TE-52 NA Vintage Series : I've always wanted a vintage tele - not disappointed!

I've always been a Fender strat man, but I've always had my eye on those orange vintage teles. I finally had a bit of spare change lying around and I had previously purchased a Harley Benton vintage bass which was amazing (to me - not a bass player). So I picked up the HB vintage tele and I am so happy that I did!!!

I used it primarily for recording and it has that awesome tele twang, but also sounds great as a smooth rhythm guitar, and even some good lead tones.

It's got a beefy neck, which is different than most strat necks, but it is still quite comfortable. Everything on the guitar is great, the hardware is nice, the neck and frets are perfectly good. I didn't even need to adjust the neck and I like low action guitars without any buzzing.

The pickups are good, and while not perfectly quiet when running into distortion, they are just as quiet as my Fender strat. All in all this is a great guitar!
