    Regarding the frets, they are not covered with varnish to me as I read sometimes stinks, and the level of aesthetics anything reported. I noticed reading the reviews on this guitar that everyone has not quite the same wood through the paint for me is seeing a lot of the wood grain, I would love a little less good but it ' is a detail.
    When I have a new guitar I have control maximum points so as not to be disappointed with the result so I partially disassembled to take a look under the hood and possibly made some alterations if necessary. The lifts are the taff but we'll see in the long term. When the handle is in its very beautiful.
    The electronics against seems a little chip that's a bit crap.

    Overall this is good because the only thing that is possibly fishing electronics and this is what is the easiest (and cheapest) to changer.c is just a visual impression because I was not identify any suspicious sound (crack) use so for now everything is correct we are in a good copy telecaster us.

    UTILIZATION

    the handle is really excellent. This soft V profile has surprised me comfort because I thought (in twisted) this profile going to be awkward because of its size and that it is contrary forme.Au me better than C different from my other guitars and so on that's a really good surprise. Like what nothing is worth trying.
    The profile of the body is not so bad as you might think (compared to the stratosphere).
    I think access to very decent treble.
    the acoustic sound is really not bad. the sound is brilliant even when the strings start to vibrate well ternir.La guitar handy sustain is not ridiculous at all despite a system of bridges that I find archaic.

    SOUNDS

    His side I'm glad this is not the sound of an authentic telecaster 52 ... but at the same time is not what I think of buying when I took this baja. I wanted a typed his telecaster and that's it.
    All positions are nice, however, the S1 is not my cup of tea. It is not really useful, the four basic positions are more than enough for me.
    On my amp shop type fender is great that "twang" well and when I push the overdrive is really nice.

    OVERALL OPINION

    So initially I wanted a telecaster but it was not essential to me so I expected to be pretty hard to judge its qualities and defects. And in the end I have to admit it is really well done, it is very playable and it sounds bien.et bonus it was not too bad set of origin. I patched the 1/4 turn of the screw trusraod and retouched a chouillat the bridges.

    The only downside in my opinion is the electronics. s1 is not useful and is a bit of background noise (buzz) but hey it fits well in mind. I will change all that may be in the future for something more simple and classic.

    I think it is worth its price, neither more nor less. I do not think this is the deal of the century but not a scam.

    I still allows a small note, there may be large differences of a model to another (live in mass production :-/) to you to be vigilant.

    Handle very special round, with a very slight V and a touch a little narrower than average (just over 41mm at nut). The pickups are supposed to be custom shop, at that price, it would be amazing. 4 position selector switch S + a-1. All combinations may not be interesting depending on the amp. And whatever the amp to the vintage hi-gain, one of the positions you will always get away. 3 vintage bridge saddles, not easy for the correctness, but essential to the sound.

And whatever the amp to the vintage hi-gain, one of the positions you will always get away. 3 vintage bridge saddles, not easy for the correctness, but essential to the sound.

    Mechanics do their job, I still up-grader with schaller and fire & stone (yes, I like it so much that I bought two!). Unlike many publicity photos, varnish body is not nearly as translucent, one can distinguish the grain slightly, but it will be difficult to identify the number of pieces of ash body (it is 600 balls, I'm not done no illusions). Sensations are not as finishing a guitar top 1200/1500 euros, but frankly, I have nothing wrong with my Blonde provided. And since you mention: this is the first Tele Blonde accessible to (almost) all, much less expensive than ri52. And look blonde, even if you do not like the look tele, we must recognize that it has the mouth!

    UTILIZATION

    So ... the handle will not please everyone, far from it. That said, those who are moving towards Telecaster expect to have a grip vintage, or at least enough away from the spirit Ibanez. However, this small vee not please everyone. Specificity: 41 mm at the nut, against 42/43 in other models of trade, including Fender. There are only offering this Music Man. This gives grip in mind baseball bat sought by Leo.

    4 position selector déroutera regulars, but for others, no worries. Only the s-1 switch (phase inversion) leave doubtful. It only makes sense with some very high-gain amps. Access to acute is far from what it does best, but this is the price to pay on a Tele. I noticed a problem systematically knob (with the switch for that matter), which moves in the game, and is therefore not always possible. It will tighten a bit.

    For sound, the Telecaster was LE from the grip, even unplugged it twang ...

