Description:
|
Basically this guitar is a Thinline Telecaster copy that can be found at Rondomusic.com for 149.00 US dollars. Was only going to use the woods (3 piece swamp ash body & maple neck) but when I first played the guitar it was actually pretty decent, everything was comparable to an american standard except the neck pick up which was way to bright. The bridge was super twangy though it was really something unique. It feels exactly like any other tele, the tuners felt cheap, but there holding tune well.
Concluding I changed the Neck pick up with a Gretsch 6120 humbucker, when I took of the pickguard a hole big enough for the gretsch was already cut, and the pots were already 500k. This explained the bright neck but this made the job easy.
See for yourself I highly recommend this guitar:
