SOUNDS

The sound is a true American Standard model, no surprises, it twang great slice it well is slamming .... How short a Telecaster

OVERALL OPINION

I found mine at € 800 with Hard Case No. soucy therefore, they are resistant shovels provided to take care of mine with a date of 92 rare Surf Green finish Metal by well tested against the switch with micro time it crachotte a flick bomb and leaving, the knobs can make the game so like a bit of a screwdriver that is bueno

I got this guitar at a chain called Jim's Music in souther california, 2003. Paid around $700.

The tele's got a really good feel and great clean sound. I have a fender deville tube amp and the sound I get out of the two is amazing. I can even play classical with the tone turned down. I especially like the neck pickup with its dark full sound.


The one thing I don't like about the tele is how crappy its metal distorted sound is. It's perfect for led zeppelin type distortion, but anything harder than that sounds really bad. It is impossible to get any kind of Metallica sound, even with the best distortion pedals.

Quality and construction are great.

Probably near the best electric guitar you can get for any clean music, good for overdrive and light distortion, horrible for metal and punk.

Rope Bridge Crossing American Standard type with 6 bridges, stainless steel.
Chrome fittings.

Maple neck with a profile Modern "C" - satin polyurethane varnish.

UTILIZATION

The handle is a gem! The softness and absolute grip but requiring a good technique because it forgives nothing.

It is a bit heavy (compared to an older model I had) but very well balanced.

Access to acute seems to me not difficult but I do not have large paws, and fits for the solos.

The sound is great, soft, aggressive, round, warm, with incredible sustain.

SOUNDS

Fender single coil pickups with dynamic sound and "vintage". In short the sound of the Telecaster!

I learned to play on a Telecaster dated 1968 but I loved pourave and on which I played the Metal. It was my reference to it.

With this, I discovered "The Fender" (Telecaster), the clean, clear, clean, clean, perfect. It will be my guitar for everything that is not Metal. Composed of infinite perspectives.

I play on a 150 MARSHALL LEAD.

The sound distortion has nothing to do with double coils and suddenly I figured it was not made for such use (in an optical Metal) Blues Crunch but it does.

In his clear is absolute happiness! It goes from a soft, mellow sound aggressive and powerful. Rock, Funk, Blues, Country, Ballad, everything happens for the best!

OVERALL OPINION

A remake? Without hesitation and even pay twice the price I paid.
At this level of quality is Nirvana immediate and direct investment in the long run! !

I played on a Telecaster for 18 years. This is a guitar "emotional." I use it recently (March 2010) but I play every day.
My guitar is precious (my precious ...)

Bought second-hand 600 euros instead of 650 after a short negotiation, I consider it a great deal. A small shock on the lower body (I skipped painting repaired myself) and a light on a corner of the head that I had not even seen for both until the I make out the seller was the deal of the century unexpected!

Given the build quality and its sound quality, pay more seems to me justified especially after comparing with Mexican and more with Squier.

I love his line.
The old was black with a white plate, a face eternal imortalisée by Francis Rossi and updated today by pure metal (JIM ROOT, JOHN 5)) that says it all!
The news is cream with a black plate, I find that it throws less but ... she is beautiful! !
Softer!

Updated in March 2011. After a year of use and compared to all my other guitars, this guitar is a must. This is the best finish, it does not go out of tune, bravo, mechanical, no rope does frieze, everything is clean, perfect! The sound is also perfect and, finally, distortion (with an amp or a pedal modeling), it holds up in all styles!
Overall quality flawless, perfect, Fender!

The Fender Telecaster is absolute superb instrument. From top to bottom up and down inside and out. This is such a great instrument and a solid tone for just about any style of music. The telecaster is a somewhat different body then a Stratocaster in that it doesn't have its double cut away top and bottom heels. It's only got a single cutaway which is similar to a Gibson Les Paul. However, this instrument carry's a particular tone that no other guitar can match.

UTILIZATION


This guitar features to single coil pickups as well as a volume control knob and a tone control knob. It also has a pickup selector and that's pretty much about it. You get a straight up rock guitar that is just brilliant to listen to and is just a fantastic overall instruments.