    SOUNDS

    This guitar is what you can expect better from a Telecaster, with vintage sound but hot-lapped rather supercharged. For rock, it is. But if you type in blues rock, country, well then, it becomes downright nasty! When I fell for this guitar, I was in full freak Brad Paisley (album "Play") and Hellecasters, and this model was what stuck to my best expectations, these sounds rock / blues modern tinged twang to the former. Some U.S. models could perhaps do better? I have not found too biting RI52 (52 by the hotrod against), but it corresponded more to my criteria rather sharp comfort. And then it stuck to my budget.

    It has beautiful sound with excellent microphones provided by desperadoes in fender. Change microphone is not mandatory. I tried the Kinman set, and I dropped, Lekit home made better. I turned to a kit Engine Pickups (handmade Valenciennes Dussenne by Jerome, who also produces micro Aymeric Silvert signature) with a VT0 ... the even better: more accurate, balanced, not aggressive ... to tell you, I play micro bridge solo in a Marshall JCM800 with the distortion on edge ... try it with another Telecaster and you will leave your skin! There, he moves into the mix almost like a humbucker, but 100% single coil sounding. The Broadcaster's vintage ... Even harmonics out with ease. I highly recommend it, especially the micro bridge.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Basically, this interested me for his Tele handle unusual and I envisioned a bunch of upgrades. 2 weeks répéts and a concert later ... I am going to seek a second (more with a clearance, so for a lower price), history of Baja still retain more or less "stock".
    I've always loved the mouths of Telecasters, never found one that suited me so far. So much so, that I got a guitar one day, who looked (vaguely) a Butterscotch Blonde. In this case a Music Man Axis Sport (first model with pickguard). Since then I have had 5 other of the same model (and kept it from 2), a Music Man EVH, and makes a model maker on this basis. I had a lot of Strat (Fender, Schecter, Music Man Luke II, Blade), a PRS, of Gibson (Les Paul Standard, Gary Moore Signature - the real one, not the BFG) Bacchus, and often of old vintage loan quality (Gibson L Series Strat). But one day I declared that I do not ever buy a guitar over 1,500 euros (the price of my Music Man 10 years ago), saying they had a guitar pro at this rate without fear of do a scratch lowering its value. And there was amazing value for money (to wonder if the guys at Fender did not become crazy).

    In this case, the first concert my first Baja, my number one spent 90% of his gig on stand ... I really completely cracked on this guitar, its sound, its comfort, its mouth ... It did not become my number one, but in my main group, it is an essential part of his soul and even some songs whose riffs twanguy out of them.

    I know it is in the absolute face a vintage or custom shop, but for the price amazing, I'll put a note overall opinion I have put only once (for my number one, of course), ie 10/10. Whatever she feels rather than tapas Sake or hamburgers. It sounds like I wanted, the rest is conjecture. I did upgrade the pickups, but frankly, I could do without! Valeure a safe, it will remain as a reference.

    If you are looking for a Tele sounds noisy, grunge or whatnot, I'm not sure whether it is the best choice. If you are looking Telecaster that sounds like Telecasters specialists of this legendary scratch, then this is the best value for money that is unbeatable. This is the second time (only) that I stick a 10/10 to scratching. You hate it or you love literally. For me, it is seen!

    "Big" handle, I love playing with sleeves of this type.
    Positions 2x4 pickups
    An adjustable tone and volume.

    UTILIZATION

    Handle very nice, great shape reminds of the old school telecaster blues or Rock Creedence Clearwater Revival.
    Relatively easy access to acute, with a sound and accurate disticnt :)

    SOUNDS

    I use both in Blues Rock (Slide bottleneck)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it since the end of 2011, I tried the American Special Telecaster before buying that one, but I chose this one because it is more versatile.
    The Amercian special grows much more extreme level position in microphones (Serious too serious to my taste, too much treble treble)
    Excellent value for money! For 630 euros, you ride Fender with all the guarantees that come with it!
    I love everything about this guitar!

    Fender Telecaster (Mexican)

    Fender Classic Player Baja TelecasterPublished on 10/26/03 at 15:00
    I went to a local store to BUY the new 52
    re-issue tele. I've owned a few "Vintage"
    Strats and Telecasters, and I know how they
    sound and feel. Beter still, I know how they're
    NOT supposed to feel!

    Well, I played the 52 for a bit, and while waiting
    for the salesman to take it and put it back in a secure
    spot I set it into a stand that had previously been occupied
    by a $230 USED Mexican Tele.

    Hey, who could resist a head to head, side by side comparison???

    Not me!

