All user reviews for the Fender Telecaster (1952)

US Redissi Fender 52 ', all the characteristics of a vintage: 21 frets, vintage mechanical, two microphones 52 us single, bridge has three brass saddles, handle all Saddle a V-shaped (top of the handle) and then by that in C. 3 position selector, 1 volume, 1 Tone.

UTILIZATION

The V should get used to it but at least you really want something in hand and that's reassuring.
Access in boxes last ais. Guitar is a fairly balance is much better than a les paul but this is not a Start (I speak good ergonomics)
the number of adjustment is limited, but more than enough, what we demand is to have a tl52 sound non tl 52? and well it has!

SOUNDS

It is a size guitar for rhythmic bleeding, any riff takes on its full potential!
I play with a marshall vs265, and even though it has the ring! I think to buy a small lamp, it's worth it!
we can also play the more jazz (neck pickup / less tonal and it's great too ... with a bit of a chip crunch!

OVERALL OPINION

2 days that I have the handle possible (and yes I had the body waiting quietly) and ben is great, a unique sound, typ CLEVERLY and passes well in a mix!
A MUST HAVE!

The word has already been passed down: a legend!

UTILIZATION

Channel super easy to play as on most Fender.
Ideal form for my taste. Mechanical reliability that take the agreement.

SOUNDS

The sound is sublime as in pickup neck pickup. The fact that no combination of neck pickup and bridge is a good thing because I hate the sound of mic positions through.
On this guitar lacks nothing and nothing is too much ... We have not done better since.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years.
When I discovered I knew it was "Ze" ... Above all guitar than I would look over the other.
I used a Gibson SG standard, a strat US, which étaitent both excellent, but I never had that much fun playing on the TV 52.

All adj t say

UTILIZATION

The neck is quite thick and not very slippery. The guitar is trslgre.

SOUNDS

Adj is a great sound when the guitar is "unplugged".
It was the sound "twang" with no problem and that the instrument possder to play rock / blues and especially if you like the Rolling Stones.
The sounds are phnomnales forcment trs and "vintage".

OVERALL OPINION

The report qualitprix is ​​better now than some years ago. I suggest you buy it on a German website (Thommann or otherwise) because in France the price is too lev.
It's a good guitar but the only problem is the handle that tired quickly because too small for my hands pais )

Telecaster made in 1952 as the smallest detail. This is not the imitation of 1952 but actually manufacturing the same including the nitrocellulose lacquer finish.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to play.
Selector gives her a choice of bridge pickup and neck pickup and neck pickup but the bass. What is characteristic in this model.

SOUNDS

A marvel. A home in the rock / psyche, blues ...
We find the magic of stones, among other big time.
I never heard a telecaster that sounded better than this.
In addition, the model 52 reissue United States really has nothing to do with sound quality at the pale copies made in Japan among others.

OVERALL OPINION

This is the best guitar I had that choice and I would do without hesitation. It is also an instrument that I sell it for anything. This is the kind of scrapes that are kept for life and for good reason.

The Tele 52 is what is more simple in the electric guitar ... even if Esquire is even simpler:
- A body with 2 pickups (it's almost too much, no?)
- Without a joystick button reported
- 21 frets
- A 3-bridge jumpers
- A switch and 2 knobs

Everything is basic, bolt-on neck was thought to create efficient and above all extremely simple. The guitar should be easy to fix, easy to build. The Tele 52 is therefore a plank, simply.
Every note is conceivable in this sense: the 3 as 10. It all depends on personal taste.
I am very sensitive to this simplicity so effective. It's a guitar plug and play as the English say. I love this dirty side, especially if the selected elements, as on this 52 are of quality.
The bridge takes the road, Mecas are good and keep the agreement, the microphones and electric do their job.


UTILIZATION

The handle is good for me .... It may offend some, because of its shape and its consequent sticky varnish. This inconvenience disappears after a few hours.
Ergonomics is correct, it's a Tele again, I invite you to reread the first paragraph. Nothing embarrassing in body shape or even access to treble.
Subjectively, I love this shape, the handle, but objectively, this can interfere with the love of comfort.
The guitar is light in the 3 kilos sth, which is very pleasant.

The finishes are best ur my role model, but I've seen that had nasty problems connecting sleeve. So beware.

SOUNDS

When empty, this sounds fully Tele 52, she's alive, brilliant but still surprisingly warm, despite the species of wood used: Ash body, maple for the whole race.
Leave the wood used in confidence, the body is usually in 2 parts. The veining is also pleasing to the eye. If we can combine sound and aesthetic pleasure is the holy grail.

So warm, but the sustain is correct and no more. It is at this level in the middle range, surpassing still handily many guitars more or less expensive it.
I also think that what sustain good enough is directly related to the construction of the guitar, the selected species, etc.: it's a Tele, not a SG.

Sustain correct, but his power in the dynamic and very impressive.
Each note sounds again to empty fully, including bends, and even in very sharp treble.
Once connected, the original pickups highlight the beautiful: in the easel perfect twang, slamming, singular, sharp (but with sufficient dose of this safe, serious, which avoids rendering discomfort) in the neck position and a its pretty round, dynamic, easily flattered by his ear sweet ... it seems we taste a vanilla cream.
The intermediate is very nice, with this dominance in the high frequency medium.
Note that all of the guitar looks seriously at high frequencies ...

Fully performed, this Tele is a dream, even if more sustain would have been even better! We can not have it all at once ...


OVERALL OPINION

Played last few months, this guitar is fun ... but expensive. Probably too expensive in the end: in this sense, the value seems to me pretty bad, even if this guitar will make its owner very happy fan of Tele. This guitar is a Tele, so it must be taken like that, with all that that means it's a guitar made for twanguer.
Compared with Standard U.S., the 52 is typed, the handle is a wonder: she surpasses me in that MUST be a Tele ... namely a crude instrument.
The guitar itself deserves the absolute best score, even if only for its effectiveness and genius of this move, but its price of around 1700 euros in my opinion is abused, precisely because of the fact that Tele guitar should remain an economic (price you pay for 2 sticks)
