All user reviews for the Squier Affinity Telecaster [1998-2020]

Nothing to say, it's a good shovel. So either I came across an exception, or they were able to offer a very good violin at a very reasonable price. I got it by exchanging it against a violin with a friend who wanted to get started.
The violin is robust, just enough precision and it is already very important! However, I did change three things: a 3-ply pickguard that I found prettier, mechanical (Arf!) And a metal jack plate. Recently I changed the pickups.

UTILIZATION

This guitar has a great handle and what it takes to attract aficionados Telecaster. There is also this strange peculiarity specific to Tele: in "crunch" mode on the amp (tube, Blues Deluxe) when you lower your volume, the sound does not change: you just have the same crunch, weaker . This is especially obvious with the bridge pickup.

SOUNDS

The twang is discreet, and you'd better be very familiar with your amp, because the sound can quickly turn into a "phony" if you use it on an amp that you do not know. To remedy this, I removed the original pickups and Chinese is installed Hot Classics TRT2 made in the USA and there it is much better! Cheaper than DiMarzio or Duncan, but they work very well. My favorite seller malignant (Epernay) made me a true marvel for cheap!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it every day, it's my guitar work. I also took him to jam from time to time, and it is what I choose when frankly have to play rock'n'roll.

reported maple keys, I would have preferred the great sleeves VM or CV. I intend to change. Otherwise nice.
The rest: why buying this guitar?
I was not looking tele or other guitars, but with a friend all cheap guitars we tried. There were 5 or 7 squier affinity and sounds were compared to empty, and I came across this one that sounded great vacuum. So I try a live Southwestern Tele still connected to see the difference, and in fact the sound was great. I bought it!
I knew that the electronics (pickups + wiring) is pure crap, I have not even tried on an amp.
After trying many Chinese and Indonesian squier, I am convinced that lag does not select the wood, and can be dropped onto a skyscraper in 7 songs that sound or rotten one or two songs that sound top, knowing that there is alder. I have two VM and CV are alder top. Affinity but overall it is the. The painting is very bad, any poc even light, she jumps. In fact I bought the body, the rest to change!

UTILIZATION

if we know the choice you can get a good guitar, but the pickups are rotten. It is better to take a hundred euros more a vintage modified, they have very good microphones, I compared to seymour duncan, Di Marzio, gibson (mics that I have on my guitars), and it the fact. The problem is that VMs are few alder (I have only scratch alder, ash, mahogany, still yuck). The handle is playable but compared to a VM or CV is not terrible. There was no difference between the affinity series and vintage modified the classic vibe series (in strat) and a standard american strat is to say whether the affinity are rotten throughout.

SOUNDS

empty, all the ones I've tried, this is the only one that was his level, connected = rotten, sounds, this is rubbish, while between my and my gibson vintaged modified or my species, it there is not a gap (wiring Indonesian and Chinese is by no cons on all series, but the microphones vm series and HP are good).
There was awesome in lag for guitars in alder is that you can come across excellent body (as good as us), so try but do not buy vpc as wholesale there has an occasional ringing, vm and CVs are more regular but try anyway, there are the normal and exceptional sounding (for alder, and pine on Tele cv for guitars in Agatis basswood and I do not know, I do not like these woods = neutral)

OVERALL OPINION

I think if we do not know recognize the sound of an empty skyscraper and that no flashes above, better save to buy a Classic vibe out where wiring can keep everything, because ultimately for the body I found excellent sound, microphones change (I did put sp custom, leaves changing pickups as to the top), the handle to change (not yet, I want a CV or any vm maple, but not found) and painting again (my lovely wife will take care of), it is expensive, it will return me 600 € / 700 € to the output (it is clear that explode standard Mexican) !!! Basically the best range lag for me (thus subjective) the classic vibe, VMs have the same level except that there is almost no natural wood (alder, alas only jazzmaster special, and I have two, they are great with minor mods, but micro SD origins), I do not know the modern player, Mexican I is not terrible compared to CV (handle as beams, sleeves VM and CV are awesome), roughly between the CV and the Tele RI52, for me it is useless, say it must spread price between 180 € and 1850 €, but in my opinion, between € 300/400 for a lag below sucks, and a fender, over € 1800/2000, below it sucks and you should find several opinions from different people who say that between a TV and a CV is the RI52 'scam. But especially avoid affinity. Squier Tele therefore the classic vibes are tops, vm are all good .... except the body is wooden crate, and if you want a fender, especially avoid the stuff below the RI52 between the two , well it's not great (I exclude the modern player I do not know, I speak only guitars I tested, so you can have Mexican great, I did not fall over, simply) , and affinity, it's worth nothing. I will not repeat that choice for the vacuum which I flashed for the out, with custom sp a valid handle and the painting I have to redo the bridge and also to change, it will take me 600 / 700 €!!! Because I have a Tele that I love but totally inrevendable (it corresponds to the squier japan sq I sold off and are now too expensive and rare Bazaars hypermarkets). So I think it is worth buying good Chinese / Indonesian or good us, not the bottom lines of Asian or low ranges of us that are identical to Mexico if you hide the "mase in usa". So my opinion on the affinity strat and Tele series is: guitar rotten, save € 100 and get a vintage modified.
The only positive thing is that the body thinner than a normal Tele is nice. My technique when I try the guitars in stores, I do not watch the handle to not be influenced by the squier / fender and made in, so I did that sound and feel real.