    I gotta tell you, shock is a mild expression for my
    impression of that little sunburst beauty.

    The feel was excellent, and the sound was just what I expected a

    The feel was excellent, and the sound was just what I expected a

    The salesman wasn't the least bit surprised...








    Fit, finish, feel and sound... all excellent.


    Not a durn thing... Well, I'll be a bit ashamed
    at what I paid for it... $200 plus tax.

    Outstanding, as good as any Fender I've owned,
    and better than some.




    Don't hesitate a second to buy one if you're on
    a budget. Even if you're NOT on a budget,
    they make sense... that is unless you have a problem
    with NAFTA :-)

    Rates a 5!

    It's a Fender Mexican (up Submitted plutt has made me fly!) Is the classic SERIES player, whose finish is excellent: good rglage, coupling sleeve and perfect body , stick a pice covered with a beautiful and comfortable varnish, visible body made up of little pice (translucent lacquer of my vintage blonde can be seen).

    The microphone configuration which I have not really been around is as follows, two custom shop (it's not marketing, there are REALLY on the REFERENCE MODELS custom shop 2000 / Euro 3000 is an asset of the Baja):

    4-Position Blade Switch and 2-Position Push / Push S-1:
    S-1 Switch Up:
    Position 1. Bridge Pickup
    Position 2. Bridge and Neck Pickups (In Parallel)
    Position 3. Neck Pickup (Standard Tele)
    Position 4. Neck and Bridge Pickups (In Series) (Fatter Tone Than Position 2. And More Output Than Position 1., 2., Or 3.)
    S-1 Switch Down:
    Position 1. Bridge Pickup
    Position 2. Bridge and Neck Pickups (In Parallel)-Out of Phase
    Position 3. Neck Pickup (Standard Tele)
    Position 4. Neck and Bridge Pickups (In Series) Out of Phase

    Drout is a bit to end up with an electronic as flexible on a tele (8 sounds!). They are exploitable and e in the spirit Fender.

    The handle has a V-shaped shallow enough I find it perfect, as comfortable as on my Start Plus Deluxe.
    The bridge is one of the original rplique (50/60 's), I have a priori on the DJ because I had two American Series with the reliable bridge bridges indpendant 6. For now I have not noticed any default (it is perfectly rgl.

    Finally, mcaniques are vintage style, the same as for chavalet if I will make a move too small change Schaller / Fender, but for now I am surprised enjoyable.

    UTILIZATION

    Channel enjoyable trs, trs Fender I am, so no surprise that ct l. Access in acute is enough for me, I am more gimmick that riff and solo ...

    The guitar is trslgre, wood is certainly not dense trs is not a Les Paul any fawn, but all the same thundering. It is more than lgre American Series, I will not be tonn the economy will be made this ct l. At the same time, when you empty the cheek, it sounds really good dj.

    EDIT. NOTICE + 10 days: in fact it was a normal weight while, it seemed trslgre, more than my Start, but it is not so strong that eventually. APRS prcise observation, I see no assemblage of wood, not possible to know if there are 1.2 or 3 pices of wood. In any case the beautiful veining is regretting the absence of a sunburst finish on the MODEL.

    Ergonomics? Well, it's not a tele a stratum, then for small containers is less comfortable ...
    Do you get a good sound easy? Well, although we easily obtain a good sound package! It is the strength of this guitar, the sound palette is amazing, it's a real little muse Fender!

    SOUNDS

    The sounds are trs INTERESTED, there are two large families of sounds: sounds typical standard tele neck / center / ct an easel and the other sounds atypical Fender trs on a Tele, the type pais velvety lace sensor (clapton), sounds creuss the Mark Knopfler, sound and dry Troit the Robert Cray, and then finally sounds in the vein of my keith be "hard riff" trs east vintage Tele.

    Excellent crunch on my Fender Blues Junior, in comparison with the American Series pickups, it is suprieur, there are many teeth, a slap and crunch. Trs good output level, a pure delight. A vintage 30 2x12 JCM 2000, it is always perfect, though some positions seek trs channel 3 in distortion. In clear and sounds by pushing the reverb of the Fender with the arpges Mogwai is full, trs Dfine with a grain structure (many characters).

    Actually, I think they are the best pickups I've ever had on a Fender!

    EDIT. NOTICE + 15 days: the pickups are still patants! But I must return partiellemnt on what I said, APRS comparison, I note that the output gain is less than lev modern microphones. APRS INVESTIGATION, I confirem these microphones is to approach the conus t CHARACTERISTICS 52 Tele pickups. That's why they gain less strong than the standard US microphones, however, they have much more grain and nuances.

