Frequently Asked Questions
It’s similar in warmth and clarity but with a slightly more refined and articulate high-end, lacking some of the raw grit of a very old Tele.
It’s genuinely comfortable—the transition from the wider 12in radius at the nut to the 9in radius at the heel allows for easier bending and complex chords.
The Wilkinson bridge provides a more modern feel with smoother vibrato action, while retaining the essential Telecaster twang, and often better tuning stability.
