Telecaster electric guitar from the Fender Player Series
Its raw and powerful character made the Telecaster not only the weapon of choice for many country, blues and rock guitarists, but also the undeniable icon among electric guitars. Combining the best of vintage and modern, the Fender Player Telecaster MN Butterscotch Blonde showcases traditional and hand-sculpted body dimensions, while two Player Series single-coils with Alnico 5magnets add a bit of bite to the classic vintage twang. In terms of playing technique, the modern C-profile ensures better grip in lead playing and, thanks to the additional 22nd fret, further possibilities on the fretboard.

The guitar itself is awesome: sound is better than I've expected, it looks good and shiny. The fretboard is kinda polish so it's really easy to play quick and as for me it's enjoyable. Pickups provide awesome Tele's sound, so it's the last thing you'll be worried about :) But not everything is that good. Unfortunately frets around 15-20 frets are sharp and go out of the fretboard a bit, so the first thing I've done after got the guitar is contacted with a guitar master to polish them and make it possible to play the guitar without. I believe that guitars priced 600+ euros had to be checked for things like this before sending them to customers. Anyway, after investing 50-100 more euros to the guitar it shall be almost perfect!
The guitar of my dreams has finally arrived. The shipping came very fast via dhl, well packaged. As for the guitar, it's a great Fender, it's truly dazzling, all you have to do is hook up and play a good amp, I'll keep commenting as you use it
Trying to maintain my sons lessons has been hard on lock down with people on top off each other, finding room for Skype sessions etc coupled with his guitar smashing on the kitchen floor his morale was low, the telecaster was the guitar of his dreams. Dv247 got it to us cheaply and much quicker than estimated (by nearly a week), straight out the box he has adored the guitar playing it every chance he gets. It’s a massive step up from the basic metal sounding starter guitar he had, he says it sounds clean and professional. Although the same size as his other one he says it’s like he has matured into an actual guitar that shows his dedication to the hobby. Many thanks to dv247 for getting it to us so quickly , though it’s a very early birthday present for him from just about the whole family. Great guitar, great sound, perfect morale lifter
