The high quality of this electric guitar makes it suitable for anyone from beginner, to intermediate, to advanced, and is just as well suited for at-home practice as it is for the recording studio or gig.
The historic look of the Telecaster-style guitar has been a favorite for decades, from fans of classic rock or blues to country (the classic Tele "twang"), to legendary artists such as Muddy Waters, a young Johnny Cash, early Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck, to Bruce Springsteen and Keith Richards. Not to mention perhaps the greatest Tele-player of them all: The Legendary Roy Buchanan.
Teles are extremely versatile and have been used in all musical genres: country, rock, blues, soul and jazz. Not to mention New Wave (Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders) and punk (Joe Strummer of the Clash). Even heavy rock bands like Status Quo use the Telecaster. The bridge pickup delivers a clear, bright sound for single note picking and solos. The humbucking neck pickup is muscular and rich, great for blues, jazz and chording. Legendary bluesman Albert Collins favored a Tele with a humber in the neck position.
A Mahogany body mated with a Maple top is a great tone wood combination. Maple extends the range of Mahogany with more brilliance and punchy lows. This is the most popular laminated body type of all time. Adding a solid maple top to a solid mahogany back yields a guitar body that exhibits many of the best tonal properties of both woods. The solid maple/mahogany body is characteristically rich, warm, and resonant. You get mahogany's smooth, appealing lows with good sustain, as well as the extra clarity, definition, and bite added by the dense maple cap.
For the neck, we have chosen a Mahogany neck with a Rosewood fretboard. The second most common guitar-neck wood after Maple, Mahogany is most often coupled with a solid Mahogany or Mahogany/Maple-topped body. This more porous, open wood has a warm, mellow tone with good presence in the lower mids. The Mahogany/Rosewood pairing contributes to complex highs, thick and creamy lows, and an appealing midrange that isn't honky or excessively punchy.
The modern 6-saddle bridge is smoother and more versatile tone-wise, and pitches the strings brighter for a more true tele sound.
