TE-20MN BM Standard Series : Just scratch that itch!

I wanted a T-style guitar. €66.00 is a no brainer! (Something such as a decision that is very easy or obvious – Cambridge dictionary)

Although it was purchased as a curiosity I have really bonded with this guitar! So much that I am adding locking tuners and noiseless pickups to suit playing out - with the need to combat lights, hearing loops and the like. The only other thing I’ll do is reverse the control plate as I think it looks good that way!

So:

Tuners – no problems with mine (I have since changed them to HB locking tuners for their convenience and because it is a main guitar now.)

Neck – no problems at all. Fretting all okay.

Body – lovely, metallic blue finish has stunned most of my friends.

Intonation – no problems. I believe some YouTube reviewers are being overly “sensitive”, it is as good as any production guitar never mind a sub €100.00 guitar.

Pots – quiet, slightly stiff (new!) – To be honest that point wasn’t worth making, they are fine!

Pick-ups – three good sounds. Neck through a good Bassman is a real surprise, very warm. Bridge takes mild overdrive very well and I keep it in the middle position almost all the time. My one comment is that they are lower in output to all my other guitars but I am going to put some “named” hum cancelling pickups in the guitar as it is getting so much use I’m planning to gig it when things get back to normal!
