The Fender music company is one of the biggest and most influential amplifier and guitar builders in the world. The center telecaster is one of the most iconic guitars in the world. Every guitar player is either seen a Fender telecaster or as you see Fender telecaster in some aspect. Touring professionals and recording guitarist have used Fender telecaster's since its inception back in the 50s. This is a guitar that recreates that sound in a modern way.

SOUNDS

This is a resonate sounding guitar and a blooming tone that just fills the air. One thing you can count on the fender telecaster is a great singing clean tone that is very transparent when dialing in heavy distortion. These are the kind of guitars that really bring out the players nuances in there speaking style and strumming style. Each guitar player comes through naturally when using a Fender telecaster. Fender decided on these guitars that they would lighten up the paint job on the guitars. What this means is that the guitars but resonate and sound more better then with a heavier coat of paint. This allows the wood naturally breathe and expand.

OVERALL OPINION

You can find these guitars for ride round the price of $999 she's a fantastic deal considering many of the other boutique guitar builders charging three times this amount. I would highly recommend this guitar to any country player or mild rock player or even a pop guitarist. You can find a good town to matter what camp you used with this guitar. Even using a nice delay pedal or overdrive pedal will help bring out this guitars natural beauty and sound.
