it's a telecaster so we like it or not. Personally I love this type of handle.

Seen other reviews that say the sound of the microphones is not top. Well, I'm not too agree. Already on to see what our friends plug their guitars. If it's on a roland cube or transistors thing they can do what they want it never ring.

the telecaster I have had in a classic vibe which I regretted. Except that Japanese and Korean Squiers. The latter to 320 € I did not hesitate even as the state was good and it was dated 2007, therefore, already a little bottle. Only big flaw the bridges of the bridge that are really crap. Replaced with brass saddles.See less44 - MGR/Aaron
Fender 50's Telecaster
Published on 01/04/03 at 15:00I recently purchased this guitar at a local music store it was origionaly priced at 649 but I talked them down to 540.
The thing i like most about this guitar (and everyone should like most about the guitar they buy) is the tone I get. I have a Stratocaster and the tone from the Telecaster is entirely different. You can play any chords and they will sound excelent not like on strats ware it can sound a little to cluttered, if that makes sense. I also like the vintage styling of the guitar, and the action on it is fast. And thats the way I like it.
This is just what I like about the instrument but I own it so im probly parcial to it.

The only thing I don't like about the guitar is that the sadles on the bridge don't have groves for the strings to sit in. Thus making bends harder then usual. And playing on .12s I need all the help i can get if you know what i mean.
Im not sure how to answer this. its a fender from mexico so the production process isn't that bad, nothing like an americian tho. No visible flaws or anything.
This guitar is an amazing thing to play. You hardly have to play it seems to almost play itself. It fits me like a dream and looks good too. It gives that clasic muddy waters or merle haggard tone.

UTILIZATION
The handle is very nice, large flat, very easy to wander nothing n'accorche the 18th to the first box. The access to the latest boxes is harder because the handle screw fixation gene hand (it's a TV in any case not a shredder guitar ...) or to 9 / 10
SOUNDS
For pop, vintage rock blues is great and a fender amp it sounds a hell or 10/10 (on a marshall bof but I do not like the sound marshall matter of taste)
A round very bright and clear with the bridge pickup. The neck pickup gives a warm / smooth (roico what) medium / bass blues perfect for my taste and for solos like David Gilmour. The sustain is very good at his clear, beautiful arpeggios and all the strings ring. there is not much bass on this guitar.
If we're talking, of course saturation is limited because the microphones are simple. Chuck Berry sound up or Gilmour Police perfect sound Satriani or Metallica forget (or buy a pedal?)
OVERALL OPINION
I play the guitar for almost 15 years, this is my second guitar. I also have a Rickenbacker. I bought this guitar because it is very complementary of Ricken (have you ever tried a bend on a Ricken ... hello string tension). I use it for solos and arpeggios for sounds brilliant (like police) or low-saturated medium and hot (such Pink Floyd). If I had to buy it back, I'll do it with eyes closed .. and then it's so much more beautiful and less banal than a Start (matter of taste but life is nothing else ...)See less30 - MazesmoodPublished on 03/04/06 at 07:48 (This content has been automatically translated from French)So as he said prcdemment t I will not repeat myself too much, except that I changed the pickups, I put up two humbuckers in simple format

For me, one must be telecaster ash handle with Mapple. It's silly, but I love that sound twangy and very sharp medium.
Models alder and ebony or rosewood are a bit too muffled for me.
All that to say that it is difficult to find € 750 for a violin corect ash.
With a change of pickups (+ bridges in brass) you get a very good instrument that does not blush with the highway and see the same concurencer standard inquiry us ...

