecaster (I test a telecaster classic purchase, and that it had seemed much less serious)
It is relatively easy to get a good sound, but always the same, it is a matter of habit.
I put 9 because it is not always easy to play in the treble.

SOUNDS

I must say I t bluff by the versatility of this fender, which can compete with the guitars of the same brand amricaines. I play both jazz, rock, but also hard and mtal, and this guitar is suitable for all types of music
I use a Marshall 100DFX, and I use BOSS pedals for distortion, the Wah Wah ...
J'obtient very easy crystal clear sound in single coil in neck position, and a trs big sound with a good distortion in humbucking.
I put 10 without hsiter.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been about 6 months since I played on this guitar, and I am fully satisfied. When buying, I test a lot of guitar (including Les Paul, SG, Start ...) and I finally decided that the TRS for its looks "vintage" and for that excellent 'it gives. I would do without this choice hsiter.
Excellent quality price.

Fender Corenne "Special Edition Series".
Table Carved Saddle TIGR.
Ergonomic body and set neck mahogany.
Rosewood fingerboard with very beautiful 22 Jumbo frets trs well finished.
Mcaniques oil bath prcises stable, adjustable string through fixed bridge.
Humbucking pickups Fender Black Canyon in the neck position and Atomic II bridge. (Not Duncan as the Telecaster Blackout in the same series - try!)
Volume 500KA, 500KA Tone a push / pull (single / double coil) and capacitor 0.22f.
Slecteur 3 position: neck pickup, neck-bridge, bridge. (More split winding)
Amber honeyed finish and superb fittings "smoke chrome" beautiful.

UTILIZATION

This skyscraper is the most enjoyable run there may be. Lgrement thinner than the US Tele, with a heel ergonomic pany.
The body is also thinner than 5mm to sculpt fawn fawn derrire Les Paul and Stratocaster, Telecaster fawn or simply GT, making the guitar trslgre and comfortable. Everything is well screwed on this wonder, the stack o hair properly.
The action is low trs, frets smooth, the bridge is of a size appropriate and enjoyable for a contact, the knobs are just at hand ...
J'enlve slecteur point for giving an impression of fragility, although no signal for 2 years, and the Tone knob for that lack of Resistors in its handling may be surprising.
But again it is done for.

SOUNDS

So l!! bleuf frankly given the price. It trsrsonant, thank you for mahogany and strings traversing. Full, round, brilliant but balance. It feels dj before connecting, and APRS ...
Exceptionally, this sound and well gnreux Defines, Bleusy well rock! full of harmonics and medium. RULES Although it is extra, the microphones do not lose a beat, a sound in all directions and behaves well even with many dgueulasses Satus of hell. But it is with a good overdrive that gives the best of the Fender humbucker. It's hot, happiness.
In split is "so nice", a nice chorus and it's full of feelings and expressions. The Tone fit for purpose with finesse.
Submitted least a Standard Tele, but just as effective with the grain of double and more. 10/10 for sure.

OVERALL OPINION

This Tele was jubilant. For those who enjoy a pleasant change, it will fill all the DSIR in her dress "Vintage" so sensual.
I regret that Fender does offer more in the transparent black finish with hints of violet lgrement. I found it more personality. snif
Well what can I say? Telecaster Gibsonian a colored, extremely talented and versatile, the report qualitprix impressive ... a beautiful instrument.

Fixed bridge-
Split-humbuckers in the single coils with Push / Pull
-1 Tone (push / pull) e volume
3-position selector
Version with 2-micro double seymour duncan, but some came out with Di Marzio

UTILIZATION

The neck is very thin, extremely pleasant, the varnish glides well, it was no problem walking on the handle, even high in the treble.
It is a very light guitar, the body is thinner than the classic tele, it makes it even more beautiful I find it fits perfectly well the body sitting there in nothing wrong with playing for hours!
In short it is a light guitar, clever, very fun to play!

SOUNDS

I use it with a Valvestate 100 watt lamp.
The clear sound with the microphone is very serious round, very hot, I find it really beautiful.
The microphone provides acute sonoritées very nice too, it just snaps, ideal for a little funk for example.
In distortion it sounds great too, it's true that there is something Valvestate also can make it sound very very clean and then very heavy distortion and fat.
It can be used for a panel of his impressive mm if I think the clean sound is really the most impressive settings with the tone gives sounds really hot as I disai is really the sound I like .

OVERALL OPINION

In addition to being a scratch with beautiful tiger maple, and glued the handle curved thin and round, well-equipped this guitar sounds great for a wide type of sound.
I use it for 3 years at the time I bought 700euros, and I'm really convinced that quality / price ratio it defies competition (not US Korean). In my opinion more enjoyable than a traditional tele, and equipped with seymour, it's really a bomb I will never regret this purchase. In any case if you have the opportunity to see, try, you will be surprised like me its grip and the roundness of its sounds clear.