SOUNDS


I love the tone of this guitar primarily with a good solid clean amplifier and any distortion boxer overdrive pedal out in front of the amp. This is a guitar that's not going to get you thick saturated warm tones, but it's going to get you a percussive high frequency snappy clean tone. If you use a lot of distortion in your amplifier in this guitar does sound good but it's not going to quite give you that beef and drive that you might be used to out of a Gibson Les Paul guitar or another humbucker sinstalled guitar.

OVERALL OPINION


These guitars are very highly used in the country world as well as all the way up to the hard rock world. This is the kind of guitar that is going to be a life or guitar for you. It has a unique tone that is very fender like because it is Fender but extremely different than a Fender Stratocaster. Both can pretty much play in the same style of music but this one has a little bit different feel in the neck and is pretty little bit thinner so it gets a little faster aggressive snappier lead and solo tones. They generally feature ash wood so you get that nice brilliant tones good for clean playing. You can find these guitars for just around thousand dollars or so new and used for around $6-$700. You can find them pretty much anywhere you look for any guitar instruments.

The Fender Tele is a cool and simple design. It has a great feel and a fantastic look. This is a simple guitar with two single quill pick ups and volume control knob any tone control knob with a pick up selector. This is a very simple guitar but yet a extremely great sounding instrument. There isn't a whole lot to get in the way of tone with this instrument. There's not a lot of extra backs or switches or booths of any kind I get in the way of your guitars natural organic tone.

These guitars work in any music setting that you find yourself in. If you play anything from indie rock to pop rock or even hard rock then this is going to be a great setting for your rig for that style of music. If you use a high gain amplifier then it is going to be a mild tone overall and not very thick and saturated. If you have a clean amplifier such as a Fender twin reverb or fender Princeton amplifier then this guitar is really good match with those amps. I like to use this guitar with a fender Hot Rod Deluxe amplifier and a good overdrive pedal such as an Ibanez tube screamer and a nice digital or analog delay. When you have these pedals with this guitar you can get some great sonic tones.

OVERALL OPINION

At new you can find these guitars for around $1000 or so depending on the actual specs of the instrument. Some paint jobs have a little bit different price and such but nothing that will be outrageous. This is a great guitar for cleans and anyone needing a good solid guitar for this particular tone. A Strat and a LP will not sound like this and visa versa. So this is a good addition to any guitar collection.

Supplied with case-molded strap, cable, cloth ...

UTILIZATION

- The rosewood fingerboard is so enjoyable trs you can walk without any problem on the handle, slide it alone!
- Access to the latest cargo is not the most ais but remains even done everything possible with a can drive, you get used to rev faster!
- I love its graceful shape and smooth curves, there does not hang with the design of the head or body ... me it suits me perfectly. Only drawback (and the time for me, it is not one): The weight: that with a solid alder body this guitar is worth its weight in cacahute, and it is sometimes hard stand on with this beast hooked the shoulder, but hey, is not it a sign of the quality of the material?
- Regarding the rglage sound, do not esprer find "its own" ds the first time, contrary to what some believe, the TV standards of resource and I m me, I do not exploit all or even found

SOUNDS

- Although this guitar is more "target" as the Stratocaster, which is more ambivalent on TV offers a wide plume noise.
- Of course, this guitar is the most dstine Blues or country (and again) but I can play both the English rock, rock more general and its derivatives ...
For those who complain of the impossibility to play sounds more mtal, trash or Hardcore ... Well they did that not buy this type of guitar and head over to a SG ...
- The microphone of a fever, my taste a lot of punch in and out sound trs sec.
- When was that of the grave, it is warm trs
when handling the Tone knob you can get an extraordinary range of sounds
It would both clear the road or a distortion or overdrive, I love.