Micros original trs blah is what I had failed to tip the ct of Highway plutt: they taient trs draft ds the saturation point the tip of his nose, and the output level of silent way too low.
UTILIZATION
Channel C. Guitar heavier than my old Squier Start, but less than my Les Paul. Access in acute pain is more than the ais Les Paul, but it's not my style, I will not cheese.
So I say great for my neck, because it does a Matre RULES (!): Radius corrected string around the right height, and I swear it's become a highway overnight. No, not an Ibanez guitar shredder or other well-sr, but I do want to hear "you have to tame the handle of a Tele is a long time".
I upgrade with 2 Seymour Duncan STL-2 and STR-2: micro-trs mind Tele twang, but with a large output level, a balance and not too sharp turns to the screaming like the original pickups. I am one of those who find the output level too low gnralement on a Tele.
I use my broad Tele: blues improvisation cushy, a little Clapton, Hendrix, and until the M-to-distortion pedals with a lamp (Blackstar HT Dual).
SOUNDS
As I've dj said, I am mostly player Les Paul (Slash).
But I could not do without my TV on the dserte ... The STR-2 micro SD is a marvel for a few rhythmic blues, and then you go on APRS improvisation on the bridge pickup STL-2 ... I just wanted to test the microphones and NLT-1 TRPA-1 SD from home also, for ct fuller and Alnico, but I feared their average output level too ... and to play more "round", I dj my Les Paul.
I play on a Marshall amp DFx transistor 50, which will be replaced by an ending for Blackstar HT-5 lamp (phew!). I actually test it with my Tele rcemment, and sound, even if it is not typical Fender, will remain a good compromise between my LP and this Tele (but we don ' is not to make the review of the Blackstar HT-5!).
In short, to the sound, see what I say dj on micro SD. Only problem: this requires a change in scratching microphone. But the good side of the mdaille is to say that it is worth it, our answer Submitted violin making.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 6 months. Report qualitprix reasonable, but it is changing the pickups, it seems inevitable I got (was only my opinion).
I do it again this choice without hsiter ... APRS be compared with a Highway One this time, or at least an equivalent team of violin Tele pickups Texas.See less20 - fredcaster

That says a great big stick can help sustain more important when you shake well. The weight of this channel but not good , need to exercise to beef up the back ... The access to treble is "normal" but you can do with (go and see the boss springsteen which reproduces video the song "She's the One" with solo funny)
SOUNDS
Then the sound: it's true that good microphones origin are somewhat arbitrary, so I quickly changed for texas special and it's nicer, less aggressive in keeping the color of the Telecaster, which I wanted. I did not change the mechanisms that are not bad but not perfect, nor the knobs and it should not delay. It must be said that nowadays, the guitars of this price (550 € it is 3600 bales) manufacturers are all subject to problems of "capitalism" basic: not too expensive but not too perfect. So the violin is not too bad (it's not 40 years of wood drying either, in those ranges it's still kind of autoclave garden (a little while baking and drying for 1 month if it was By the time ...). cons they catch on pretty crappy electronics in general. I saw it on 2 other free "low end" that I purchased: the Flying V reissue epiphone guitar 67 = from 360 € rigolotte but I changed the pickups to seymour duncan 2 and knobs are still changing and it sounds better already. Ditto ibanez AFS75T (half body with bigsby) for the moment but I have not changed any electronics is to discard (without micro "body" knobs for the deco ...) In conclusion I have neither the means nor the desire to buy guitars over 700 € so I take these small models ( for the look and sound especially) but I always end up changing the pickups and knobs and cables (see cables shit when you open the plates, I would not in my house is so cheap. anyway we will ever have the quality of a vintage these prices
OVERALL OPINION
Another thing: the paint and that's where we can have fun. I had white blond because I already form a sunburst Stratocaster (the 2 colors proposed for these Mexican classic. And I wanted wood color I appeal to the varnish ... it's not vintage at all these varnishes : from the wood was first a layer of silicone or Teflon but I know it's been almost 1 mm thick and it should not make the sound. Then the final nail color, very fine. So while I napped. Here's how for those who do not like these varnishes (note the neck has a lacquer "classic" that I have not touched). So I started everything off the plate pickups, bridge, knobs of the plate. I have not touched the handle (so much for the layer remaining between the handle and the table). I started back with a hairdryer and a small chisel (take a spatula or thin), not to cut, just to take off. Heat gently about 10 cm and then with a chisel without attacking the wood, raise the silicone coating of shit that comes off easily if broadband was well heated whole area. As soon as it resists, you must warm up. and that's LOTS more beautiful now. reassembling the bridge and setting the top rope has since turned almost 1 mm. and after the final walk on the forums violin, I applied to cloth or wax Carnoba Karnoba I know. It Boooo.
