Great Tele

| Review By: Rebelhoss | 1 week, 2 days ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

It's a Telecaster, not much to it, but what's there is all ya need.

Quality:

Workmanship is beautiful. Stunning looking guitar. I have the sunburst. Feels great. Well made.The binding is awesome.

Value:

It's pricey, but I think it's worth it.

Overall:

The overall feel of this guitar is great. Sounds just like a Tele should. The neck is so good, I wish I could have this neck on my other 3 Teles. I think it is better made, better sounding, and better looking than the American Standard. Well worth the extra cash.

Fender American Vintage Series "62 Telecaster

| Review By: Robert Horbett | 1 week, 4 days ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

The guitar came in less then a week and was in brand new condition.  The finish is flawless, the neck is straight and I only had to do a minor adjustments on the string height and intonation.  I'm very happy with the guitar and MusciansFriend.  I ordered from them in the past and never had a problem.  I'm sure that that I will order from them in the near future. Also, the rosewood fretboard is dark just the way I like it. It has a different feel to it.

Bobsdurango!

Quality:

The Quality of the guitar is excellent (5 stars).

Value:

I would rate the price that I paid excellent.  I lucked out and purchased it when they were running a sale,

Overall:

Overall, the whole process from when I ordered it to when I received it and looked at it was fantastic.  Jordan (the sales rep) was very helpfull with the order.

What Leo fender had in mind.

Overall:
This 1962 replica, which I have in surf green, is a magnificent instrument. It is lightweight, perfectly balanced and so easy to play. I had the switching converted to the conventional Tele 3 way switching so I can engage both pickups in the middle position. What sound! What distinctive twangy tone! I'm sure this is what Leo Fender wanted his Teles to sound like. Strats are great,I have the '62 counterpart, but when I play this Tele, I feel it in my soul. Not inexpensive, but in my opinion superior to the American Deluxe Tele, because of the superior pickups.
