Keith's Telecaster ....
Posted by: nankerphlege ()

Keith plays a black 72 telecaster custom on this tour. I am assuming it is the same one from the seventies. I have a 52 reissue similar in setup to Micawbur, What do you think of the quality of the new 72 reissues fender is rereleasing these days? They are made in Mexico, do you think they are on par quality?

How do you think these guitars compares to Keith's Junior and the new LP juniors made?

Go Dawgs!

I'd be very VERY careful with a Mexico made Fender!

They usually lack of quality. make sure to have your hands on one to feel & play it.
compare it to a Korea made Tele too.
I don't know if they build 72' custums though.
They are superior in quality compared to mexican and in most cases even to American Standards!
I checked out a mexico and an American Tele while testing some Amps at my local dealer, but both where real aweful MoFos.

A couple of weeks ago I got a Fender lite ash Tele made in Korea - and I'm totally happy with her.
This was the first time I ordered a guitar over the internet and I was really worried^^ but with 30 days money back garantee, I gave it a try.
Also I read a lot of customer reviews on harmony central [www.harmony-central.com]
and came out with a very good instrument same or even better than the tenor of those reviews I read.

Out of the box came a really great guitar. Plug, tune and play - wow.
The setup and feel was perfect from the beginning.
After changing the string gauge I ajusted the truss rod without problems.
