First off, let's talk about how acoustically resonant this
guitar is. The premium ash body has clear acoustic projection and a midrange
bark when unplugged that translates very well through the pickups. The
first thing we do is play it acoustically and let's just say that this Tele® is
the Martin D-28 of electric guitars. Of course this projection is aided by a string through body and threaded
steel bridge saddles that produce a tone that exceeds expectations.
The maple neck has a chunky C profile that fills the palm well and plays very
comfortably. The neck also features a set of 6105 medium jumbo fretwire and
TonePros Kluson style tuning machines. The instrument is finished in nitro
lacquer with a gloss finish on the body and a nicely worn in feeling satin
finish neck. The Fastback '52 is a real looker!!
Fastback Custom Guitars also come stock with "Mike & Mike's Guitar
Guards," which are made from recycled vinyl LPs! These pickguards are
hand-cut and lovingly shaped for a true-to-spec fit. Edges are sanded smooth,
lightly beveled and polished to a 1950′s Bakelite sheen, and great care is
taken to ensure a perfect, tight fit with all components. As an added bonus,
the record labels are individually lacquered to ensure that they weathers even
aggressive picking technique with aplomb! This guitar come with gig bag.
