TE-40 TBK Deluxe Series : Recording machine

12 years ago

This guitar...have no words for its quality and capability. Used it even in studio....that sound....Mostly Tele's are for country and rock, but with this one i even recorded metal. It can be clean as usual Tele and get dirty as Ibanez guitar. And it looks stunning. That black gloss colour...cool...Gold hardware makes it even more unusual guitar.

3 way pickup selector makes it very universal guitar. Need a solo switch to bridge, need a rhythm switch to bridge..need clean stuff, switch to both. Did RHCP stuff...couldn't even hear the difference from original...just awesome. Did some A7X stuff...was great at solos.

Sound [7/10]

For hundred euros was expecting very bad quality guitar. Unpacked it and was stunned. It was MINT. No scratches. Good paint job. Quality tuners. bridge and other stuff. Had to straighten neck little bit, but that's ok. Truss rod works great so it as easy. Playing this guitar very much and travelling with it very much but it still does not have any defects.

Quality [9/10]Couldn't ask more for the price

Buy this Tele if you are Tele fan. Will not regret. Very great value for money. Gonna buy one more for modification! :)
