Best value:
Excellent
In which country was it made?
He writes that it is just assembled in China
What type of bridge?
6 vintage telecaster bridge saddles
Very poor quality, screw height adjustment of the bridges have not taken more than 2 months for some. But I use a standard pulling strings. Fortunately I had in reserve a Fender bridge that fits perfectly on this guitar, no more worries.
What kind of stick?
Maple neck, C-profile (for a classic tele). Alder body I think (check).
How many frets, what kind of microphone and their configuration?
22 frets, 2 Duncan Design micro model telecaster.
The handle is very easy and very pleasant. By micro cons are not stay very long on the guitar, I planned to change them before buying this guitar. I tested quickly anyway, it sounds not too bad, but nothing exceptional, not much personality. I installed a fender tele vintage stick and a G & L bluesboy in bridge, and there it sounds much better.
What are the settings?
Setting very simple: a three-position switch to select a single microphone or both at the same time and two pots, one for volume and one for tone. Nothing to say about these factors, it seems proper quality.
I put a score of 7 primarily because the bridge is really poor quality, may be after it was a fault on my guitar, and also the microphone that is not great, at the same time at this price ... ..
UTILIZATION
The handle is it nice?
Yes very nice, I'm changing my handle before Ibanez ^ ^.
Ergonomics is good?
I feel, because it is partly hollow, it is a bit lighter than my previous guitar.
For form is the form typical telecaster, Me like it.
Access to acute (last string) Is it easy?
Exactly the same as for a classic telecaster (sorry I know this is not an answer, but I'm more rhythmic solo ^ ^)
Do you get a good sound easy?
This guitar is very simple to use, a more serious neck pickup is selected, inversely with the bridge pickup and a tuning with the two pots .... nothing fancy.
I put 10 because it suits me perfectly.
SOUNDS
Are they suitable for your style of music?
I do a good big rock, fat, pulling a little on the punk moments and it's perfect.
(Always keep in mind that my pickups are not original)
What kind of sound you get and with what settings?
Very versatile anyway, I can have beautiful clear sound with my Fender amp and bass distortion well fat. on the other hand recess it may be limited to metal, but hey I do not think our friends metalheads moving on this kind of guitar.
With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I play a Fender hybrid (performer 1000), with an octave, big muff, equalizer and wah.
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
I love the combination of the two microphones, I can have a fairly balanced in its clean or distortion. I like a little less clean in the bridge pickup with a lot of treble, but this is a matter of taste.
Both pickups together produce relatively little parasite, while the horror is when I'm on one ... after that may be just my wiring.
I put 8 is the sound I wanted, but I still remember that this is not the original pickups. I had to test them anyway out of curiosity, but nothing to do with those I have now, I probably put a score of 5 max.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for just over 3 months I had tried other telecaster: for me it is well above the initial price Squier, but obviously below the official Fender I've tried.
If that choice had to be rebuilt I would take the same model can be Thinline but classic vibe (the varnished wood, I like very much), although slightly more expensive. I knew this model on the internet, shoreline gold color scared me at first when I saw pictures, but in reality it is very beautiful, I got very quickly, and all those who give me their opinion is the very beautiful too.
What I like most is the fact that it is a Thinline, I always wanted to have one, and more here it is new and cheap ... ^ ^
on the other hand I am repeating myself but I was very disappointed with the easel, the microphones also there but I doubt it.
Finally we talk about sub ^ ^, very good value (about 300 euros I think), very good violin. And for some euros more you add an easel and good microphones and then we get a really good guitar.
Edit: After several months of use I noticed a small problem when accuracy is far from the head, even after adjustment in the luthier. Nothing too serious, but eventually it feels. For this reason I do is only 8, despite the attractive price of the beast.
