Customer Reviewsfrom Holbrook, MA July 31, 2006 Music Background: pro Musician Best guitar I've ever owned.I've tried many guitars. This one's the best i've owned. Light weight compared to other guitars. Play weekly in a Country, Rock & Oldies band.Great working tool. Strap it on and go ! Use with a Fender Twin amp. from Hazleton, Pa October 3, 2006 Music Background: 40 Years, classic rock, blues Great guitar, great sound, great valueSound is so versatile, neck pickup lets you get very close to that Gibson Les Paul woman tone. Middle selector sounds like a strat, and the neck pickup sounds close but not quite as twangy a single coil tele. You can play rock, blues, country, just about any thing. The neck is quick, the intonation was perfect right out of the box, and the finish is justbeautiful on the natural model. I have 8 guitars, and this is 2nd only to my Gibson Sg 61, and that cost about a 1,000 more. Buy it now, before the price goes up. I use it for recording, I have a 16 track studio and write music, but if anyone out there writes lyrics, mostly rock or pop. e-mail me from Indy October 9, 2008 Music Background: 20+ years writing and recording music Blues & Jazz MonsterAbout 4 years ago I was unhappy with my guitar "tone".I went on a mission to find the perfect guitar. I ran across this guitar and was blown away. Not only is this one hot looking guitar (Every gig someone will tell how nice it looks). It delivers outstanding warm tones. I play this guitar through a Fender tube amp and love the results. The laminate maple frets are so smooth and fast, it almost plays itself. Is this the "perfect" guitar? I don't know, but it sure works for me. I would recommend this guitar for blues and jazz. from North Carolina July 20, 2006 Music Background: Blues,Country and whatever else I can sit in on...... Double ToneI own one of these and you can get a Great "Texas Blues" single coil tone from the neck P-up and a Respectable "Tele Twang" with the Rear,,it depends on the Amp and your 'Tone Tweakin' ability ... The middle position seems to work well with any effects or modeling amp..It is not a light guitar even with the Ash and Semi-hollow design..and remember you don't get big frets like the new models but, you get an adjustable neck,,,,I Like the versatility of this guitar,,,and the Looks Speak for themselves,,,,,,

from Springfield, MA November 1, 2005 Try a bunch before you pick one!This is often my main guitar ( when I'm not playing my Gibson LP) and it is really nicely done. I have the sunburst model, and I've given mine a nice custom tortoise-shell pickguard and Fender amp knobs for volume and tone, making mine the only one I've seen without the ugly white pearloid pickguard and chrome knobs. I've seen many and tried them, but mine seems to be set up way better - my action is insanely low, and my neck is absolutely straight, making it great for fast runs up and down the neck. The sound is somewhere different than your standard tele due to the big wide humbuckers, but a little twang is still accessible. What I love is the neck pickup, with the tone knob set back to the middle, and run into a clean Fender tube amp. MMMM...thick, warm, sounds. Overall, check around to find a good model, and then buy it. Then figure out a solution for that ugly white pearloid...

from Santa Monica Ca Usa February 1, 2005 Great GuitarA great remake of a great original. Full of great features. The big "Wide Range" Humbuckers make it possible to play blue, rock, and over distorted punk if thats your thing.