Fender telecaster, Korean manufacturing

Chrome hardware, a mechanical clutch, fixed rope bridge crossing
Bridge pickup: Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates Plus
Neck pickup: Seymour Duncan SH1 '59 (reverse polarity)

Note still quite a jack "cheap": it unscrews easily.

-1 For jack

UTILIZATION

Use ... One of the (many) strengths of the beast ...
The handle, how to qualify? Perfect, given the use I made: very fine, while keeping a good grip, excellent for big solos ... Access to acute impeccable (fender forces, even better than the tele / strat standard, the lack of a heel). The string action is low, it does not frieze.
Ergonomics, when it has, is magic: it is far from the beloved Les Paul smashes us back when you're standing and we massacre the ribs and the thigh when you sit: in fact, the body was slightly refined, and a chamfer was created (as a strata), allowing us to sit for hours playing. So we end up with a guitar relatively light and very comfortable.
The sound comes out easily: disconnected, its already sounds (set neck) and trendy ... I talk about it right after.

SOUNDS

So the sound ... Formidable
This guitar combines two types of effect sound different:
- The sound fat and hot humbuckers: its a fairly accurate with lots of potato, ideal for a good rock / hard rock, I use the bridge pickup with a good overdrive (boss sd1) for sounds "ACDCiennes"
- The clear, crystal microphones Splitter: I love that sound. In bridge pickup, we go a little tv in the spirit: a well slam, great for funk, and punchy rhythms well, also excels in punk distortion. Middle position, there is a little sound of a Start position micro + micro severe environment: both a hot and clear, ideal for small blues improvisation. And neck position, the sound is round, quite dynamic while being loaded low: perfect for solo rock / pop rock.
I put 10 without hesitation, for the versatility of this guitar, which still keeps a great personality.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for almost 2 years. I particularly like the look (a finish that is reminiscent of a Les Paul, while the shape of the legendary Telecaster), its handle, the sound it delivers ...
I tried other guitars in the same price range before buying it: it buries the largely Mexican and one highway, and even competes with US standard, although they are largely above its prices (excellent value for money, it goes without saying)
With experience, this choice I would do without hesitation.

It's a Fender Made in Core, trs round dish, jumbo frets 22.
2 Seymour Duncan humbuckers (SHPGP-1B Pearly Gate) and SH1-1NRP59.
3 positions but microphones and split.
1 volume knob and one Tone.
Just then the classic.

The set is very well RALIS no major problem. the handle is trs al enjoyable for the treble. The sustain is also widely amlior thanks a. I would add that the body is mahogany Asian trslger trs.

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs good with the shade due to the jumbo frets Drout at beginners and impractical for the slides.

Otherwise good use and trs. A small problem at the same balance when the guitar leaning a little cot head. edit: the SETTING THE strap a little plastic bottom allows rgler this concern.

The rglages work perfectly. The entire course of the Tone knob is usable which is interesting for trs "jazz" or "Blues".

SOUNDS

This is the big highlight of the BTE.

The SD sends the wholesale saturation and the possibility to split the pickups is a plain apprciable + super. Versatility for the big scratches.

Out the treble, the harmonics as well. It enlve fingers of the handle has cut the sustain (even in saturated fat), it's really prcis net and without burrs.

I test with my bandit 112, MGFX100, an all-tube Fender (unfortunately not me ...) and a Spider III 75 it sounds with the fire of God. The SD pickups are really good.

I stress once again the versatility of the guitar and its exceptional sound reproduction. Clear sounds slammin or round depending on the tonal and micro utiliss. As against this sounds a bit "vintage", for a normal tv you will tell me.

My uses are many and varied but I'll try dcrire just that.
Double coil, I use mainly in clean neck pickup for a sound trs "vintage", round and with a nasal sympatoche cot, to Jazz. If you want bass and treble round slamming fender sauce, a split shot and it switches with two microphones (center position) and l. .. Happiness! One of my clean sounds prfr perfectly balanced and really fun. The right hand can range attacks to play a bass line intersects coup d'exploded on the upper strings, really excellent.
The micro acute non split (in my usage) is confined to heavy saturation and aggressive. In this register it is doing particularly thanks the precision he displayed formidable and sustain-General for the guitar. but it lacks a bit of potato for rhythmic strings and clumps trash
If we want to approach sounds more crunchy and less saturated "fit in" can be recreational splitter and enter the world of micro saturated simple. the grain is typical.

Edit:
APRS mounting a Di Marzio Tone Zone prs of the bridge, the lack P'ti potato mtal to make with this guitar is forgotten! A "customization" healthy in every way that greatly amliore super dj proper performance of the guitar. Note that the microphone is also effective trs sounds clear even if many do not.