• Made in Indonesia (it was either that or China ...)
• Solid alder
• Maple neck
• Maple fingerboard
• 21 frets
• 2 single-coil pickups
• 3-position selector

Basically it's a Telecaster. One difference: the strings are not traversing.

UTILIZATION

I needed a small guitar to make rehearsals without fear of damaging it and then I always wanted a Telecaster. A ride on the classifieds and hop a Telecaster for cheap.

Well, obviously I'm not expecting a great guitar. But nay!

The neck is thin, soft, frets are good, the guitar is not too heavy but it does not cardboard guitar ... far from it.

Mechanical hold well, you can get a fairly low action without frisouille. It is rustic, solid, well made.

However the varnish is a bit shaky but nothing catastophique either.

A small fault anyway, the base plate of jack is plastic and plastic ... it breaks above the place where it is on a Tele ... but for 5 € at my luthier or 2 € on Thotho with a metal plate that can overcome that little problem.

SOUNDS

I play lots of different styles (variety, rock, metal ...) and the guitar fits very well. Obviously for my Gibson SG metal is much better for funk and nothing beats a good Strato.

But otherwise it is perfect! a true Tele! and has the twang
and sustain despite the fact that the strings are not therethrough.

I play on tube amps (Mesa, Vox AC15, Blackstar HT1-R) and it sounds great. However, there should be to raise the neck pickup is a little low origin. But nothing could be easier. It dismantles the pickguard and placed a piece of cardboard under the micro and presto!

After that, if we had to do something I will change the pickups (like Nocaster or texas special), but for now they fit me very well, they do the job!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for nearly 6 months and I take a lot of fun to play with! this is a really good price / quality (especially Cygnus). She did not blush at all next to my Gibson SG (an admittedly faded ... but still) and my Fender strat mex. On a tube amp it sounds great.

If necessary I do it again this choice without hesitation.

After it's true that I save to make me a little Baja ....

see technical details on the net.
mine is red

UTILIZATION

very nice guitar and well done!!
light, easy access to acute as can be a Telecaster!

this is my guitar training / trip!!

she really has a comfortable game

SOUNDS

then all is well on this guitar ... but the pickups are blah, certainly it's on PSN but I find nothing more.

I will not give technical details in the description of the sound, it is proper to each.

at the same time considering the price if we had more sound crazy ... there remain no other.

short, it deserves better and I think finding a set occas telecaster on the net.

OVERALL OPINION

then 185 € I have a new guitar, easy, like that the agreement .. but with using microphones.
for the look I put a perloid plate and it does great.

by against the paint is fragile!!

I am delighted with this purchase in its entirety and again without any worries.

See technical details on the net.

UTILIZATION

The handle is it nice?
- Oh yes!
Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?
- Of course!
Gets it easy to sound good?
- I'll come back later.

SOUNDS

With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
- MesaBoogie Express 5:50, BlackStar One 50 VoxToneLab EX (the headphone) for the apartment
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
- This is the nerve. Microphones and the original wiring inadequate. I kept this guitar original time of my debut. Microphones becoming a little low for my style of music (Hard Rock / Metal), I changed by Seymour Duncan. I took the opportunity to have it repainted (a beautiful Sunburst by my dad), shielding conductive paint cavities, change the knobs and wiring for the best quality. End result: you end up with a guitar that sounds better than a Mexican Fender. (I can not compare with USA because I've never tested). Cost of operations: 150 micros, 15 euros knobs, wiring recovery and delivery painting offered by my father.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
- Approximately 5 years
What is the particular feature you like best and least?
- Guitar inexpensive and worked well, which is a good basis for a custom.
How would you rate the quality / price?
- Excellent for this price range.
With experience, you do again this choice?
- Without hesitate, yes.

