Hello !
Up for sale is a great T-style (see item specifics) electric guitar for the price !
This one has been set up by a professional. This is a $40 to $50 value in and of itself. The action has been adjusted so it is not crazy high, but it's low enough that you still get a nice Tele sound like you would expect. The lucky buyer has some room to lower it some more if they desire. It has also been intonated to pretty much spot on ! (This is the part that you probably won't get from one of these guitars straight from the manufacturer or middle man.) This one was pretty good out of the box and just required some fine-tuning to get the intonation pretty much right on the money ! Not only is the guitar in tune at every position on the neck, I feel that the guitar's tuning stability has improved substantially. Because it doesn't matter how good you are if your axe won't stay in tune!
Now that it's been set up and intonated, it plays and sounds just like a Tele should !
You've got that distinctive growl on the neck pickup and that twang on the bridge pickup (but not too crazy on this model) that you would expect from the model that Leo Fender originated ! The middle position on the onboard 3-way pickup selector sounds great, too !
It also plays very well. Your aspiring musician will not be discouraged from staying with this wonderful instrument. Because while it gives you just enough resistance to build up your finger strength and callouses, the strings aren't so high off the fretboard that you can't even grip a chord fully …. something that you might want to be ready for if you buy one of these "off the shelf" guitars that haven't received a set-up.
The neck on this one is also very thin. Great for smaller hands and/or younger players that can't play the baseball bat necks on some guitars! Judging from the back of the headstock and the width/thickness of the neck, I am going to hypothesize that this guitar was made from the same factory that Ibanez-es are. The neck is very reminiscent of a Wizard neck ! Just what I wanted …. a Tele body with an Ibanez neck ! You can play metal and shred with this thing!
Intermediates will also love the sound of this guitar whose strings aren't so close to the fretboard that they're practically buzzing ! But if you need it lower, you have the included allen wrenches with which you can fine tune the action if you want to.
Pros and working musicians will also not be afraid to bring this guitar out to their not so high paying gigs, so they can keep their $1k-$2k Tele at home!
Because not only does this model play and sound great. It is a stunner ! Yeah, yeah, for this price, it's obviously a printed top. But man, it still looks terrific. Especially from farther away …. and isn't that the closest your adoring fans will get to you from the venue floor?
Guitar is brand new with box ! Also comes with allen wrenches so you can adjust the truss rod and/or tweak the action with the bridge saddles to your liking!
We will clean the body and the back of the neck with Clayton guitar polish before shipping. Strings will be cleaned with string cleaner, even though they are brand new. And the fretboard will be conditioned with the same guitar polish, since it is a maple neck.......So the lucky buyer can just plug her in and start rockin' out !!!!!
These T-styles are loved by beginners and seasoned guitarists alike....and good ones are hard to find at this price. Grab this one now before someone else realizes its bang for the buck !
Please read the condition description, these listing details and examine the pictures carefully.
Thanks so much for your interest, and I hope you buy it now!!!!!