OVERALL OPINION

I like the versatility, the look, split pickups, and handle the lgeret
I put a little less for the jumbo frets. It really points a Student (and try) before purchasing the guitar.
The report price is trs good quality.

Tele Corene if his hand everything has already been said
the jack is perfect for me with regard to any further notice

UTILIZATION

The neck is super thin and fast everything I need donations perssonlement

the thing I love about this skyscraper is the versatility

(Both pickups are single coil and split)

UTILIZATION

. A flawless round, with disconcerting ease, access to far more acute than on an easy US TV (I had 3), the port is standing too much "with a good strap you forget, you can sit and play for hours without any fatigue.Le volume knob immediately falls under the fingers, the split application of habit not to interrupt a sentence, but after the coup caught, one forgets.

SOUNDS

But the icing on the cake comes from the ITS, magical, single coil that snaps like a gun on a "mesa F50" and the sharp cry you make the guys who are at the forefront. In doubles, I agree with previous comments, we are working on double GIBSON simplement.En I use a lot while the two microphones with wha + distortion, we obtain a range of sounds that fill me, even without the contribution of a rack.

OVERALL OPINION

Ok, this guitar for just over a year now, I gave him time to "work", the result is excellent. I found this TV with a buddy who runs a music store and who had the hat makers recevoir.Franchement Korean, Americans should monitor their guitars, because I saw you crying at the finish . It is true that the body is so beautiful that it would be a shame to scratch with a pick, which shield indispensable.Le translucent quality / price ratio, I thought there was an error when I set, as long as it lasts ..... A buy eyes closed.

OVERALL OPINION

I also have this guitar for a year now, the model with two Seymour Duncan and frankly I have no complaints! The pickups are the height of their reputation and the Blues / Rock is IDEAL!

Only a brief comment from my fellow users, I have not the "smoking" the acastillage tends fast enough from the friction zone, ie the o the bridge there is the hand and on the volume knobs and tone ... gave the character a little nice "usquot, which makes it even more crunchy!
Another thing, do not hesitate to see several different models because I also noticed that the table was more or less successful depending on the guitar, I am lucky to have fallen on a decoupage uniform and regular, this is not the case of two or three others I've seen> attention to this detail!

Come on guys no snob, forget the Americans try and run this great guitar, you will not deu your trip !!!!! (Especially for the price / equipment)> Note: a BIG 9 (not supplied with carry case to store it .. and yet it's not the guitar that is at issue but Fender )

- Manufacturing Coren, of exquisite! It's better than a tradition made in China or Indonsia (no comparison). Year: 2004 (I think)
- On my own, micro Humbucker Di Marzio, splitable ... they are cream, the most beautiful effect
- Horse tlcaster standard type, 6 bridges
- Volume and tone (which also splits the mic)
- Set neck like a Les Paul!

Manufacturing that has nothing to envy to Mexican or even a certain standard United States

UTILIZATION

- Manche super nice, very late, very flat. When I resumed my old Washburn N2, the handle end, however, seems to me Nerma.
- Acute easy access ... tlcaster requires ...
- Weight very lightweight (mahogany) body of very fine ... never seen personally
- A super versatile twang typic (or nearly) of tl micro acute split big fat double-well ... many thanks to sustain handle al.

SOUNDS

Rock, punk rock, reggea ... anything goes
DSL-amp marshall 40w all-tube pedals + Boss OD2 (MIJ of 88!). Nothing else ...
-Ca is a slap in the acute, well the big fat serious (humbucker) / Setting the Tone makes a jazzy sound ... a good invoice you to see (well, hear)
-I like this cot versatile ... not need 12 guitars ... just the one!

OVERALL OPINION

- 1 year of use ... I'm in love with my guitar
- The -? I will say that two knobs and two volume knobs of Tone t have a must ... but I abuse. Otherwise, the head looks lgrement down lorsquon stands ... but nothing serious.
- Yes, some including the Fender Tele Us Highway 1 in which j'hsitais
- EXCELLENT report (pay to OCCAZ 350euros on eb), have to be crazy to buy something else
- Mine is golden (Goldtop)! hhh!! After much searching on the internet, I have never seen this model! Yet this is an original colors ... sold, it seems, exclusively on the Asian market ...
-Of course ... imagine the combination with humbucker Fender tl + has marshall lamps ... I have a palette of sound crazy, look no!

Telecaster custom flame top
This guitar is assembled in the core parts are manufactured in the USA and the finish is clean and beautiful!
The handle and yes al! is a modern C may flatten. It has 22 frets trs well poses an ebony fingerboard and abalone markers in the most beautiful effect.

Two beeps in Semour duncan american made chard, their record is extensive trs from blues to heavy everything goes! Boiled a Polivalente I say, judge a three-position selector rather volume, a knob of Tone and increasingly a push pull for split mics either SERIES or in parallel. What makes us nothing short of six combinations.

