« Good guitar »

Fender telecaster is a fun guitar if you really like the good clean playing and a solid medium to low gain type of guitar. This is a guitar that many country players are going to turn into a mini soft rocking in you rock players are going to turn to for the guitar needs. It has a good tone in a unique sustain and the feeling of comfort ability of the top guitar overall is quite exceptional. You have two single coil pickups the body shape is pretty dance it doesn't have the natural tendencies to get a good solid distortion from. It has a good harmonics in good overtones when you use in conjunction with a decent delay pedal or a Fender amp of amplifier of some sort. It's a fun guitar and many people I think overlook this guitar because of just the popularity of the Fender Stratocaster and only having to single coil pickup's. That's just assumption it probably theory of mine for I think that this guitar gets a second rate from any guitar players. But overall this is a great sounding in a great feeling guitar and for someone he needs that specific telecaster sound which no other guitar can replicate and this is the only way to go.

SOUNDS

The tone of it is very unique. It doesn't sound like a Fender Stratocaster or a Fender Jaguar or anything other than that Fender makes. It has its own style and own flavor in the voicing of it really lends itself to a good solid low rock tone. But even a country players going to grab his guitar because its neck is very comfortable. It's easy to play lead lines and country lickes with this instrument.


I really like the tar sound when you couple it with a good solid vintage Fender amplifier and maybe even use some decent delay pedal for some ethereal sounds but you also need a good overdrive pedal to combine with this guitar. The pit pick up some these guitars are very good so I suggest swapping those out for some Seymour Duncan pick ups. They have decent pick ups but nothing that comes close to Seymour Duncan pick up. To swap those out to grab a good analog delay pedal and probably a decent overdrive or distortion paddle in your to have a great guitar set up this go to fit in most band purposes.

OVERALL OPINION


I highly recommend everyone and every guitar player to own a telecaster at that will give its user a lot of hours of great playing and inspiration. I knew you can find his guitar for right around $1100 which is a great price if you looking for a good quality American made guitar. He has a great feeling in a great balance and overall the neck is what really sells it for me on this guitar. point in their career. It's a great sounding guitar to very unique guitar
