I've owned and have played countless guitars over my lifetime and typically, I've never cared for teles. But while browsing at my local music store the spalted maple top caught my eye. The bound neck... read more [+] felt perfect and the bright open sound when strummed accustically had me very interested. Plugged in, I was most pleased by the tone of the stock pickups. Not overly muddy like some humbuckers but smooth and full with great clairity. The thin mahogany body and and light weight made it exceptionally comfortable, like an old friend. The build quality looked outstanding to me and the set neck and well tapered heel made reaching the upper end of the neck too easy. The greenish abalone dot inlays realIy set the whole thing off so I asked the store to hold it for 24 hrs while I did some online research since I wasn't familiar with the guitar. When I found out it had a coil split function, well, that did it. I bought it the next day and haven't stopped playing it since. Great sound, great feel, and custom shop looks make this a keeper! close [-]

I saw some reviews complaining about the hardware not being first class, considering the cost, the hardware is in line with other manufacturers. You can always upgrade the hardware later and I may do that at some point. The fret board is fairly flat with a 15 inch radius, make sure your OK with that, before you buy. close [-]

made in indonesia, if it was made in america it would cost 3 to 4 times more.the body and neck aren't as thick .the top is CARVED. the way the neck joins the body is a dream come true when you play( a... read more [+] set neck). the jumbo frets & the thinner neck make it feel like a guitar with power steering when you play. the pick-ups are dynamite. the bridge(pearly gates) pick-up is pretty HOT. I took a screw driver & raised the pole pieces closer to the strings on the bridge pick-up, it's sounds close to a lap- steel pick-up now. the tone control & pick-up switch gets good clear sounds. the volume control is close enough to the strings to either get in the way sometimes or do easy volume roll offs. this isn't a regular-sounding tele.think zz top/albert collins. the tuners & bridge look weak. i just tightened the bushings on the top of the tuners & i tightened the bridge plate. the tone control wiggles because the coil tap pot is there. it would work for me if there wasn't a coil-tap. this is a really good looking guitar. close [-]

This guitar is excellent. I used to be a Les Paul fan until I got one of these. Now this is my go to guitar. I can get Les Paul chunk and Fender twang out of the same guitar. Also, it is much lighter ... read more [+]than a Les Paul. Im all for made in America, but the build quality and playability of this guitar smokes the American Strat I had. I also get tons of comments on the look and tone of this Tele. I can't say enough good things about this one. Fender got it right with this. close [-]

When I first saw the guitar that came to my house I was elated. It is such a beautiful guitar.

The only other problem I had were the string trees were loose and had to do a minor repair for them to tighten. Now to the sound and playability. This guitar sounds great and is easy to play. It has lots of sustain. The way the pick-ups are wired give you a lot of options with different sounds. It is money well spent. close [-]