The Chevallet fixed that for my part I regret (it become trs but require the associate to the collar round the strings through the body of our generous sustain tle is fenomenal!

UTILIZATION

The handle is a fan of the highway on your way round here gibson did in the modern ateindre without the finesse of a ibanez raproche it will be about even. Finish painted in the same tone the body with white pinstripes and trs is surperbe enjoyable play.
The custom still tle dmarque the rest of the production Fender neck so the neck, and the junction Sleeve sewn in for easy ACCS Acute too! we are in the trs, trs class!

The shape reminds one tle SERTE yes it is! But the outline is still Fasson Stat Corp., the weight it consequant tle bodibuilde our abuse of steroids, ca surprised at dpart but for tle is really heavy, but it's good suporte is to sustain anything like it!

The probe is great even when unpluged djas his sone of a marshal I say no! one branch, probe light, full rich round cots believe that it is played on a Les Paul activates the push-pull and is more djas tle longer snapping as a probe of how the blues Funck. It pushes the race marshal all lamps of background distortion, it's a slash tlecaster! We activate the push-pull and that is hitting the heavy, Mr Hendrix. short, polivallent!

SOUNDS

For those who wants to tackle as it is for your servant is simply gnial!

I play on a Marshall JCM and also a Fender The Twin "red knob" and throughout the registry password.
Well it's not a Start but it's on with the push pull it can be on same aproach. APRS for probes guibson round and warm is all that has BB King and Jimi Page and Slash as well, a beautiful family all the same!

OVERALL OPINION

I guitard this past year I buy it by accident actually, I walked into the store to buy strings, I saw the beautiful, I have a good time ssaille (c 'is that I prefer the sounds normally more Strato) and considering the price and the look baby SOND I left with my strings and a tlecustom!.

In short the finish is great, beyond any doubt that this is superior in Mexico.
The guitar is beautiful trs, flamtop, liserais white on the body and the handle, he even painted up the head of the same color as the body 'trs is beautiful!
Verdict trs beautiful guitar that sounds like no one but more like a tlecaster Lespaul tsrsonable price for a device of that class.

UTILIZATION

Grip: no apparent defect of violin making.
Nice light guitar on his shoulder.
Not very easy access treble.
beautiful finish of the table in maple, good vintage look.

SOUNDS

Enjoyable to play guitar as a whole rather typed rock blues.
The clean sounds are clear and also gives good crunch.
A lot of possibilities with the microphones and split.
missing a little fender banging typical: compromise fender / gibson gibson with a strong inclination.
I play with a ToneLab SE and I am very pleased with the sounds that j'obtient for my blues rock style.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8 months. I like the sounds I get with the ToneLab typed vintage.
I had a Charvel Model 2, only the guitar to play Hard. For a change I do not regret. Good value for money, I do it again this choice.

Everything has been said.

I changed the bridge by a mechanical Graphtech and put autolock Fender, details that amplify the potential of a skyscraper ... And it's much nicer ^ ^

UTILIZATION

Handle very nice, soft touch, not an end but not the Ibanez (ERK).
Thinner than a standard TV it seems.

Very good ergonomics, cutting the stomach.

The microphones orgine are very good but I'm not too seymour, so I put Dimarzio and there I can play everything.

Way in jazz gibson neck pickup (I kept the '59), metal with a very modern bridge in Dropsonic (Lamb of God, Gojira, etc. ...), old school (with the split, its excellence by RATM ), its crystal clear with the spit bridge also.

Really versatile.

SOUNDS

Fits all styles with proper mics.

Its mahogany body can deal with all the styles, the softer the more extreme.

I play on Engl Fireball + 2x12 XL NOS.

I love all the sounds. Thank goodness!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for several months.

I bought it without even trying, I knew it would be good. For the 900th (mods included) was a beast race, rare, and very pretty (this booktmatch!). It sounds more aggressive than a skyscraper with EMG, without its weak points ...

9 with the mods and microphones, but a big 8.

A great discovery.

made in korea but I agree with previous review, very nice violin. mine still has a slight defect on the binding of the handle, nothing bad ...
set neck gibson way, a pure delight ...


UTILIZATION

very comfortable to play guitar, very light with its already a very full load, it makes everything feel like plugging Desuite

SOUNDS

Ideal for rock, blues, gibson sound is very distinctive, which eventually hinder me in the long run (it's not a telecaster les paul!) as a result I replaced the original saymour duncan by Rio Grande Big Bottom Set (+ crunchbox punchbox) for a more typed texas potato and monstrous! Interestingly, I also unplugged tone (I thought the volume pot) original ineffective!) I am now completely satisfied with the sound!

OVERALL OPINION

superguitare I love it especially with the Rio Grande, a few reservations about the quality of electronic components, but it's easily changed! at this price of true happiness