OVERALL OPINION

I do possde this guitar for 2 months, then, is to tell you how much I have not had time to discovering relement. The finish is perfect (after all, this is not a US fender for nothing) and you can qu'tre charm by this instrument (which totally changes a replica of poor quality offers by brands side).
This is a guitar that keeps a lifetime even if it can be supplemented with other guitars ...
The fact that it sold in its Case, with all the accessory is an additional asset to tip the balance of good cluck.
The only problem that is not really A: The price, in Euro 1300 in France is sure it is expensive.
Personally, I am providing the direct in California to qualify for a small reduction of 400 euro ... is to know ....

Every little nuance and dynamic that you give this instrument is going to be amplified through the pick ups that are in the guitar. It is such a great guitar for allowing the players unique feel and style and approach to come through those pickups in your amplifier and projected through the speakers. It's such a great and shrimp as a unique tone and a unique sustain that is unlike any other guitar.

SOUNDS


I primarily like these guitars with a good Fender amplifier of some kind. I like the clean tones at Fender amps give me an couple that with a good solid distortion pedal or overdrive pedal and maybe some digital delay and this guitar really rings through for me. I never like this guitar with a high gain amplifier even know it will sound good in many circumstances but I just preferred with a good solid Fender clean amplifier with them . I like using the manufacture distortion tone from an overdrive pedal or distortion pedal because it's just my personal preference. There's really no way to play this guitar or a right way to play it just give it what you have and I'll be a good friend to you.

OVERALL OPINION

I would highly recommend this guitar to anyone searching for one of the best guitars that has ever been created. At new these guitars come in right at around $999. That is a great price for a USA built tone machine. These are cool guitars and a player's guitar for sure. They have a touch and rugged feel to them that makes them a perfect gigging guitar.

The Fender telecaster is easily the most soulful and transparent guitar that a lot of people have played. There's a lot that can be said about the fender telecaster for one thing that comes to mind is that it's a very transparent guitar and what I mean by that is that he gives you exactly what you put into it. It's not to be a ripping high gain metal type guitar that accepts distortion or high levels of gain, but this is the county guitar and if you give it enough tube distortion or any type of the fact that it's going get you a very good transparent tone that will cut through the band mix very well.

SOUNDS


Simple design with two single coil pickup's a volume control knob and a tone control knob and pick up selector. There's not a lot of extra stuff to get in the way it is just a simple no-nonsense design. It does have a nice smooth tone that is appropriate for country music all the way up to hard rock music. I don't like the fender pickups so I suggest swapping those out for some nice Seymour Duncan pick ups or anything that you like. I've never been a fan of Fender's brand pick ups and matter what they are so I voice swamped mine out for Seymour Duncan's cause that's what I prefer. This guitar will work great in a nice Fender amp of some kind.

OVERALL OPINION


These are great guitars built right here in America and have a great balance and feeling for the money it's kind hard to beat. You can find these for right around the thousand dollars or so at that price it is worth the investment. This is a great guitar for anyone looking for a different style in a different tone to your arsenal or maybe if you're looking for to this particular time then there's really no other guitar that can do it quite like a Fender telecaster.

Guitar not revolutionary .... Now! Obviously, the others were all bitten. But it was revolutionary when it came out.

Two microphones, a selector 3 positions
22 frets
fixed bridge (6 bridges, not like in the days when there were only 3)
maple neck, maple fingerboard, truss rod adjustments and the tilt possible.

In short, TV, whatever.

UTILIZATION

Fender pleasant to handle. I like
No ergonomics to fall, such as access to acute, but enough
Adjustments-simple sound.
.

SOUNDS

The sound is the TV. Everybody knows. and that's what well.
No need to make a major speech, the history of rock should be sufficient.
.

OVERALL OPINION

The TV is a legend.
With its faults and qualities, but that's why we buy one someday.

I used a few times with some friends, and I prefer the one with the maple fingerboard, because I have a Stratocaster with rosewood fingerboard, and I prefer to play the difference of the shot.

One of the qualities of this skyscraper is that today when you buy one, it's hard to go wrong. It sounds right away.

The high quality of the lady is having a very recognizable sound, and going very well in a group.
In particular, if you want to be sharp and incisive in his clear, the TV is the weapon you need.

No max score because that is very typical.

