"Pure Class"

Feature:
Its a tele, all Business. The tuners keep the guitar in tune forever, the finish will survive the nuclear holocaust,And the p-90 makes it unique to any other guitar out there.

Quality:
Utter perfection. I gig without a backup frequently.

Value:
Forget this guitar about being good "for the money", cuz its not, its just good. Id stack it up against americans or mexicans any day. id rather have a guitar made by a japanese, because when it comes right down to it, it doesnt matter if its a mexican fender or an american fender, there both made by mexicans.

Desirability:
This is easily the best looking guitar ive ever seen. I dont even like teles, in fact i hated the tele look. But the sheer class exuded by this plank is immense. It reminds me of a grande piano.

Sound:
This guitar brings the best of two different worlds and crams them into one guitar. The traditional bridge tele pickup delivers that classic tele twang that makes the telecaster, well, a telecaster. The neck pickup is a sweet p-90 pickup, very similair to the one used in Jazzmasters. This gives you a very rich jazzy, bluesy sort of sound, smoother than K-Y jelly. The Middle position really delivers a different kind a sound, a very unique, practical mix of the two.

Ease of Use:
Its a tele, all business. Plug and play, as easy as that. BUt the variety of sound you can get out of it makes it something that you can play around with for hours. Youll get the jist of the guitar in minutes, but it would take a lifetime to learn all the nuances of this guitars unique sound, time well spent.

Support:
never had to deal with fender because the aerodyne is a rock, but i understand you have to know someone whos in with a rep to get any real service.

Overall:
Simply put, the best telecaster money can buy. If it was stolen, i would devote my life to finding the guy that stole it, beat him to death with it, then wipe the blood from its still flawless gloss black body and walk away strumming into the sunset.

The Aerodyne Telecaster guitars have finally arrived! Like their brother, the Aerodyne bass, these next-generation guitars feature a carved-radius top with cream-colored binding, and a maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo frets. The Tele guitar utilizes a soap bar (neck) and single-coil pickup (bridge), three-way selector and six-saddle hard-tail bridge. This is a beautiful instrument and combines classic Fender style with new and innovative designs -- resulting in a very cool and unique guitar!
