iamqman « Beautiful guitar!! »
Published on 08/11/11 at 13:33When you think of the Fender music company you think of exceptionally built amplifiers and guitars. The Fender Stratocaster is one of the most iconic guitars in the world. In a close second with the Fender telecaster guitar. This is one of the most recognized guitars on touring stages and recordings. If you ever listen to any country album or even mild rock album you've probably heard a Fender Telecaster.
This guitar is a red body with a black pick guard and a maple fretboard. This is a very stunning and exceptionally beautiful guitar. This has to be one of the best looking Fender telecaster that I've seen. I love the body which is also my favorite color of guitar with the black pick guard white maple fretboard. The combination of these colors and this look on this guitar is a very stunning piece.

SOUNDS
If you've ever played Fender telecaster did you know the tone you can get from this guitar. It is a clean shiny beautiful tone. It is not to be a high gain tone with the single coil pickups but you will get a great sustain and clean distortion setting. This amplifier sounds exceptional with the fender amplifier or a Marshall amplifier. Use this in conjunction with a good overdrive pedal such as an OCD or evening Ibanez tube screamer. I like the sound of this with a analog delay or analog chorus pedal. You can give very good shiny clean tone and even a good solid sustaining distortion tone with the mild single coil pickups.
OVERALL OPINION
I highly recommend this guitar for any guitarist looking for a clean guitar. These guitars can be picked up online or in most guitar shops for right around $1149. That is a very good price for this guitar and a very good price for an American built guitar. It has its own unique tone very different from the Gibson Les Paul and very different from the Fender Stratocaster. This can be a life owning guitar if you treat it well and use it for what it can do. Is it guitar that you can pass down from generation to generation because of a high quality built standards and the versatile tone that is can achieve.