Go if the max score anyway. ()

The Fender telecaster is an great accomplishment for the guitar world. It was the first guitar as introduced by the Fender music company and still today is still one of the most iconic and glorified instruments in the rock 'n roll world. It's a simple design with two single coil pickups with a volume control knob and a tone control knob with a pick up selector. It's in easy guitar and it's just a simple design and really just a classic sound. It has a nice organic sound that is very addictive if you're playing clean amplifiers all the way up to moderately mild gain amplifiers.

UTILIZATION

The tone of these guitars are phenomenal. They give you exactly what you put into them. They have a nice clean shiny tone but you do you give it a little dirt or distortion , they can give you a nice driving sustain tone. These are great guitars for country players all the way up to rock 'n roll players. It has a nice feel and a nice balance overall to the instrument. These necks are a little bit thinner and slimmer than the fender Stratocaster guitars so you can really get that good plucking in solo style down pretty easily with these necks. That's why a lot of country players gravitate towards these instruments is because they can play pretty quickly with their lead and solo rhythm playing. Plus they just sounds great through a clean amplifier which is a little bit of distortion in it.

SOUNDS

If you do play this guitar then if you have a hiking amplifier it will sound excellent as well. I really like these guitars with a nice fender hot rod deluxe amplifier and good overdrive pedal with some digital delay. It gets a great solid rock 'n roll town that is perfect for covers and just general pop or rock music. That would be my perfect combo with this guitar. I have never liked the sound of the Tele with a high gain amp but more with a clean amp with some boosted pedal overdrive.

OVERALL OPINION


I highly recommend a Fender telecaster to any guitar player because it has such a unique sound and feel that is different from any other guitar. So if you have a Gibson Les Paul or Fender Stratocaster or Paul Reed Smith guitar or anything of that nature. This will go well with your collection of guitars because it has its own unique feel and sound. You're just starting out on the guitar this is a great guitar start with because it has a good basis for burning chords and the feel of the neck is just right.

The Fender Telecaster is the first guitar from the Fender factory and still today continues to be one of the best and most highly recognizable guitars on the planet. They have a great feel and a great tone for country music all the way up to rock and roll music. You can find this guitar used whether it be on stage somewhere or even in the recording studio. Its a great spanky clean tone that gives a fantastic sustain that is unique to this guitar which doesn't sound like a Fender stratocaster or a Gibson Les Paul guitar. No other guitar can replicate the sound of this guitar quite as well. It has an easily identifiable tone that has a fantastic sustain and a great feel overall.

UTILIZATION

* Alnico V pickups
* Deluxe hardware
* Solid alder body (black, 3-color sunburst, candy cola, and blizzard pearl) or ash body (2-tone sunburst, natural, crimson red transparent)

* Delta-tone™ no-load circuit

* Bent steel Fender saddles
* American Standard Tele® Bridge Plate (steel saddles and brass plate) for improved resonance
* Thinner undercoat for improved body resonance
* Rosewood or maple fretboard
* Staggered machine heads


SOUNDS


The tone of this guitar is a very cleaning tone. It's good to be a tone cuts through the band mix very well and has a nice crisp cut to the overall voicing of the guitar. If you couple this with a clean amplifier than your to get some solid nice sparkly tones. If you using this with a high gain amplifier and you're still probably going be lacking in the gain saturation because the the single coil pickups. This guitar just doesn't have that beefy thick tone like a Gibson Les Paul or Gibson Explorer guitar that features a mahogany wood with a humbucker pickup install. Is good to be a guitar that has a chimy and percussive snappy tone.

OVERALL OPINION

These are great sounding guitars and they have a distinct tone all to themselves. If you are a guitar player who has a guitar collection or if you're looking for that specific tone that you hear your head or that maybe why your favorite artists play this is going to be very particular tone so I suggest playing one of these guitars before buying it at least online. You can find them for right around $1000 or so and they are very easily to find in the used classified sections of forums or even on eBay.

Any good only regret the bridges are not vintage but it is still good with it!
With time and the slap of the discovery last, I would add one small problem: The microphone is good but the quality of the violin can make the purchase of microphones péchus more feasible. The same applies to mécanniques are still correct.
In short, a violin not perfect but good for the price level seems to me correct.

