  1. I'm not an expert in what's going on in the guitar market, but surely it has to mean something that nearly all Fender American Professional II models went out of stock in the last few days? #guitar #fender #telecaster

  2. Taking the kit build guitar (Telecaster) to an old mate's proper carpentry workshop in Chatham tomorrow, to get the six through body string holes drilled.

    A true Chatham boy, salt of the earth, he said there is normally a small charge for 'mate' jobs.

    "Packet of biscuits mucker, plain, not chocolate". 👍😁

  4. Now trying to convince my wife it is wise to invest your money in #Telecaster guitars
    I mean, just look at this beauty!

  5. I think my appreciation for #Telecaster guitars can be traced back to this single image from 1990
    (I was going to write "my opinion that Telecasters were cool", but They Might Be Giants were decidedly anti-cool, and I guess so was I)

  6. #Guitar #Telecaster #Question
    Both Dan from That Pedal Show and Zack from Ask Zack have had the tone circuit removed from the neck pickup on their teles.
    Mine has a gold foil middle pickup. The options are remove the tone from both the neck and the gold foil middle, or leave it.
    What are the pros and cons?

  7. anybody knows here when Francis Rossi changed the pickups on his green #telecaster? Here's 1986 when he had the original pickups still
    also Rick parfit knocking over almost a guitar head on his head

  8. #Telecaster is all back together!

    It's playing well and the electrical contact cleaner did wonders for the knobs and switch. I still want to make sure it's setup properly, but that can wait until next weekend. It's still got some wear and tear, but it hasn't looked this good in years. 😊

    This wasn't my first #guitar, but it holds a lot of sentimental value, having been a gift from my parents ~20 years ago when I was a teenager. I love the lightly flame figured maple neck, too! (Rare drop!)

  9. Over the last couple of weeks I've made it my weekend project to restore my #telecaster as much as I can, after dropping it for the first time in my 20 years of owning it and putting a big chip in the body.

    Here it is in exploded form after fixing the chip, wet sanding and buffing the body and guard, and using electrical contact cleaner on the pots and switches.

  10. @freezenet I've done this exact thing before so I knew where it was going and was non-plussed BUT - that guy's tone is great - I have a Tele, I have an amp...what gives!

  11. Fender Telecaster patented on August 14, 1951. The patent number was “Des. 164,227”. The guitar is my own mid 80's MIJ Tele.

  12. Born this day in 1909 Leo Fender. Founder of Fender Musical Instruments. In 1950 the company released the Esquire, a thin body, fast neck electric that wouldn't feedback when played at volume of dance halls. Adding a second pick-up in '51 we had the Broadcaster which became the Telecaster. Still one of the most popular electric guitars for any genre.

    Need I say the sounds we hear today might be very different if not for Leo Fender. What does a Fender Stratocaster sound like when played through a Fender Champ amp? Listen to Clapton on "Layla".

  13. Ça me manquait trop même si c'est dangereux pour mes épaules : je viens de me racheter une guitare électrique simple et pas chère.

    Je viens de l'essayer et je n'en reviens pas : la finition, la jouabilité, la tenue de l'accord et le son (nan mais le son ! 💕 Ce micro manche ! 🤩) sont parfaits, sans rien à améliorer ni à régler.
    C'est stupéfiant.

    Larry Carlton T7, moins de 550 euros.

    Moins bien même quand c'est 5 fois plus cher ? Bye bye Fender ! 😂

  14. Zum #guitartuesday heute:

    D.O.G.s aus eher weichem Korpusholz mit Saiten durch den Body, wie z.B. bei einer #telecaster, bekommen eine Einlage aus hartem Ahorn->mehr Attack als ohne, direktere, schnellere Ansprache des Tones. Bei ´ner #Tele: einfach mehr TWANG :-)

  17. Nach 23 Jahren gestern meine #Vintage #Reissue #Fender #Telecaster hergegeben. Hatte ich damals (Kaufdatum 12.1.02) von meinem ersten Gehalt gekauft.

    Sehr lange habe ich immer gedacht, dass ich die nie hergebe. Aber die Karawane zieht weiter. Ich hänge nicht mehr an dieser Gitarre...

  18. Telecaster Thinline + Joyo AC Tone + MXR micro flanger + JHS Octave Reverb. Heaven. #guitarpedals #guitar #JHS #thatpedalshow #telecaster

  19. I recorded this two years ago as a proof of concept, and over the last two days I finally figured out how to mix it in #audacity so it sounds natural and acoustic, with no booming and no crackles. (I also had a problem with background electrical hum I only just figured how to mix out; I think my new neighbours have a smart fridge or something.)

    It's a lovely tune anyway, and think it rather suits classical guitar and "woodwind".

  21. #DavePhililps was the former lead singer and #UprightBass player of the legendary #BlueCats.

    With his short-time solo project (AFAIK w/ the legendary #MarkHarman on #Telecaster guitar), he released a few very successful tracks like this one, "The Trip".

  22. Modded this guitar AGAIN. Bigsby B-16 vibrato is in!
    This time is the last time, right?

  23. Bahamas/Afie Jurvanen at Asbury Lanes last night. Second time I've seen him, first time was just solo Afie. What a killer band. Was definitely oldest audience member and went in to show sooo curious about what kind of crowd he'd draw. It sold out, shocking but great! Crowd talked over most of the show, shocking but disappointing! Especially since this is music that really pays dividends on attentive listening. Hi tele tone and chops are 🔥

  29. Been away far too long, a made in Japan '62 reissue Telecaster. It's in pretty good shape, really just needs a clean and a restring.

    It's early 90s I think, bought new but can't remember when. There's no serial anywhere. The one on the bridge suggests 85-86 but MiJ guitars notoriously used these bridges until about 2000.

    The only way to know for sure is to take the neck off because they tended to write the date in pencil on the neck heel but that's not happening!

  30. My biggest sabbatical achievement was to finally finish building my first #partscaster #telecaster featuring an #upcycled cedar body salvaged from a ceiling by @nomoonlaser on eBay, pickguard made from a Led Zeppelin LP, and vintage-correct parts from Guitar Fetish. Plays like a dream! @LucasValleyCustomGuitars #ngd #guitar #luthier