Japanese model, two singles, maple neck, ribs our Clint Eastwood us!
Black body, rather class, we would not far difference with the original.

UTILIZATION

The handle fits nicely in the hand and contact with bare wood is not unpleasant.
Despite the anti-ergonomic shape, the guitar is comfortable and very well balanced overall.
The hardware is when his needy ... Ballast bridges are badly out of tune regularly and damn guitar, jumped from his high E saddle retention at the lower bend pressed, the shell jack unscrews all the time ... Obviously, for to cheap, it was not much at the time ...

SOUNDS

Fortunately, once connected the sound is very convaicant with a special mention for the bridge pickup, aggressive desire, enjoyable with a good distortion!
We could blame the lack of sustain (means wood, fittings and not at the top polish too thick?), But the twang is there and every note is well defined.
A little worse for the neck pickup drooling and loses definition with distortion ...

OVERALL OPINION

A good guitar cheap, unfortunately a little light equipment level, making it less reliable and less sexy to use, just as if you went out with a gun, but with nothing in the head ... It eventually grew tired ...

The price was 180 US dollars , which is reasonable since it's issued by Fender . In terms of quality , you do get more than what you payed .

Well , the first thing that strikes you when you turn on the amp is the similarity on the sound. You can hear that Fender-quality ring when you first start playing. In terms of quality, this is a mean-old brick that doesn't like to be broken. I've dropped it on wooden floors, smashed it on tables, and all that is left is a few paint chips here and there ...

The guitar does look slightly cheap. The pots and the pickup selector looks like something from a scrapyard, but it works well, and that's what counts.
I not a particular fan of the tuners either. If you bend the top strings for the high notes, the strings seem to loosen itself, which is bad news if you're in the middle of your gig.

Hard and solid. That's all I can say.

Brilliant guitar. Who said it's for beginners? It's cheap, but it's not a piece of junk. To me, it's a respectful imitation of Fender where it deserves more credit than it currently has.
If you're looking for a Telecaster, this is the closest to the real thing.
Although it's only less than 200 bucks, atleast it's got the 'Fender' name on the headstock...

I bought this guitar at rock steady music in England for £100 reduced from £150 that is about $180 from $250.

great price, its a good starter guitar but i have started to grow out of it now. the pickups give out a relatively good sound for two single coils occasionally tinny sound but an alright price.

After about two weeks of playing, the guitars bridge pickup broke. i took this to the shop aand they were going to charge me about $30 for a new pickup. i went home and unscrewed it and all there was was a loose wire. After this the input broke due to a very flimsy screw.
I have a Marshall MG 10 practice amp obviously not very loud, and even if you put this on the brigde pickup and use distortion over half way, the amp will screech. i wasnt very pleased with this.

the construction in my opinion is poor. the screw and the wire as well as minor drops that can take large chunks out of it.

i think that this is a good starter guitar but it would NO WAY suite an intermediate guitarist. there is not enough variety for what you can do with this guitar and it takes a good amp head to turn out a good tone.

It was sitting on a rack at the local music store, I already have an old 78 USA Tele and was curious to hear what this was like. It was bought at Trevor Davis music in Leominster England for £149. I just started playing it and it sounded really good so I bought it!

It is a nicelightweight guitar with great sound, it is also nicely made and finished, it is ideal for songwriting with and just for playing, the action is also superb, making it an ideal first or learners guitar, the price is also good allowing a learner to get a good quality guitar if they are on a budget.

doesn't have strings through body like on my old Tele but that could be rectified with a retro fitted bridge. Some hardware might be worth upgrading if you so desire but the standard equipment is good enough.

In a word superb, it is a guitar that is probaly underestimated because of it's budget price tag.

I have refinished and repaired many big name guitars over the last 20 years as a hobby, with this knowledge, I think this is superb.

I wish when I started playing electric guitars that I had been able to get my hands on this one. I am astounded by the build quality and the playability in this superb guitar. It is just another example of the great guitars now coming out of Asia. I love this guitar!