UTILIZATION

The neck (all maple with me) is a real massacre !!!!! While the kings of Shreds really will not like. In fact the handle is not an ironing board but it is very ergonomic. Let me explain: it is slightly curved on the top which is great for swinging arrangements for hours without getting tired but this may baffled at large displacements on the handle.

SOUNDS

No complaints from its pure fender with a neck pickup for rhythm and nikel a bridge pickup that how to say ..... "Twang" like hell every time it's nirvana!
Well measured intermediate position, the emphases in emerge atttaques particularly well.
Delta tone is nice too but nothing frankly staggering.

OVERALL OPINION

A great little scratch to the sound we love tv
Well above models mex I've tried.

First of all, hello everyone!
Fender Telecaster American series (018402700) 3colors sunburst.
Factory-American
-22 Boxes
-Maple fingerboard
Handle-type "C"
... Telecaster everything over standard ...!

Note max because that's all I expected.

UTILIZATION

I think this type of neck Fender ttrès are easy to learn, as thin and narrow enough not to have felt like a log in his hands.
I also play a Gibson Les Paul Classic, and I wanted something diametrically opposed to the level of touch, you win. Contrary to an opinion that was asked earlier, I think the weight is pretty insignificant in the face of tanks gibson ... I think it's honest.
I put 9 because I feel comfortable playing really great, I saw this since I scratch, just a little flat for access to acute that will not be easy for small mimine ...

Weight checked on a request: 3.5 kg for telecaster
against 4.4 kg for a Gibson Les Paul Classic

SOUNDS

Coming from the world of punk rock, so I played on Gibson Les Paul Classic + mesa rectoverb, need power, and contrast with 2nd guitar on Yamaha Pacifica + Laney VH100R.
Marriage is good because very complementary.

Today only guitarist, I prefer to opt for versatility.
So tele + mesa, the clean sound is very good, warm and clear (maybe not as much as Fender + fender banging, I grant you).

On boosted channel, low gain, the sound is very warm, and as soon as you start typing in the high gain, we quickly realized the wonderful dynamics of this guitar.

Even putting the two knobs at the bottom of the guitar, piano attack very clear sound casi / crunchy, and when you start to pick the oatmeal, you feel the power and reach the edge.

Still better than having to manage one or more pedals to the feet, you can clearly handle the size of your attack with his right hand and that's really good, this guitar is an extension of my soul, there is no other word ...
The Les Paul is very hard to hold at that level, it comes out right away too ...

OVERALL OPINION

Guitar bought 2 months ago € 1200 in stores, compared with a 50th anniversary stratovolcano (very good too!), I find that the tele goes further in cutting edge, cutting ...

great versatility, there's only move the selector microphones to realize ...
That said I would not use it either to play the big metal big huge distortion, I think it is more its reach, it takes humbucker ...

That said, I recommend strongly to all those (and those!) Who are looking to try this instrument, because as you know, this is only my opinion.
As soon as I got it in the hands I knew I will leave with ...

Good hunting everyone, feel free to mail me if need more info (n.gaillard357 @ laposte.net)

Tele 24 frets United States a short tele what?

UTILIZATION

The handle is a great tele mache round enough, access to acute is huge, superb ergonomics (perfect balance ...) who has a gibson will not be out of place tro side handle (cons with nothing to do .. .: p)

SOUNDS

With a micro Di Marzio bridge (because the original bolt a bit and lacks aggressiveness) is sublime! a distortion that starts like clockwork greasy ideal for rock / metal / pop my marshall began badly bear! , What about the neck pickup ... good it feels that there is a reverb built into a very clean punchy! ideal for blues / funk / acoustic frankly it's superb! against distortion in by the neck pickup is horrible but the di Marzio is for! I put 10

OVERALL OPINION

It's frankly a beautiful jewelry! I'm really a fan of fender telecaster in particular (the layers are thinner neck is always a different type of games) are excellent models US EXCEPT original bridge pickup and electronics that could have been more neat but with all the remakes has OCCAZ where I put my di Marzio is the thunder I have the equivalent of a deluxe, in short a beautiful skyscraper that will please any fan of telecaster ...

