Fender Classic Series '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar Black Maple Fretboard

I have two American teles and this mim is just as nice ...i really like this combination of pickups. I had to tweak the neck alignment and action a little also needed to adjust the toggle switch these things aren't a bother for me .I think I got a good deal and the gig bag is real nice

Classic.... and Improved!!! My first impression was...cool, a really nice Tele!! Then it was soon followed by... this playes nicer than I imagined. The tones are pure rock, blues, jazz. I was unsure about the neck radius until I gave it a good set up....now I know what a 7.25" radius is... comfortable and natural. Only changes I have made are upgraded the saddles to Titanium Gotoh. Improved the intonation and tone seems more organic... bit more sustain too!! The Bridge pickup is hot and punchy. The neck WRHB needed a bit of tweaking. Adjusted the poles to the radius of strings. This has less output in the neck position but has a tonal quality that's perfect for blues!! Overall, this guitar rocks and will be a keeper!!

My dream guitar. Could not ask for better. The best of two worlds rock and country twang. Outstanding tone. Very nice feel on the fret board.

There's nothing like this guitar. Sweet with a nice bit of chunk because of the Humbuckers. Plays well. The original tele bridge sets this apart from many of the other current tele models

Some reviewers on other sites have complained about the pickups and the tuners on this guitar. I haven't had any issues with either; the guitar has to be re-tuned occasionally, but no more than any other guitar that I've played. As for the pickups, they do what they're supposed to do. The humbucker gives you the thick, more harmonically complex sound, while the bridge gives you the Tele scream. If yours isn't screaming, perhaps you need to change your amp and/or pedal settings; I play through a pretty mediocre Peavey Express 110 that I bought back in 1995 with Boss Super Overdrive and Digital Delay pedals. It sounds fantastic to me. This is a great guitar. Yes, it's made in Mexico. Yes, you'd be doing more for the American economy if you bought an American Special (a model that I also own and recommend). For the money, though, this is a fantastic instrument and if you're seriously thinking about buying one, I'd say 'go for it.'

This is a childhood friend that came back to me. I had the real guitar from 1978 to 1982 and I regret that I sold it. The tone, paint, chrome, action and everything about this guitar is like my old one. The pickups are very warm and round and bright. The humbucker in the neck position lets you play jazz and blues with great style. Almost plays itself! Great guitar...after 30+ years I have another burst Tele custom!