Purchased online from MusiciansFriend.com for my birthday. Paid $170

Just about everything. This is a special model that was created for the 2003 Summer season so it has the butterscotch finish with a black pickguard. The neck is maple and so is the fretboard(nice and fast). It comes with basic tuners that are nothing to write home about.

The only issues I've discovered so far are a tendency for a string to buzz every now and then, but that buzzing does not carry over to the amp. The tune of the guitar goes bad if I use my capo between the frets, but that is because I have a high tension capo. I've discovered if I clap almost directly on the fret, I can avoid going out of tune.

The construction is rather solid for it being a bottom-of-the-line guitar. It is not as heavy as a standard tele, but I find it heavy enough. It has a good feel.

This is an excellent guitar for the money. Great for beginners or those with limited funds. You really don't sacrifice sound for this great deal!

I purchased my Telecaster at Link's Music Store in Hanau, Germany. I got a great deal on it. I paid 178 Euros, which with the exchange rate made it $211.00. But he also accepts a VAT form. So it ended up being about $180.00. I bought it because I always wanted a Telecaster. I am just a hobby player and don't really feel like you need a $1000.00+ guitar to have fun and sound good. Fenders are Great! But if your a hobby player like myself you may want to stick to the Squier models. They are also great guitars.

It looks GREAT! And sounds incredible. I play mine through a Squire Amp I got with a Strat Pack. It was already set up and ready to play when I got it. Intonation, String height, and even tuned. I love it. I got it in Blonde. A traditional Telecaster color. It is definitely a keeper.

If I have to pick something I don't like I would have to say the Pickguard. It looks like it is a three piece. But you have to look very hard to see it.

As with my Squier Strat the construction and quality of my Squier Telecaster is incredible for any price range. I have owned and played guitars that cost over $700.00 and I think I like the way my Squiers play better than them all. Expensive guitars have their place. They are for musicians who make a living with their instruments. If you are looking to make a career with your music save up and buy an original. But if your best audience is yourself and your friends and family, you can't go wrong with a Squier.

The bottom line is whether you are just starting or have been playing for years a Squier is a great place to find your love for music. At such a great price I plan to expand my collection of Squiers with a Fat Strat or a Showmaster.

I bought for about $160 at a music shop, It was the new release of Squier which has affordable cost for each player with less budget for new guitar branded Fender, included me of course.. what a poor player I am..

The price was so fair on me.. and make me wanna try it out, I was thinking a new brand of Fender tele with low price kicks me out... rock on! no... blues on!! no... Tele on!!!


ya ya.. poor body I said when it hasn`t "back hole" for the strings, it built "really really" a solid body so the strings pass trough the tremolo bridge, not the body.. as the matter of fact, the Squier Tele (not the affinity) has the back hole.. ah it doesn`t look like Fender tele anymore.. (yeah it just a hole)
The pickup installed on these unit is so far so fair.. of course for reducing the cost products, it has less bright on neck even the tone knob were boosted, and less 'twang' from original tele I`ve expected, I always boost the presence from my headamp to get close the original tele sound, but the accuracy was distorted haha.. poor my babies..

Hmm.. let`s see the contruction, nice alder body with one-piece maple neck and fretboard, seems like Fender standard telecaster, crafted in china for lower cost product not the quality, it`s body is not too much different with Fender tele, I bet one step lower only than the body that Fender used, cause they always use poplar/ash/premium alder not like these affinity series.
Affinity has a fair tele sound at that prices, quite warm tone on the neck and not bad tele oriented on the bridge, My fave is when the switch positioned in the middle... less `twang` with more clarity and brightness (at that prices of course!) not bad...

I acquired this guitar in in 1998 form Acadamy of sound in Stock-on-Trent.I paid £115 for my tele and glad i did.I brought the guitar because it looks good and i can't afford the real thing.

I like the guitar because of the sound, Its looks and feel.The guitar is butterscotch in color and cad customised with a fender sticker.I play my guitar through a princeton 112 plus and it sounds grate.You can play Hevy metal,rock,punk and country on it and it suits all styles.

Afer about four years the nut and saddles can start to where but if you dont do much blues bends you shoud not have a problem.

The construction fo the guitar is exelant for its price and would have another anyday.