The fender telecaster is a cool and fun's guitar. It has a good field to the body and the neck is an exceptional feeling. The neck. Overall is a very thin or neck my hands than a Fender Stratocaster and deathly more than a Gibson Les Paul. This guitar neck is not quite in Ibanez guitar neck but is pretty close. It usually has a poly finish on the back where is an Ibanez neck is a boiled neck. So the neck itself is in the snooze but you can always get that sanded off.

The center telecaster is an iconic guitar in such a great guitar for most solid music. Many country players will turn to this guitar more than any other guitar due to its very percussive sound and note separation. All of the notes when you play or strum or even any kind of lead line racing are very separated from each other. This allow someone to play a medium to low gain setting and would really cut those tones and notes in the mix. They have a very fast neck so country players also like the tone of this guitar.

SOUNDS

I really like the time of this guitar when you couple it with a good medium to low gain amplifier such as a center twin reverb or send her hot Rod deluxe amplifier. Those amplifiers are just made for guitars and vice versa. When you use a nice overdrive pedal and a good analog delay pedal or course petal. Overall this is a great guitar for any hard rock player all the way down to me any rock or country player. All the rock guitar players in England grab this guitar because of it's great for success of tone and overall three-dimensional tone. It feels good in the mix and just a great overall guitar it does have some single coil pick up, so you will need to really beef up your distortion if you want to play this in a hard rock setting.

OVERALL OPINION

I highly recommend this guitar to anyone is wanting a good solid clean American guitar. I knew you can find these guitars right around $1100 which is still at the price in my opinion. It's a fun guitar and a good complement to your guitar collection. I would recommend swapping out the pick ups for a better output pick up such as some Seymour Duncan's because the fender pickups are not very good overall. Don't get the job done but you can find a better pick up which really bring this guitar to life.

The varnish is a little fragile (it does not wear out gradually as a nitro lacquer Highway One, but he can not bear the slightest shock).

UTILIZATION

Personally I love the neck profile, it can easily play in bars or from the thumb on top. CHAC is good for acute without being exceptional (we feel the heel), the guitar is well balance.
The sound is on, all fawns no thirty six thousand possible combinations!
Question comfort, Tele with no bevel is done better elsewhere, but we also like the Tele for its default!

SOUNDS

Some criticize him of being chastened by a report MODEL vintage or '52 or '62 RI, the other prfreront and less capricious and mat.
I could compare my Tele Body Alder / rosewood fingerboard with another body American Series frne / key stocky, it sounds more "smooth", less slamming, but it remains even when the typical grain, slightly sour, the Telecaster, it passes easily into a mix.
The neck pickup is smooth the sharp slap well.

OVERALL OPINION

I have over the past year, I love it! I tried a Nashville and Highway 1, it is clearly in the range above, in terms of sound and finish.
The price is the absolute lev stepfather just in the range, but the box is included.

- USA tele standart,
- Fixed bridge "fender" typical 80 with its six bridges
- 2 volume and tone pots + 1 slcteur microphone positions 3 (severe, Mlenge, acute)

UTILIZATION

- Channel trs so late while a pice Saddle: single, sober, "devilishly comfortable" !!!!!
- Good Access in acute, m ^ me time is a 22 round boxes,
- Ergonomics, although this is a cot and not a strat tl, then one may have to adapt (but rest assured you've trs quickly!)
- On the tl "sound" is "radical" (typ but it has to be loved !!!!)

SOUNDS

- Ah! Yes it is a style of my zik "rock n 'roll" and then jazz blues brf I'm not going all the deficits!!
- Play a 30-channel MarshallJTM clear! rve is an on-air le'Marshall Anniversary in crunch ... What up!! for all types of amplifiers is a guitar that is played in "clear" "crunch" and not with mga saturations or it loses its "identity"
- I get this beautiful Grae's "clear" dry and crunchy, oily and dry as trs typ but hey it's good for is that I have also chosen!
- I love the whole look, well, comfort "can a rude" and especially what "his" typical dry m ^ me was empty, not a branch it sound projection of hell ...

