Manufacturer's Description for Fender Aerodyne Telecaster Electric Guitar

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!

"Pure Class"
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. 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. 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. 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. Manufacturer 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. The Wow Factor: 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. 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.

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "A Shiny Love Afffair"
Sound: I Love my Aerodyne Tele..... That classic Tele twang is always there with this shiny beauty, every time i pick it up, i go for the clean twang and relish the tone.. but with the neck pickup i can get softer jazz lounge tone, if you play with the selector and tone knob you get lost in a whole world of tones . to me it's every guitar in a shiny curved tele shape and whether you play chords or lead you'll slide effortlessly over the smooth frets.. Try one .. if you see one in a shop.. have a go... I DARE YOU.. you won't be leaving the shop without it Feature: Simple Simple Simple.. that's the key here, every part on this is tried and tested fender, quality oozes from this relatively budget guitar. you get the usual Tele bridge pickup, but the neck pickup is not standard tele, (I'm no techie) it's bigger and fatter (as is the sound), Two knobs, one for Volume and one for tone, and one three position pickup select switch. everything in the body is installed from the back, via two holes covered by inset coverplates giving a smooth back, but more importantly, an uninterrupted smooth radiused front.. the predominant feature of this black piano lacquered body, set off with cream edge binding.. mmmm Ease of Use: Simple again, no surprises, everything is where you expect, it's a seamless connection of player and guitar.. and as it's so light for a tele, you can just enjoy the experience. Quality: Fit and finish are top quality, as you would expect from a Japanese Fender, the lacquer is smooth and resilient, and has a lovely warm feel Value: Value for money is a phrese which springs to mind, but doesn't do the quality justice, as it implies it's built to a price, there's little to distinguish this from a top custom Fender, except for lack of fancy superfluous decoration.. Manufacturer Support: never had to contact Fender or anyone over this guitar The Wow Factor: You know you want one, just look at it.. I still look at it on the stand in my house and try playing little games, like, not looking at it for a while, then looking at it, to see if I still like it........ and I do... Overall: If I had to get rid of some my guitars, i would keep this and my Martin acoustic above any others
