BODY :

it's a classic Telecaster weight and shape, not a "light" one, the finish is OK, the “Top Hat” Switch Tip is usefull to quickly catch the selector, there's nothing wrong about building quality and you can choose beetween 3 beautiful colors.

NECK :

the neck is really cool, not too thick 'cause it's a C shape, very comfortable thanks to the rosewood fingerboard, the Gloss Polyurethane Finish and the small frets... fingers won't hurt.

SOUND :

hey, it's a Telecaster, easy to find a sound: 1 tone knob, 1 switch to choose between the pickups (bridge, neck+bridge or neck), ready set GO !

just one thing a bit wrong : the neck pickup is a bit weak, a lack of definition...

bridge pickup : very very good sound, "twangy" and raw... do not hesitate to strike strings.

OVERALL RATING :

it really worth the money, a really good Telecaster with classic features, good sound, very easy to play with.

this Telecaster hums, sweats, smashes, I do not manage to have pleasure playing another guitar...
