«  a real Tele »

Published on 09/07/10 at 07:17
I will not repeat what was said!
go, so ... at least the important points:
Handle the big-C and its radius 9.5 ideal for "bender" (no pun.
- The medium jumbo frets, a compromise between accuracy and playability
- The body ash
- The custom shop pickups
- The switch S1
The brass-jumpers


UTILIZATION

nice handle, yeah, thick, but easy to handle.
the peeps is light + I would say ... Tele lighter than maple.

The sound ... is that of a Tele, a true one.
the seller said to me, because I had actually buy a Tele American (or a Highway1 american special): "You want the low-end American or upscale Mexican?" ... Enough said.

I wanted a companion to try my hand at country music: that's the one I took!

SOUNDS

sounds are fabulous ...
micro serious is terrible, not like some dull Tele. It's jazzy, and with a slight overdrive, Stevie Ray is not far.
the treble is what is asked ... and he does it very well! should not stay in front of the amp ...
the central position is nasal wish, well-typed. The push / push activated, it widens a little and it is a little closer to the second position of the Start '.
Fun for the funk ...
the fourth position is surprising ... volume is therefore more than the three other positions, more gain, the humbucker, but with this round and his nose typical! push-push started, I makes me think of "Need Your Love So Bad" from Fleetwoodmac ... a humbucker mounted upside down! very sharp, sharpness, and even nose!
frankly it's happiness, butter, not margarine ...

Knob the volume is usable only on the limit ... of 7 / 10 to 10/10 or so. it's great to manage the gain, the dynamics ...

the tone is very useful to calm the treble when they are too aggressive ... and they are!

The problem, here it is: I recorded a song with ... the guitar and do nothing happens! the smallest gap dynamics, we hear, we must stay focused if the volume of play yoyo ... short, it forces you to run your right hand and your "intent" (not paying attention, no, intention).

this is the song:

mean well for the musical interlude, two attacks in a heavier penalty be clear from the mix ... ahem ...
So the job in perspective ... and then, eventually, progress as a guitarist ;-)
Must be earned! not really a guitar for beginners ...

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it a week. it's not a lot? I play for about 20 years ... I got in pognes guitars ...

I love it, even if it is true that, unfortunately, parasites and other noise will be in the game.

I like the sound, the feel of the game, bounce the button, the strings (for the country is better) that does not detract fretted notes ... the incredible momentum, "not easy to manage early but I hope it will come. "
I understand the need for a compressor now!

I do not like the pickguard changed to a "tortoise" (see photo) the next day!
gondolas that hard! shame ...

in short, a real Tele, sounds clear and beautiful intense crunches ...