    This is the highlight of this guitar, it sounds to the Manir MODELS "ags", once the use of volume and tonal oprante trs, unlike modern productions (like my Start Plus) that sound "while the bottom."

    With the Blues Junior, I push the gain to half of the sound is clear overdrive with just the game of pots of Baja and the attack on mdiator. This is my guitar Premire of this type, and I must say it is beautiful!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for three months.

    What I like most: the look, the microphones, the trs lctronique soft touch on the price (585 euros in tho ...).

    What I like least: the made in mexico (ie psychological), the strings are original trs "standard".

    I had two American Series in the past (note: never sell a good guitar), I test the Koa that I find such a good trs trs diffrent, Highway 2 The Mexican standard is so-so, blah ...

    The ratio quality price is excellent.

    It perfectly complte set my guitar and my Blues Junior.

    NOTICE AFTER MORE THAN A MONTH

    Well, aprsrglage, change the bridge saddles for a 6 American Series, and change strings Ernie Ball 10/46, it is perfect. This is by far the best guitar I had (US Fender Start std, more deluxe, Fender Tele US std, mustang). It allows a lot of things with a good amp lamps, all done mdiator and pots, it's a real instrument.

    Ah yes, little rctification: 8 positions, but six sounds (and sacred sounds)

Detail ironic .. the guitars are well accompanied by a box stating, with date, name and signature, verifies that they have t ... a reassuring! In fact, I put zero as these "details" are unacceptable. Edit December 27, 07 ... maguitare is through skilled hands .. and it works. On the other hand my friend reu troisime his guitar (Thomann) and exchange again this time ... it works the well. I change my rating ..

    OVERALL OPINION

    As you can think of these guitars are new, so maybe it's a rare bad luck or a return to work Monday morning, some vapors tequilla, an auditor trainee, or secret service agents G. ... n who sabotage or terrorists, I do not know! So the question "what would you do decide" it is I who poseraisla question: Has anyone experienced this problem?? Until now I 've read that admiration ... I understand that in view of the instrument: looks very nice, beautiful varnish, handle great and the sound .. really the top given the price, but voila. . if we have three on hand just to keep it that has not at all any more fun for Fender that lets anything! Pub bad. Not rated .. December 27.'s True that it is in the hands of three passes before the "good" but still I would do this choice, with one reservation: see it in the flesh, in-store too bad for a few dollars (see on the internet!) but at least not to have surprises unpacking.

    SOUNDS

    I played on a Vox AC15, I was looking for a tlcaster slamming her with this I have two scratches, one for a more rock punk that goes to his "surf" and one for the blues lgre with OD.
    Trs trs trs I am trs trs ... happy.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for about 3 months, I also possde the gretsch and is the complment IDAL, what I like most is the push / pull that multiplies exponentially Fawn opportunities, I test three other tlcaster, which ignores the standard mex a lot, the highway too noisy one I like, and the lite ash me. This Baja is in one tlcaster vritablement 2, which involves a lot more versatility, ideal for all the keys, the black rock pixies or desire to the old blues.

    In short, I love it for its report qualitprix gnial.

    Well, I glue myself to myself. Now, I have to purchase in connection with a 2006 baja Anée colored sand. I've had for 10 years a Telecaster pickups equipped with standard US delta tone. I sold a year ago but I missed too much. Very intrigued by this model made in mexico Custom Shop with a priori an amazing potential, I decided to buy it.

    The owner prior to the instrument is set by a luthier. Nothing to say, the difference is perfect rope handle (When buying on the net is essential).
    No surprise at the grip: it was a typical telecaster neck, thicker than a Start and round.

    No surprise at the grip: it was a typical telecaster neck, thicker than a Start and round.

    A word on the pickups: it has 8 positions, but six sounds. Series, neck pickup, bridge pickup and parallel range. It supports diverse on the switch and you get a serial connection, but out of phase, and again the neck pickup out of phase parallel range and again the bridge pickup.
    I read that some users account for 8 sounds that is a mistake.
    One volume, one tone.

    I am impressed by the vintage look of the instrument, mechanical, easel, color too difficult to justify from cream and white, slightly yellowed. It's beautiful.

    Beautiful plaque custom shop.

    O defects - a perfect finish.

    UTILIZATION

    If you like the Telecaster one is conquered.

    SOUNDS

    Simply impressive:
    Series is huge for crunches and distos, great finesse and harmony, a good reserve of power. A full as they say, that fills the space well. The neck pickup alone is great for clean sounds, much less power than standard (I had no difference on my TV at US standard), but it does not bother me, the bridge pickup is typical of the character incisive and biting TV. The small addition, the switch has been pressed in series a perfect pout her casseroles and the rhythmic funk (very red hot). Backed by a wha wha, this extra phase is (finally a kind of filter that very nice, I guess in the minds of developers, wants to raprocher sounds of the first tele).
    So high-quality microphones mounted in line on TV much more expensive.

    qqs After months of use I confirm that all the good TV: Comfort, aesthetics, sound quality, a certain flexibility, keeping the agreement! All, all good! [/ B]

    OVERALL OPINION

    it seems unthinkable. For 500 euros occasion, new 600, it was a telecaster magical, with an exemplary finish, an instrument used for a lifetime.
    Only downside: it comes with a gig bag, so I sold the gig and I bought one for states Hardshell Case Black Magenta deluxe interior, so she is protected for many years.
    I made the mistake of selling my first telecaster, this one I keep.

    Guitar Meeting in Mexico, but designed by the Fender custom shop, so good
    The neck is C-profile but super nice, the combinations of microphones offer a wide range of possibilities

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is nice, even if it is not a highway as a round of SG, and contrary to what many say, the solos go well. the guitar is quite heavy compared to my SG Angus. At ergonomics, not bad,
    The sound is terrible, slamming and deep, a pure rock.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 6 months and I do not change it. Look fabulous, I did as a blonde. A Myth! The copy of the skyscraper to the Boss. I try a lot of range telecaster because I really wanted one. From the simplest to 500 euros for a 4000euros. What matters most in my choice is the comfort of the handle. At first I set on the American stadard deLuxe euros in 1500 and then the salesman told me to try it and then love at first sight, nothing to envy her sister was American, even a little more comfort. This confirms what I read, Fender, the price does not mean anything? The Classic Player BAJA 50 is one of the best business of the moment.

    the first time on my jl'ai ad100 heard sounded, I thought "how could I stay with my play as longtps strat standart ?!?", the sound is very versatile (6 distinct tones ... ) you can get a game very nuanced as mediator in the attack, playing with the knobs, distortion level, not as good c jl'aurais thought that rock, but by rehabilitating some settings, you come to rock it right well. For example, the harmonics ring on my bcp + Start.
    small defects in the sound ... apparently the microphone are easily infected with the public lighting from 21h ... jdois virtually abandon play: /

    SOUNDS

    Bah sounds ... I think there are more specialists than I do, I do not vmt vocabulary ... according to the positions, we will sound good crystal-clear sound with warm, colorful ... I rather use the switch contrary to what I read in some, especially with distortion. I use a Proco Turbo Rat, ca serious edge on the first position (the lower). On my ad100, it sounds differently on different models, I use bcp in AC30 mode or 2x12 black (these are the two I use +)

    OVERALL OPINION

    Jl'utilise for 4 days, I feel like I have always been, I was afraid to do foolish when jsuis emerged from the store with jl'ai but when connected home, I absolutely regret, the contrary, it motivates me to make further progress ...
    basically it's a killer for the price, c the vintage, the class ^ ^
    I had gone to buy a lite ash which is also a very good guitar, but for € 100 +, the seller advised me to try the same qd baja, it was love at first sight, I am the a qd mm good good windy this seller ... that's why I was afraid on and off with, but I think eyeGO to say thank you for being such scratches in the hands;)
    if you want a very very good telecaster affordable, go for it, it's this one unless you are in retissant vintage ... nothing to envy to a Hwon or lite ash (although not compared because lovin they are modern +) c of the good, you will find very few negative opinions on the scratch, there qques minor defects, such as the wicked are not vmt precise, not easy to give c ...

    For the shield I confirm that a real antenna c'tait store ... At home nothing. Any fawn, it's not hard to shield, there are plenty of tutorial on the net that shows how.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is enjoyable trs. I admit that it's tough but you get used to rev quickly. Caution is not a highway, it's a telecaster. Amateur Ibanez Jackson and other super fast ... go your way. I think the varnish trs enjoyable and roots (compared to the Lite Ash has a quick polish trs).

