TE-52 NA Vintage Series : This sounds exactly like a tele.

2 years ago

I played a 83 telecaster since 1991.

I killed it . The truss rod is stripped, the neck is unfixable. The fretts look like someone melted them. And God do I miss it.

I saw just a picture of the Harley Benton, and it was so pretty, when I found out what the price was , of course I was like "bullshit" I watched hundreds of videos on YouTube about this guitar and couldn't believe how good it sounded. So I said, the hell with it, I'm gonna buy it , I have nothing to lose.

It's been one year later and I really love this guitar it sounds exactly like a tele. It plays exactly like a tele . The 12th frett markers are the same as a 52 tele which I think I'm the only one to notice I have all kinds of really high quality brand name guitars I don't need to mention. And this guitar sits proudly among them . Best $200 I ever spent (that's with the shipping)

And I want to mention I haven't changed a single part. Just a little neck adjustment and lowered the action a little. Plays like a dream. It's in my top five favorite guitars that I own.
