I've played guitars for 20+ years, frequently using Teles in the studio, but never quite finding that "perfect" combination of twang and, well, power.

Until now.

This is the guitar from Fender that we rock and blues players want. Its wide neck pickup sounds fantastic and creamy, and the bridge pickup is a classic tele. Blend 'em however you want, and you get the best of both worlds.

And it PLAYS like a well worn, well used, vintage Tele. The neck is "broken in" already and just feels perfect, and the finish looks fantastically vintage...

If you're looking for a Tele---you can't go wrong with this one. This is a keeper!

Awesome guitar, the only change I made was the strings, love the "Ernie Balls"! The Humbee pickup is awesome, really enjoy playing this axe! Quality is great, couldn't ask for a better looking and built guitar. The high gloss urethane finish on the neck is sweet but took some getting used to for me. If you're willing to spend the $, you will not be disappointed!
