Player Series Tele MN TPL : Not impressed

5 years ago

Edges are rough, but not as close as the nut!! This thing is sharp as razor.

Jack is somehow lose and you can't tighten it if you don't have proper tools, because it is Telecaster jack.

Pickguard is cheapest plastic (and I suspect the same for the nut).

On few places there are luthier pencil markings (or some tool), but it is sealed with transparent lacquer so you can't get to remove it without some (significant) work.

Frets are not all leveled perfectly, but it can be used.

Tuner for 6th string kept de-tuning so I bought complete set of new ones and it works now.

Sounds good. Looks nice. Invites you to play it.

But too much technical problems (mentioned above) for that kind of money.
