Published on 10/10/11 at 21:14The Fender telecaster is a sleek and cool instrument with a perfect sound for clean gain clean style playing and a unique sustain overall.

SOUNDS
I primarily like these guitars with the good clean fender amplifier and an overdrive distortion pedal of some sort. I usually couple that with a good digital or analog delay and maybe some modulation from a phase or or chorus pedal of some sort. I find that this guitar thrives with Seymour Duncan pick ups installed and using those of the faxing distortion boxes to drive a clean American amplifier. That is my ideal scenario with these guitars has to be with a nice Fender clean amp , and overdrive pedal,a and a nice digital delay. This combo sounds fantastic.
OVERALL OPINION
You can find the fender telecaster in pretty much any guitar retailer or shop in the world. This is a very common instrument to find and most retailers and they can be found very easily in the used section of many classifieds. If you just come through eBay. You can find them all the time on that auction site. I highly recommend these guitars to anyone he's looking for a specific sound that can only come from a Fender telecaster guitar. It's a great percussive sound any sonic brilliant instrument.
