T-Style electric guitar with flamed maple top and ceramic single coils
The Fame SE Series TL Deluxe Amber combines the traditional TL style with beautiful custom appointments without tearing a hole in your wallet. While the mahogany body with top and back made of flamed maple and tortoise bindings presents itself as a dignified eye-catcher, the bolt-on maple neck nestles comfortably in the picking hand and creates optimal playing conditions on the 21-fret fingerboard. Two single-coil pickups reinforced with ceramic magnets conjure up a subtly modernized twang sound on the guitar amp, which also convinces with lively assertiveness in the overdrive channel. Last but not least, the reliable hardware features, which rely on a traditional 3-saddle bridge with string guide through the body and smooth-running die-cast tuners, guarantee long-lasting playing pleasure with the Fame SE Series TL Deluxe Amber.
The Fame SE Series TL Deluxe Amber convinces with a chic look and first-class sounds.

I ordered the Fame SE TL Deluxe Amber, because I wanted to find out if the buzz over Fame Guitars really is justified. In short, the guitar is much better than I'd expected, even if the bridge was installed a tad askew (no practical problem, only cosmetic) and the stripe on the body isn't actually going down the middle (cosmetic, too). The guitar plays well and sounds much better than I'd expected at this price point. The out-of-phase middle position on the switch is cool for really funky excursions.