OVERALL OPINION

- I bought this guitar in 2001, for the record I was looking for a "Start" and as in addition to being a fan of Clapton I'm a fan of Richie Kotzen ... I say all the fawn that j'achte tl now or later ... bullshit because I took time to tame! I had a good year before they can do it "sounds" like I wanted what I like most everything bein ... I love the sound, comfort, look, I must say mine is red with a plate mtallise gray celluloid has a mouth of hell ... (go see it on my profile!) Mystra one accompanied him: the number "2" martel derrire his head, I look far and in fact I knew that dernirement c'tait by what it silent "second CATEGORY" a sort was done in factories at the time of expditions (source Fender France) for a second-digger! it sounds, I got shovels and I still have some (not counting the one I try and I play with my friends rgulirement) and much is my guitar "prf re "!!!! yes I would do without this choice hsitations

I have played numerous Teles over the years and I've noticed that the newest 2010-2011 American Standard Teles are just really great guitars. They're simple, but effective guitars. The improvements made by Fender in the finish, electronics, hardware and quality in the last few years is great and I would definitely say they're on their game as far as quality control and putting out a great guitar, even for the $1,000 price point or so that these guitars are selling for. The necks in particular are something that I have been very impressed with recently. The satin finish that they use is really comfortable and pleasing to the hand. I can play for longer periods of time and not get that annoying stickiness that is commonplace with gloss finished necks. The features of the new Teles are great and it shows how much care Fender put into making a killer workhorse guitar for those who wanted it.

UTILIZATION

The Tele is not my favourite guitar to play all the time simply because you have to fight it a little bit more compared to a Les Paul or even a Strat. The design itself is very much a "plank." It's a flat guitar with no contouring of note, so there can be some discomfort there if you're playing for longer periods of time. The weights of the Teles I've tried vary, but they're usually medium to heavy weight guitars, so they're definitely not the most ergonomic guitar I've ever seen. I can't imagine a problem with long gigs for me (being that my main guitar is a non-chambered Les Paul) so that wouldn't be a major issue for me. Upper fret access is reasonable. It's not the greatest in the world by any means but I haven't had any major issues with it, and the satin neck finish on the new American Standard Teles does facilitate fast playing and going up and down the neck quite well.

Getting a good tone out of the Tele is very simple. This guitar gives back what you put into it. If you play softly with lots of dynamics and a cleaner sound, it reproduces that quite well. However if you really dig into it and are using a brighter, more brash sort of sound, it works equally as well with that sort of tone. It's not for everyone but if you're really into a purer sound, you can't get much more pure than the ol' plank known as the Telecaster.

SOUNDS

I've tried these Teles through various Fender, Marshall, Dr. Z and Mesa Boogie amplifiers, all with excellent results. Teles are a lot more versatile and widespread sounding than some people give credit for. It's a very dynamic and true sounding guitar that really sings in the hands of a good player. I wouldn't say the sound of a Tele is very forgiving by any means... you certainly will hear your mistakes, so playing a guitar like this will definitely bring your chops up.

Clean tones are the strong point of this guitar. Using the neck pickup and rolling the tone back yields some wonderful jazz tones (surprising from a single coil, I must say). However, the best thing to do with one of these is plug into a clean, loud Fender amp, run the guitar wide open, add a dash of that dripping Fender 'verb and let loose with a barrage of licks that take you down to the highway to Nashville. That sort of tone, very bright and pure is PERFECT for country licks and tricks. Because of it's pure tonal nature, you've got to fight it a bit like I was saying, but once you tame it, it's a wonderful feeling, and possibly a bit more rewarding than playing a very easy guitar.