    SOUNDS

    It's a versatile guitar but trs size for rock and country (I got). I think the pickups are beacoup thinner than those of the Highway (which are those of the classic sries Mex). I love the bass that gives its beautiful clean sound. The acute lack a little bite, but a fix is ​​on the wrist I think.

    I think the switch makes a difference. It sounds like a strato ... In the beginners I had no intention at all of the useful but in fact it's really not bad!

    I play rock (Stones. ..) and pop (Arctic Monkeys ...). I use a Fender Champ XD any lamp. Simulation Fender Twin or AC-30 with little gain. I love this scratching.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I just bought it but I tried many over the place. I pay 600 euros. It's expensive 100 euros + 30 euros and in England more than in Germany. Yet I travel a lot but I am Fidler to local vendors, ESG has to buy me a guitar by mail order.

    This guitar is gniale.

    Before I tried:
    - The ash lite (very good sound "tele"). Trs enjoyable, but the coating of the handle is too "cort" I got. Look great. I have a lot hsit.
    - The standard Mex. Micros drafts (I Got)
    - The highway: slamming his trs, trs aige. At first glance trssduisant, but I think we get tired ... Varnish a little cardboard, such as Gibson faded. The guitarist plays with my group ... so I wanted no one has exactly the same sound. NB: For the rock is well trs.
    - The American Standard and 52 ': Well I just had not ben enough dosh or else ... I would say that the baja has not blush before the American Standard as I found with the Highway you can feel the diffrence because it is trs "type" rock.

    One downside: the shield is very thin and slightly warped cheap.Trop.
    I changed to a "real" black, it's better for my taste. (15 euros)

    UTILIZATION

    The V-neck is thicker than today's standards, but it very quickly and we eventually find it very pleasant and comfortable, especially since it is fully covered with a satin finish very nice, perfect for speed.
    Obviously, this is not a race for pyrotechnic stunts, it's a TV, eh ...
    The beautiful weight weighs somewhere that reassures ..
    And it sounds great already empty, every note is precise, well separated, with lots of shine and fishing.

    SOUNDS

    The first three positions are consistent with what one would expect from a good TV, it sounds slamming, funky, rock and Péchu wish.
    The fourth position (micro series) adds the fat necessary to tease a big fat overdrive without drooling and with nice mids.
    Switch was activated two sounds "stratabound" that add further to the versatility of the ensemble.
    The pots are very progressive and allow all the nuances.
    Sure, the beautiful has in reserve ..
    Frankly, all live in a lamp, it is a sacred cliente.On never tires of playing again and again ...
    I have not met with me to hum the prolem rédhibitoires.Ceci said they are single coils, to do with ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    In short, a great TV, that sounds really authentic, with some versatility and more .. so beautiful ..
    A new 700 euros, 600 into an opportunity, value for money is simply amazing.
    I also have a Lite Ash, who is also a good TV, with softer sounds.
    The Baja is above the level of microphones and sound, also Mex above standard, and rivals in my opinion without complex with high-end USD.
    But it is better to see, touch and try not to fall on the wrong number, even pay a few dollars more!
    I would buy another without hesitation, but as a blonde than done!

    Benisterie heavy guitar but of quality: in one pice frne for mine, blonde, leaving apparatre the grain of the wood, beautiful. Say anything is trssrieux. Make no criticism of the quality of all, for that price.
    Crunch sounds clear and beautiful especially in the neck position! Round and fleshy as I found on a Fender, ah what rgal scne of the chorus phrases "message in a bottle!" This guitar is sized for the Vintage Rock but can tweak on a more hard and always brilliantly beautiful DEFINITIONS. Bravo! I find the pickups silent, but I have a good set up of pedals (Boss, MXR) and Amp (Mesa)

    SOUNDS

    This guitar is perfectly suited my style of music Blues / Pop / Rock.
    She has kept his place between my PRS Custom 24 and my Musicman Luke.
    I play Mesa Single Rectifier (Tte 50W + 2x12 cabinet with V30) and Mesa Express 5:50

APRS while dpend the quality of the whole set-up that is used. I personally do not need any noise gate and not breathing!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it since July 2008 and j'apprcie his charisma, his sonoritslgendaires his ct Springsteen which suits me.
    I think I have an objective assessment, this is my 20 I sold my guitar and the US Strats that did not sound as it can.
    The report price is exceptional quality, it is certainly one of the best deals on the market!
    Even if I play the most prestigious MODELS, this guitar is indispensable in my set up. I do not regret having taken this essay and guitar, which ignores the sets ct its twin US's Custom Shop (3000 euros).
