I did the intonation to the guitar, it is something that I always do.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Made very well- dependability cannot honestly say because only had this a few weeks but solid Reliability How has it stood up over time?

Very pleased with this guitar-- much better quality than I expected Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? It's made like a brick, as stated earlier. The beautiful lettering on the headstock is nicely done "Custom" Telecaster. It feels like a solid, solid instrument. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I feel rock in my hands. This type wood is a throwback to the weight of Ash Teles and 70s Les Pauls, which leads me to believe it is a musical tank. General Your general opinion of this product. Simply surprised. I expected this ax to be like other quality Indonesian Squiers. Good basic product, with some tweaking. But it's the bomb. A heavy LP-like feel on the body, and pickups that are a total knock out surprise. Screaming when I want it, juicy and Tele-like when I want that. But there is a crazy nuts combo of the two. Of 20 guitars, this is my go-to ... Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? I play 20 to 35 percent faster (not that speed is everything, but I CAN play fast when the music and feel call for it) on this guitar than on most. The neck is a tad wider than on another Squier Tele (butterscotch deal) that I have, which is also very fast. I have many archtops, Schecters, Douglas, DiAngelico, Epis, and the speed on this one is unparallelled. I'm telling you, this is a shockingly good quality guitar, rivals American and Jap teles and strats...I've owned and played... Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? See above same question on Tone. It's a tone monster, with beautiful bluesy and jazzy tones clean, and screaming out through the OD section of a tube amp. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The blonde finish is nice. I'd like to see another color or two, or transparent clear finish, as well. I don't like red or black teles but some other colors to complement the blonde/yellow, would be nice. I do like this a lot, though. Action How was the action out of the box? OK. Japanese Fenders from the 80s have a reputation today for being some of the best guitars ever made. Folks, Indonesian guitars made today will have that same reputation in 20 years from now. Thus I own a dozen of them and this is one of them. The action is incredible. I normally do a truss rod adjustment, that's to be expected from the factory. But I don't remember having to do one on this guitar. What a shocking surprise this instrument has been.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? The quality is pretty good. It was crafted in Indonesia and my only complaint the knobs seem kind of cheap and the wiring seems kind of iffy,but ive had no problems yet. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Ive had this particular model for a year now and no problems. I change the strings once a month (they get played alot) i adjust the truss rod a few times a year (like any guitar) and it works great. General Your general opinion of this product. This is an excellent guitar for someone starting out or looking for a different tone. I purchased this as a cheap non-locking trem guitar. The fact is has P90s is icing on the cake Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Its a little on the heavy side (no Les Paul heavy but not as light as my Ibanez or Jacksons). The neck is pretty comfortable, its not a thin flat neck (which is what im used to) its sort of a U shape neck, its great for blues and rock. I cant really shred on it (but who would by this to shred?) Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The pickups are medium output, id compare them to a PAF. They do a great Sabbath in the middle position (Tony Iommi's origianl SG used P90s so i guess itd make sense). They can do a pretty good 'brown' sound and they clean up great. Beautiful chimey (a lil dark) cleans. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? It looked good, i got the yellow version. No cracks or chips in it, the paint by the heel where the neck meets the body did eventually crack a bit. It was just the paint not the wood, and its probably from some heavy string bending so in all honesty most likely my fault. But it doesnt effect the guitar. Action How was the action out of the box? The action was a tad high for my liking (this is primarily a blues, alternate tuning guitar for me) but it came with the tools and in 10 minutes it was perfect, not to high and not to low.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? This instrument should last a lifetime if maintained properly. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Still plays and looks like new! General Your general opinion of this product. Bought one about 3 years ago and I'm still in love with it!! I have 7 other guitars, and a recording studio, and for recordings I always end up using my Tele. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? The guitar is slightly heavy (which I like)....feels very solid...not cheap! The neck is the fastest of any of them. Controls feel good and are easy to get to. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Bright & snappy? Dark & smooth? You get it all with this guitar. You couldn't ask for better pickups for versatility. Action How was the action out of the box? I had to adjust one string which was set too close to the neck....that was it.