Dirty tones are great as well from this. The pickups in the American Standard models are hotter than the vintage models so you can apply tasteful amounts of grit for that classic blues or rock tone, or you can increase the gain up to savagely high levels to play some shred licks. I find Teles react best for riff based hard rock (if we're discussing drive based tones) because they have a nice crisp, bright edge that sits really well in a mix, and if you put that with a Les Paul or something dark, it makes for a very well seated mix. I wouldn't say this guitar is great for metal styles due to the noise and the bright nature of the guitar, but for classic/hard rock, provided you can tame the noise from the single coils, it can sound awesome with the right amount of grit applied.

OVERALL OPINION

All in all I feel these new American Standard Teles are wonderful and a great part of Fender's line of products. It's a true workhorse and sounds great for many different styles. Though it's not the easiest guitar to play at times (or "tame,") when you get it to do what you want, there isn't a more rewarding feeling in my opinion. For the $1,000 or so that Fender charges and considering the updates they've done on this guitar since about 2008, it's a fantastic bargain for a workhorse musician who wants a plank (albeit a great sounding plank) for their arsenal of guitars.

As the title states, this Telecaster is American made, which is always a good thing with Fender. It has a standard bridge, a maple neck (though I've seen variations), maple fretboard, two single-coil pickups with a three way switch, a volume and a tone knob below the strings.

UTILIZATION

The cutaway on this guitar does provide really easy access to the higher frets, which is great news for lead players. The sound, actually the range of sounds, are pretty easy to get. It might require time for less seasoned players to get the sound they are looking for, but the diversity of tones is actually the main selling point of the instrument. It's a bit heavier than some Fender guitars, but nowhere near as heavy as a Gibson Les Paul, and the shape is standard Tele. The drivers are stable on my instrument, at least. Playing this guitar is a dream, it's very smooth and it's not taxing on the fingers at all.

SOUNDS

The Tele sounds really great with a Marshall or Fender amps. A bit noisier than Les Pauls, they still manage to rock pretty hard, and are capable of beefier tones than my normal go-to, my Strat. I like the range of tones that you can get with simple amp and pickup manipulation. Even without tons of gain or effects, you can go from a thick, jazzy tone to a twangy country tone to a ripping electric blues sound easily. With distortion, you can really mess with the pickup selector switch and do some interesting effects (something I learned from Tom Morello in an interview, which I haven't been able to clearly replicate on another guitar). I would say that this guitar, if I needed it to, could suit my style pretty well, since I like to be able to genre-hop.

OVERALL OPINION

I love the versatility of the tones more than anything else, followed closely by the comfort and ability to play. I've tried lesser, cheaper Mexican and Japanese Teles, as well as other brands' imitation Teles, and I've never gotten results as thrilling as the ones I did with this. I think that this is a great purchase, and it's worth it to seek out a high-quality, preferably older used model than a newer one. It's worth the investment because you won't find yourself getting frustrated with it as you mature as a player, the way I did with many other guitars.

The Fender American Series Telecaster has 22 frets two single coil pickups. It has knobs for controlling the volume and tone and has a switch for selecting between the pickups. The set up of the Tele is easy to follow and is easy to get a great sound out of - just let it rip!

UTILIZATION

The American Telecaster is extremely easy to play and feels great overall. It is great for playing both lead and rhythm and it has a classic Tele body which has become so ubiquitous in rock music. It isn't heavy and is really easy to get a good sound out of - both pickups sounds great and is easy to get both a great rhythm tone and a great lead tone.

SOUNDS

I have used guitar for only rock and pop music, as this is what I play most of the time. It definitley works for both applications as the inherent tone is rich and is especially great for classic rock. It sounds great both clean and with overdrive but have found that it isn't suited for heavy distortion, but is great with more of an overdrive distortion.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been playing the American Telecaster for about three years. Like a lot of people I have come to love both the overall feel and sound of the Telecaster. Since it is made in America it is very well built and is the best Telecaster you can buy. It has a unique tone and is great for playing rock n roll. The price is set right for an instrument like this and is comparable to an American Stratocaster. Both are great guitars and have great tone quality - some people like Teles and some like Strats, I like both of them as they are each unique with varieying feels and tones. Overall the Fender American Telecaster is a classic guitar that continues to be a mainstay in rock music.
