What We Think

Snappy and Snazzy!

This Tele is in great shape! All the convenience and consistency of the American Elite series in a beautiful cherry burst. Extremely quick neck and low action lets me wander around the neck with confidence and clarity, sure that every note will sound marvelous!

Noiseless Single Coils provide that classic Tele tone without any of the high noise floor associated with the single coil sound.

If you are looking for a quality Telecaster at a killer price, this may be the one!
