My first Tele (Rockinger)

elavd · January 28th, 2006, 03:44 PM

Hello everybody!!
This is the first time I write in this perfect forum Very Happy
I just bought my first tele from Rockinger for about 500€ and I wanted to share my happiness with you Smile!!!

It has a perfect Candy Apple Car color with double binding, and a PERFECT twangy (but also) full tele tone that just KILLS!!!

You can have a look 2 photo albums that I made here and here.
Album 1
Album 2

So, what do you thing?

Hi elavd,

welcome to the board.
The Rockinger Tele is an excellent choice - would love to see "real-life" pictures of the doublebound CAR Tele.
Unfortunatelly, you forgot to past the link to your photos in your message.

since I am responsible for converting our new friend elavd to the tele (he is also a Greek lucky enough to live in the most beautiful Greek city GIANNENA) I thought it was my responsibility to post the a/m link

You lucky guy. Since the end of last year, there's a new shop just around the corner of my appartment with a huge selection of finest German and Tchech beer... :D

That is a very nice looking guitar. Looks like an excellent copy of a 62 Custom........... and real Klusons.

Nice guitar.

Now, can somebody tell me about Rockinger teles?

Nick Fanis · January 29th, 2006, 10:17 AM

www.rockiner.com

sure thing:

with 480-530 euros you get some killer teles w/ amazing pickups,workmanship & feel.

they kick most Fenders up to 2000 euros in the &^%@

Your lawn looks like it needs some attention there

jimbobfingernails · January 29th, 2006, 11:07 AM

Ok I'll take care of it!!!

This evening I put my favorite (bright) Vinci strings and plugged the guitar into my Hot Rod Deluxe. I turned up the volume pretty loud and then ... I saw HEAVEN!!! :D:D:D

This beauty has PERFECT twangy sound and tones of sustain...

:D :D

Highly recomended!!!

You cannot find anything closer to this quality and sound for these money...