The Squier telecaster is a good guitar for anyone at any standerd if your just starting to play or if your as good as Hendrix.This is a "guitarists guitar".

form is a telecaster bah what we're going to criticize it's still a type of guitar legend.
the guitar is fairly light.
in terms of access to acute I'm not complaining, however I do not go often often ^ ^

SOUNDS

it is a very versatile guitar. not as a strato but you can already play with such an instrument. I use a vox AD15VT and guitar rig 3 and AmpliTube. the output levels of the guitar is balèze!

OVERALL OPINION

I do not regret my purchase.
the only small thing I did not like it the original color of the pickguard, white. I therefore replaced by a black 3 ply: p and there is sublime

affinity telecaster left
made in China, fixed bridge
c maple neck very soft and fine
21 frets 2 single coil pickups, 3 position switch, volume, tone

UTILIZATION

handle very pleasant, fine, very soft touch "open pore" access to acute very good I put 9 without problem, too bad there are only 21 boxes
its level is really found the sound very "right" with the neck pickup, and a great sound nervous and biting bridge pickup

SOUNDS

as I said above, the sound is really good, only downside of the neck pickup has an output level a bit low, especially when moving the microphone then acute, but hey, it's still acceptable, I glue a 8.5, this guitar has a very good potential, I love it, down, despite being in Maple does not provide acute screaming like you would expect, but it provides super clear sound magnified by the single coils

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a week and I am total addict, I have yet a strat United States, Japan and a row ... a Lag Bédarieux love, but I like the sound precise, soft as a caress round of chick, and I wonder: if a Chinese TV is as well that should be a model America??!

Crafted in china, 21 frets Saddle button, microphone type tl Std: slect 3 positions, 1 vol, 1 tone. std easel. . .

UTILIZATION

The handle is extra, acute CHAC is relatively easy on the neck is satin varnish and does not slide too fast but polished playing trs. Its weight is acceptable since trs thickness of the body Reduces. the sound is that of tl not worry!

SOUNDS

For my part, I play blues / rock, not easy to tame, the mcaniques really m.. Dique, electronics as well, and varnish finish level body leaves adsirer: after one week white spots appeared, ireffutable proof that the wood is green! is a skyscraper of beginners and it takes a lot of mods to be really happy. I started by changing the electronics, all fender biensr United States! in terms of microphones (not rotten, but almost) I have also changed for DiMarzio Twang King dp 172 dp 173 for neck and bridge for bk. I still have a change mcaniques and you're playing. ultimately extra quality for less than 500 euros! I put 4 for the original quality and 8 with the changes, not 10 as the wood is not dry, it will be better in a year.

OVERALL OPINION

I play with for a week 1 / 2, the handle is great, all the curves filled my hand. what I like least is the quality-General for the acastillage, qualitprix level is nothing to say because its price is less than that of a race! 230 euros.

Made in China
21 frets
rglages: volume knob, and tonalitbr /> selector 3 positions (too big and poorly placed on the mound in wild rhythm, replace it with a selecteut of strata.)
cls inaccordables and trs dsaccordant fast ...
drglant easel is alone due to vibration (yes indeed)

5 because of the quality of matrial

UTILIZATION

Channel super-enjoyable (the best I got), end
Access in acute comfortable
ergonomics ... the edges of the guitar are not rounded like the stratocaster, less comfort
Guitar lgre both solid and
the sound is splendid, the twang of tl is the squier pickups but the lack of potatoes.
Trs good sustain

SOUNDS

Ah the sound of the tlcaster ...
Coutes led zeppelin 1 and 2 ...

rhythm guitar crunch to its clear
well in arpges
trs well as in solos (most of my characters got a strat)
the bass sounds nice but not powerful trs.

good for the squier good sound but lacks some EHJV

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 years
I love this guitar
I think changing to fit cls finally agreed, and microphones to save power

with more money, it is better to take us directly (highway), but for the price of dpart and with modifications honreuses too, we get for less than 500 euros a great guitar.

for 150 euros is the best!

Factory in China as the registration prcise crafted in China on the back of the head!
In the era it was a SERIES limit, only the colors Butterscotch,
but since this color is available on the Tl Affinity

Pickguard black or white depending on the stores
Alder body
Channel mapple

UTILIZATION

Trs enjoyable round, satin varnish provides a "gliding" perfect
Not always well finished frets on the edges, a hand rub a little on the edges of the handle!
The mcaniques are enjoyable and reliable at the moment
Squier correct weight because this is less a real Paisse Tlcaster (40 mm against 45 mm)

SOUNDS

Sound that suits me but as I played only with headphones, so I can not give
crdible an opinion on the subject

OVERALL OPINION

Some problem finishing as poorly finished frets on the edges or the pickguard not always
trs dcoup well but that does not impede and really does not affect the sound of the guitar is
The most important
For cons, the body of the guitar is beautiful and trs assembly of three parts trs RALIS well,
they are distinguished only, I thought even that is silent in one pice!

