Thin line 'Tele' for a song!
This guitar is a thing of beauty- you could even hang it on the wall as an art piece. The finish on mine is impeccable-just look at that quilting! Also the binding is first class. The neck is extremely comfortable to play (I have smallish hands) and the sound meets my every requirement. I've used this guitar as a test bed for all sorts of open tunings (even tried 'Keef's' 5string open G) and it's always delivered. A stunning looking guitar that plays as well as it looks,in a variety of musical genres. Even my wife likes it!
To get the verge pick up to change the covers and a wire fell off had to take it to a Guitar Tech now itâs back to being great
Harley Benton knocks it out of the park again
I can't believe the quality of this guitar in terms of playability, tone and finish Thanks for having such great budget guitars in lefthanded
Mediocre at best
Looks good. Neck heavy. Fretbuzz/ no set up whatsoever Sharp fret edges. Pickups found wanting. Dull and dead comes to mind. Prone to feedback even with low gain to clean amp settings. Played it once. Fixed what I could fix but it couldnât catch up with a Squier affinity tele feelwise. Sold it. But it did look good.
A P90 for lefties
I absolutely love this guitar.
It’s so comfortable to play it looks stunning and the P90s sound amazing.
Even unplugged it sounds so resonant.
One of my favourites for sure.
Great value and playability that would put a lot of the top names to shame.
Nice guitar for the price
Guitar looks and sounds good except for a slight buzzing on the B string. Seems that the string notch in the nut is cut too low, but can't really complain for that price.
Shame about the wires
Great guitar, shame more attention wasn’t paid to hiding the wires from view inside the guitar.
One of my favorites among the guitars I own
When I purchased the TE-90QM I wasn't quite sure what to expect regarding the quality of the instrument, or whether I would like it. Having owned it for a while now, it's the guitar I consistently pick up when I want to practice. I love the look of the guitar, I like the tone of the pickups, I've had no problems with the electronics aside from the jack needing to be tightened on one occasion, and the tuners work well. The tuning stability is good, and the nut is well cut. It was also intonated very well as shipped, and the finish on mine is basically flawless. That said, I have all of those things on my American Standard Strat and a few of my other guitars as well, but what sets this guitar apart for me from the others I own is the neck and fret work on this guitar as shipped were/are amazing (they put even my American Standard Strat to shame).
While I can't discount the idea that I was lucky, I doubt that's the case, given that my CST-24T is nearly as flawless. I'm not as big a fan of the finish on the back of the CST-24T's neck (I just prefer a satin finish, it's not a flaw of the instrument) and the fret work isn't as impeccable (though it's still very good).
Excellent guitar
This is the least expensive guitar in my collection of 15. It is very well put together. I live in Canada and after a period of acclimation I made trivial adjustments to set it to my preferences. Very good detail work including frets. The P90's are fine, but not premium. Still an outstanding value. Highly recommended. Arrived promptly.
one of the best budget guitars
Sounds 5-plus, well-built, but there is a slight gap between the neck and the deck ...
Another of the minuses I would like to note is that the potentiometers ... How to say, they correspond to the price, everything else does not correspond, the rest is much higher
