Made in China Yu CHERN
Easel type Fender "Vintage", 3 bridges.
Beautiful maple neck with 22 frets maple key also.
2 single coil pickups, the neck pickup is easily adjustable in height.
Trimmings for a classic telecaster, 1 volume, 1 tone, 3-position selector.

UTILIZATION

Channel satin with a touch flat. Personally I love my wife too.
The ergonomics of this guitar is really good. Balance is really well done, both in game sitting and standing.
guitar weighs 4 kg with an alder body.
Access to the treble is fairly good, as on all telecaster ...
Sound quality also depends on the guitarist's ears. For my part, I wound the neck pickup slightly to have a little more dynamic. Overall the sound of the pickups for me for my game ..

SOUNDS

Being a "grandpa" of the guitar I easily found the sound telecaster that has rocked my 20 years ....
Its clear blues and jazz with the neck pickup with the side a bit due to the slamming maple fingerboard. This is exactly what I was looking into buying this guitar.
The bridge pickup is "dry" like a good Riesling, characteristic of the telecaster in general ...
The guitar is amplified with a good old Laney LineBacker 50 REVERB, Celestion 10 ".
Even the crunchy sound on this guitar are nice, the overdrive is not wrong with my amp. After it is a matter of personal taste ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar for a short week. Sure, it's just to have a definitive opinion really. For now this guitar gives me satisfaction and I reckon that the quality of workmanship is superior to my late Fender Stratocaster 1974 ... In addition to the time that Fender had cost me a monster that money is not the case with this guitar.

After trying a few more expensive guitar, I was not ashamed of my Jack & Danny. I just changed strings of DR Pure Blues 9-46.
the only criticism that will be for the 1-ply pickguard that is easily scratched. It will be changed for a 3-fold better.

After reading some reviews on this guitar I must say that the body is not an assemblage of 7 or 8 "sticks" but an alder body made of 3 parts.
More strings are through giving a very nice and long sustain for a guitar that was historically known for having a poor sustain.
I would do this choice without a doubt. Following is a budget issue. But for less than 100 € I have a very good guitar. This was not the case in the 1970s, when the entry-level guitars were real m ...
If I had had this tool 30 years ago I'll have wept with joy.