I possde since 2003 and so far I have not encountered any problem with mcaniques
which are well agreement with a draft standard of 9-42, the micro slecteur still works
correctly

In short a nice little Squier trs, trs lower its price will forget the small default finishes
and allow the lovers to Tlcaster possder a little without breaking the bank
A good value trs qualitprix

Price gnralement observation in France: 250 euros

Squier tele akin, made in China if I am correct.
21 frets
2 mic like all the tele
3 position selector micro tele like all the
1 volume
1 tone

Although it is not sure the quality of US but the key is there.

UTILIZATION

The neck is super nice and suits me perfectly, I tried the Mexican series and the difference is minimal, lergonomie is the same for American series in a little less well finished so I do not complain.
In terms of weight it properly.
Is getting good sound is easy, you know a jack plug, put the volume, set a tone and how it uses micro? Everything works as hell.

SOUNDS

Quite simply everyone has a fetish Gratt and I have found mine, so it suits me for the sound! I play with a FERDER FM 65 R 2 together and walk nickel, and also a DS-1 pedal. I get the sound I want from mild to warm crystal-clear, foil ... etc.. properly for a tele! Personally I like all the sonoritée a condition to play this match. That's good since I am rather Polivalente, I get to play big thing very powerful rock metal or simple walks variety or music.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 1moi and a half of thunder and it works. I tried quite a model, I needed a model and the tele Gammla price there is no mass (220 €). I find the money RAPORT very acceptable for a budget. I do it again this choice indegniablement ... unless I had more good tune for sure probably an American series.

Guitar Asian manufacturing
2 single coil pickups
easel massive and solid (very close to the US model)
SETTINGS: Volume 1 tonalitbr 1 /> 3-position selector
Mapple handle

UTILIZATION

Handle very enjoyable (like all squier should be tried on a 15 to fall out of a good series "finishing + rglages"
Access in an acute ditto tele us
body thinner than a tele or Mexic lgre us longer (but not too much)
telecaster's "plug and play" slamming trs

SOUNDS

I plugged into an Orange Crush 15R amp
I have a big sound that can be lacking sometimes in the gain medium
trs sound is close to the Mexican tele
I play knob personal background with selector in the middle

OVERALL OPINION

It's been two years since I played with
no problem finishing and no failure
I have tried many guitars and some Mexican telecaster Us
but I had no budget
excellent quality price (squier amlior since it is monitoring more than increased production by fender)
I do not regret that choice, but try to board 10 before buying one
(There are better series finished on the same model)

Made in China, 21 frets thin, two microphones simple good qualities, a fixed bridge, one volume, one tone, one switch, a handle end, easy to grip, what a TV ...

UTILIZATION

The handle thickens do not fret too much about the latest in style fender, handles nice, easy, with a good feeling, we regret the muzzle to the belly and the one for the forearm but hey, it's not a stratovolcano. It is light as a feather. We get lots of sounds, all positions of selector is used and interesting, we are surprised to discover: the sound is ZZ Top, Led Zep is the sound, is sound policy, in fact we discover how this guitar is incredibly simple rich in its variety.

SOUNDS

You can not ask him to do the trash, whatever his side slamming the attack of the notes gives him an edge that goes well with this style. simple microphones become noisy at high saturations. all sounds are good, power insoupsonnée in acute sound "solid", more serious flutter with the microphone. for the blues zz top debut this may be the guitar for you. the sustain is not great, but by crossing the strings through the body is improved things (for hackers).

OVERALL OPINION

The finish is often poor, it is not unusual to find pieces of wood that blocked the first one mounting holes of the handle a little stripped (example). A auscultation before buying, if not for the price it gives a good idea of ​​the mind TV, unique, inimitable. you need a TV in his collection, like a les paul or a stratovolcano. it's amazing how many sounds known that this guitar generated, we do not realize it until you have tasted. It is much stronger than that to believe. a very large rock guitar.

Made in China country known for c scratch
