"It'a real Fender,like the ones they made way back then...."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Never gonna replace it,a Fender is forever,no matter how many other guitars you can afford,there's something positive in having and using the same guitar for your entire life,even if it's not the only one you have.
Sound
No way to fault this guitar.Excellent build quality,excellent factory settings and a sound palette to die for.Really,this guitar could easily be all the guitars you should need.
Features
Fair amount of accessories,strap,cable,booklet and superb,rugged molded case.The grain pattern of the ash used is stunning to say the list,lokks far more pricey than it is.
Quality
As above,really nothing to fault,it has the best value out of all the other instruments I have,and I'm not talking about cheapos......
Value
Yes,definetely it is,actually the could raise the price without complaints,but don't let this spill out......
Manufacturer Support
No direct access to official product registration from Italy. May I need assistance in any case it's a Fender,and Leo intended it to be serviceable friendly in the first place,so......
The Wow Factor
It's beautifully crafted,best materials used,huge tonal quality,playing is a pleasure,it just makes you wanna play.

"This Tele rocks!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
I have loved my Strats for a while now and its sad to say, but I think they have been replaced with this guitar. This will be my new main guitar for a while.
Sound
I am a long time American Strat player, but after getting this guitar, I think I will become a long time Tele player. The sound is vibrant and smooth. It twangs and bangs. Smooth overtones and crunches really nice with distrotion. It does it all.
Features
It comes with the standard issue American Fender products: strap, good cable, booklet, allen keys, and a molded case. It's hard to complain, but I wanted a tweed case, but the rest of the guitar makes up for that easily.
Quality
American series Fender, that says it all. The wood has no knotts, the electronics are excellent, etc.
Value
You get what you pay for and more. Quality in sound and equipment. While it is expensive conpared to non-american guitars, it is definately worth the difference, and compared to other American made guitars, Fenders are actually quite cheap and just as good or better in my opinion. This Tele rocks!
Manufacturer Support
While I haven't had direct contact with Fender, there are tons of local dealers and everyone and their brother knows about Fender. Plus, I don't think this thing will ever break.
The Wow Factor
This Tele Rocks. The first day that I brought it home I played with some freinds and they all loved it and so did I. I wanted it for a while and it was worth the wait. the finish is beautiful and it has such smooth attack on the neck. It wants to be played.

American Ash Telecaster Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Sound
I play primarily blues,this is the ultimate machine. Have owned many others costing much more with all kinds of switches, doodads etc, but nothing come close. I am a fan of DiAdairrio 11's on Tele's.
Features
Came with full complement - finally give you a decent cord (albeit short)
Ease of Use
Part of the appeal of any tele is the simplicity of controls along with a hard tail.
Quality
Quality not an issue
Value
Easily worth another $400
Manufacturer Support
N.A.

You either love tele's or you don't
