The tones are both Usable and beautiful. I found the weight pleasant. The 3 position switch offers opportunities for various sounds that are creative and fun. The p90 is louder and it seems as though the bridge pup is a bit quiet. i.e. not vary balanced. The so called PRO case is a Vietnam made NON pro case. The latches right out of the box were wonky. The color and appointments of this guitar are great. I love this tele. Oh and that tele spank? without even trying.....I know, awesome right?
