    The characteristics for then, I'll never be the man for the job, then go see the old posts, anyway, it's a Telecaster Asia, its almost enough;)

    UTILIZATION

    Dej handle is really impressive, very well dcoup either as top down, everything goes smoothly, it is a rgal, however, little flat, not on the frets, which are finite, but the veneer of the handle, very ... sticky shall we say. I had already found that the default MODEL Start here no change, it checks out, and slips, bah to beginners is not terrible.

    Dej handle is really impressive, very well dcoup either as top down, everything goes smoothly, it is a rgal, however, little flat, not on the frets, which are finite, but the veneer of the handle, very ... sticky shall we say. I had already found that the default MODEL Start here no change, it checks out, and slips, bah to beginners is not terrible. After that the paint wears quickly get used to, no problem, but I think this point should be clear.
    Then ergonomics is that of a tele, it's good, but not Folichon, one goes up to 18 bp without box above, the heel does not help, you must have something to la- up to play, it's not very comfortable. A Tele, neither more nor less! For weight, happy that his is not agate, is quite Lger, your shoulder will thank you on this one;)
    The good sound, ... Joker, the sound comes easy, its still good APRS subjective and I tell you my opinion just over there.
    She must agree

    SOUNDS

    my style, blues, pop rock, rock, jazz and a little more time, even funk and country, but personally, I have not hooked his at all, I have enough t dumme! Everyone praised the guitar for these sounds sublime, bah I find it very EXAGRES.
    Okay, 350 for a guitar, come first purchase, or as the first Tele, its very smoothly, but the microphones are all the same bland (at least on my model) and especially not an output level terrible! In his clear, it's not n'gale Crystalline Real Fender Mexican Std same. Relatively little of this cot Dfine for any position of selection of microphones.
    However, it is in crunch begins to discover that, without either dazzle! Its very vintage, its not much sustain, but it's pretty banging, really interesting in bridge pickup. The pickups seem to handle missing fishing, clearly below. But in the end, the guitar developed a particular grain hear, not unpleasant, nice.
    However, I contradict already read several reviews, this guitar is below the Mex Std. May well be the model essay n'tait pafait not, but I would say that its looking for is also not the same: I mean that sounds pretty modern and VERY fender will the Mexican sounds resolutely go the vintage Fender.

    OVERALL OPINION

    In the end, I have not bought. Be aware that this model, I tried long ago, I tried several models of Telecaster, also several models of Classic Vibe for me to make a more specific on the ide possible, and that my work is not vain, I hope to contribute to the site.
    What I like most: her beauty she has something that I did not find a Fender, whether U.S. or Mex. Very beautiful, vintage cot attractive, but the sound is not versatile enough for me to compete Mex Std. Having compared the two models, there is no comparison, besides, I Specifies that the output level of the Squier is lower than the Fender. What I liked least ... its lack of dynamism and versatility in the sound: we like it or not, and I didn't have hooked at all, the sound seemed smothered lacked volatility.
    In the end no surprises, good clean guitar 350 satisfy those looking for a good guitar not too expensive, typical Tele. In its price range, it competes quite! In contrast, no surprise, either, when one goes up in price, quality general too, and the Fender Std I liked more. APRS will remain Scrooge and those who truly love this guitar, all aps, all tastes are in nature.
    Finally, I contradict the opinions of a lot of people, so, board, will try it, even if I critique a lot, it's worth it to be careful!
